Ardleys is king ,wombles going up!

3-0 Meades

No surprise Dembele went off for Belgium. Had a very poor game

2-0 up already Deji and Pinnock

Wombles 2-0 up already.

so much for the Woking team sheet then! Pigott for Hanson makes sense anyway.

Pigott starts. No Hanson!

Hanson starts tonight! no Pigott though?

I do like Barcham but his big weakness is his crossing. If Pinnock and one other wide man can cross and get back to defend, Barcham may find his game time reduced this season - unless he can play in a spot just behind the strikers which is a possibility.

EFL regulations seem to indicate more than 4 loans allowed as 5 can be named to a match. Regulation 52.4.1 A maximum of 5 Players registered on a Temporary Loan Transfer can be named in the Players listed on a team sheet for any individual match played under the auspices of The League. This maximum shall reduce to 4 Players where a Club names a Player on the team sheet who is registered on an Emergency Goalkeeper Loan; and 52.4.2 No Club may sign more than 4 Players on a Temporary Loan Transfer from another Club (or club) in any Season, of which no more than 2 Players may be over the age of 23.

We have to replace seven players who were regular starters this summer. That is unlikely to work even for a team with a better than average budget let alone ours. To steal from our sponsors I think we will battle bravely against relegation this year. Not doom-mongering and not lambasting Neal but accepting things as they are.

Evening all. wonder if anyone here might point me/suggest where I might find documentation that highlights/summarises the planning process that we have gone through on NPL. It came up at work where we are moving towrds building a new THQ and the lack of knowledge of such processes was apparent. So I'd like to have/prepare something which I could put through (using AFCW experience and showing the club in a good light) to educate and inform. any ideas?

Watson?? I'd prefer Holmes

I wonder if NA will be tempted to play 3-5-2 this season. He has already stated that Hanson needs a partner up front, probably Kwesi if fit. They will need service from the wings, which in a 4-4-2 will require 2 energetic and disciplined central midfielders. Mentioning no names, but I don't feel that the manager's current first choice central midfield personnel offer much in the way of energy. In a 3-5-2 he can play 3 central midfielders and 2 wing backs. Barch may struggle for a place in this set up, though, as he cannot play the wing back role.

I heard our new signings have been trapped somewhere over the last few weeks so now they have been rescued we should expect a few signings in the next couple of days.

Watson and Pinnock down the right hand side - better than Fuller and Lyle? Probably less to worry about defensively in the last 30 minutes of games, attacking threat TBD.

os80s -- Moreover, if SIbbick gets a few games it will also add to his experience if we need to draft him in as an emergency centre-back, a position I believe he actually prefers.

Thank you to On This Day for putting "who let the Dons out?" into my head all day.

the best thing about the young right back loanee is that if he proves average then sibbick will get games, no older experienced pro who cant be dropped like fuller was to compete with, hopefully a real up in the air battle for who plays will do both players and us a lot of good

Will Brighton tickets be on sale on the day?

"Tish and pish"? Gimps, don't we have regulations about this sort of language? Ban him!

How many players have we had on loan from Reading over the years? Obviously Tanner and there was Angus MacDonald from my neck of the woods, now playing for Hull City. Any others?

KD... there you go again even if funny ...Getting ateam ready to get out of League 2... Hey he might surprise you and we have a good season in L1.

Tish and pish, Diddy. I'm actually optimistic Ardley is putting together a decent side to get us out of League 2...

Kentish Don ...You are like a gloom monger and seem to find fault with everything! Don't you ever look on the bright side of life and think I support a football team that was taken away and which came out of the ashes and has climbed all the way to League 1 and what a roller coaster!! :-)
