Cinderford Town v Chippenham Town

[discodave]

This will be a tough game!!!
Will be interesting to see how we do, i see Josh Egan plays for them, he did well for us last season, also Aide Mings is there director of football, i remember him at Gloucester.

[Big Mac]

We will see what we are made of tomorrow!!

[Big Mac]

Played very well today, Jack Camm , Warren Archer impressed most for me. good 3-1 win.

[jamesdavis]

Great game today we've got the best team that has been at the causeway in many many of years,i for one am excited of are prospects this season

[discodave]

Didnt think there was much between the two teams even before the sending off.
Jack Camm played well, so did Sam O'Sullivan when he came on.
Think Dean Lee and Nick Hancock work hard but both need to learn how to pass the ball, to me Nick just kicks the ball anywhere, doesnt think about what hes doing.
All in all played well, looking good for the start of the season.

[discodave]

For what its worth . theses are my ratings.

John - 8 Didnt have a great deal to do, but did everything asked of him, no fault for the goal.

Archer - 8, Solid at right back, won everything thrown at him calm on the ball.
G.Lewis - 6, Not a great display, thought he lacked pace, got beat a few times and caught out of position
Harrison - 7, worked hard won alot of his tackles, also got caught out of position a few times.
M.Smith -7, Solid at left back, not much got away from him.
D.Lee- 7 , Loads of energy , always looks a threat, just needs to use the ball better.
N.Hancock - 6 , Again a very busy player but hasnt got a clue what to do with the ball when he gets it, gave the ball away to much.
G.Bater - 7 ,looks comfortable on the ball and pick his passes well, would like to see him finish a game though!
L.Smith - 8 You can tell he as played at a higher level doesnt waste energy or the ball, always in the right place.
J.Camm - 9 , Full of energy, always looked a threat and didnt give the ball away.
L.Sommers -7 , won everything in the air did well.

Subs.
Evans - 7 came on for Bater, did ok didnt get on the ball much.
Sam O'Sullivan - 8 looked good going forward , and when he lost the ball he always won it straight back.
Wilson - 7 Some good touches when he got it to feet, played well.
M.Barnes - 7 always looked a threat, took his goal really well.
A.Lewis- 7 , so calm on the ball plays the ball out of defence well.
A.Malcolm - 7 played really well, got forward well.

Think thats everyone, our bench looks strong which is good, not sure where Randell is or why Tait didnt get on, but all in all very good!!

[kfc]

Tait has a tight Hamstring and was not risked, Randall missing due to family illness

[Big Mac]

think the team that started against Chippenham may start against Paulton, though i would drop Hancock and Dean Lee, bring in Sam O'Sullivan and Randell.

Still can't call the starting team for the season but heard rumours BIRD was signing yesterday maybe way off the mark but who knows

I heard that one last week, if its true that will be an amazing signing!!!!! with him Lee Smith thats two quality signings at this level, cant believe we are only 20/1 to win the league!

[jamesdavis]

The odds people didn't look us up to well I'm guessing ! And if bird does come we've go a big chance with the experience him and smith bring will help us massively big big season ahead I think ?

[Big Mac]

where did you hear the Bird rumour from? a good source?

[jamesdavis]

Over heard few people talking Saturday and seemed to be confident

[Big Mac]

Well if it does happen then we will have a great shot at the title , just keeping all the players happy!!!

[jamesdavis]

That's football over to peters
