Mornig Gents.
This week we're against mid table COnnect FC who are also Chad's team though he hasn't been at work for a week so I don't know if he'll be playing and to be fair we're far to good for him anyway. This week we have a bit of a problem fielding a full team. Ben. H is in Thailand and has just had a baby girl Jessica Magret Harris, who is very cute (I have to assume she gets that from her Mother) so congratualtions to him and his lady from the Digglers. Bob and Weasel are out this week, Bob with his bad arm and I'm not sure about Weaseal surfice to say the sooner they're back the better. Neil is Working and I have a feeling so is Chris. So thats leaves us possibly one short. If anybody has any friends or relatives who fancy a game please let me know.
This is the team.
GK - Josh
DF - Adam
DF - Paul
MF - Ben. F
MF - John
CF - James
We all know our roles by now but the big change is that I am releasing Floyd from some of his defencive duties as he is our top scorer. John could you keep an eye on the defence of me and Adam while linking up the play. otherwise no change go out there and enjoy Digglers.
Oh yeah Ben was right we kick off at 7.35 so there around 7.15 - 20 ish please.

Team Info for Artmediabratilava (???)
Righ then guys congratualations on getting our first point last week it really should have been three points to us their goal was a bit dubious, but we live and learn. Well done ben for opening your account with the only goal of our season, I'm looking at James, Chris and Neil to follow suit soon with goals set up, obivously by amazing passes from John, Adam and myself. Ahem.
We can't rest on our laurrels though, we may be playing the bottom team but the old saying that an animal is at its most dangerous when cornered is very apt here. We cannot go to sleep because we haven't got this in the bag yet. Last week we were the better team and were very unlucky not to get more from the game though I think it has done the team the world of good after a shaky start we've had the proff that we are a good team and that we can play.
The plan this week is exactly the same as last week, tight and simple. We had some beatiful passing going on last week and were unlucky not to score more. So heres the team.
GK - Josh
DF - Ben. F
DF - Paul
MF - James
MF - John
CF - Neil (Jelly Fish)
Subs - Adam, Chris
Josh - Calm and measured passingagain please, you were very steady at the back don't be afraid to order us around you can see beeter than anyone else in the team use that we won't be offended.
Paul/Adam - Last man back, last man forward, go towards the attacker try and force them out wide and tackle them giving the rest of the team the opotunity to get back in time. Simple easy passing to get the ball rolling. don't move too far up the pitch during attacks.
Ben. F/Adam - Furthest defender forward, when attacking go through the middle the MF's will go either side of you. Defending whatch the runners, cover the last man back by cutting off the other attackers, we did it well last week so I know you can do it this week.
John/Chris - Little bit more of a defensive role compared to James, John I noticed you do this anyway, when Floyd goes forward make sure the last man back is not starnded with too many people to mark. Forward in the attacks on the oposite side to James either left or right. John you had a cracking game last week so your confidence will be sky high I expect another solid performnace. Chris if you play take up position on the left, you got a sweet left foot espescially when passing from the left. Both of you don't be afraid to shoot! wahts the worse that can happen eh?
James/Chris - Same as last week get into the oposition and shoot shoot shoot. you attack and defend like you life depends on it, I like that same again please.
Neil - The jellyfish is back, we had a noticable increase in shots on goal, long may that continue. you did brilliantly at holding the ball up for the MF' to stream past so contiue with that.
To be fir the subs arn't set in stone and we'll see what happens. I will again leave it up to the individuals to decide when they need a rest because it seemed to work well last week.
Any problems drop me a line or email.
C'mon your beatiful Digglers!!!!

Stevie Wanderers match tactics
Evening Gents.
Right the team we are playing 2moro are the team above us. They are only above us on goal difference (that is we have conceeded one more than them).
Gents this is our game, we have a point to prove over the past 3 games we haven't deserved the treatment we have got, last week we didn't cover ourselves in glory. There was some tension which I hope is now water under the bridge.
This is the plan for 2moro.
GK - 'Jedi' John
DF - Ben. F
DF - Paul
MF - John
MF - James
CF - Neil
Chris will be used as a super sub either coming on for me or in the middle. I will leave it up to the individual as to when or if they want to be subbed, but I would rather you come off for a few mins and catch your breath rather then make silly mistakes or rushed passes.
The plan this week is "Keep it Simple". Simple passes let the ball do the work we need to conserve our energy.
I'm going to be the furthest man back probably not join in too many attacks. Ben when we attack you go up through the middle and let John and James stay either side, Not on the wings more of a 3 through the middle just be warned you'll need to bust a gut to get back during your goal celebration!!
James and John I afraid you'll be running a lot supporting Neil up front and Ben and Myself in defense. Try not to storm out to the wings because there isn't the support, play it how you see it but I want a direct approach this week, Simple.
Neil I want you to play just above the midfield if you can hold up the ball let James and John (you'll meet him) go past you, we need the Jelly fish.
Chris you'll either be at the back instead of me or in the middle.
EVERYBODY DEFENDS!!! you get a man you stick to him, anybody see's somone not marking or loosing the man let them know lets talk to each other, whatch the runners you see them going shout them out.
There is no reason why we can't get a result from this one WE ARE A CRACKING TEAM on our day (we be FC Select and RTS Europe through team work and didcipline this is our game we deserve it)
Come on you digglers.
