Calling all Digglers, due to Bob's absence I will be stepping into his rather large boots for this, our second game against the mighty Skeletor; I felt we were really unlucky not to get anything out of the game last week as it was our best performance to date. Because of this improved performance I am not going to change too much, I am forced into a couple of changes due to the aforementioned missing Bob who is at Fratton Park hoping Pompey can restore some pride after a disappointing spell in Europe, and Weasel who is also missing for this one. So without any further ado here is this weeks starting line-up:
GK - Chris
DF - Ben H
DF - Ben F
MF - Adam
MF - James
CF - Neil
Substitutes:
Paul
Ed
Keir
I'm going to stick Chris in goal for this one as he impressed when he was last between the sticks, let me know if you need gloves so I can hopefully arrange to borrow Bob's. The defensive partnership of Mr Harris & myself worked well last week so I'm not going to mess with that. Adam, I want you dogging the midfield, let's not kid ourselves we are going to be under the cosh in this one so I need you playing like a third defender (please go with me on this one guys), put in some crunching tackles & try to feed James & Neil when possible. James, because of the heavily defensive tactics I'm going for I need you to work as the attacking midfielder getting at them on the counter-attack, look for the space & we will try to feed you. Neil, this is going to be a tough game, I foresee us spending a lot of time defending so your role is key, when you get a chance hammer it! Unless James is right up there with you in which case use your judgement.
Substitutes
I will judge the situation on the night depending on who turns up. Provisionally Paul is a replacement for Neil, Ed for Adam & Keir for myself but we'll see how everyone is fairing on the night.
Ok guys lets meet at 9:15 so I can talk to you in more depth about your positions, I do believe we can frustrate Skeletor if we keep our discipline.
Go balls deep!!!

A grand Plan there Ben. Well thought out.
Defensively orieantated should frustrate Skeletor also a few swift kicks on the sly should help, I take it you wanna catch them on the the break? we'll need James and Neil to be at their best. Lets hope our legs are up to the challenge.
Could you get the gloves from Bob because the ICE planet gloves that Chris borrowed last time were a bit rubbish.
Go Balls Deep!
looks good mate. wish i could be there but im sure chris will do a great job. its a solid looking team.
hopefully last week we really turned the corner and found a base to build from.
let me know how you get on. chris has the gloves now aswell. good times.
Go Balls Deep
What time are we planning on getting there? 9.10/15 ish for a warm up?
Go Balls Deep!
Looking good there pinky. Adam the destroyer in midfield, a bit like a lone he-man against a horde of evil skeletors. Please don't steal my phone this week. Thanks
