Match Day Thread Batten Down The Hatches Chairboys v Pirates 18th Aug 18

Its six years since that August day when the lightning struck and a lot of water has passed under the bridge since then so we welcome the Pirates to Adams Park for the third league game of the season and both teams are looking for their first win and after good results in midweek in the cup hopes are high.
Gaz has a good selection headache with several players stepping up to the plate in the midweek cup game and players returning from injury.
I will be at AP for this one looking forward to seeing the new signings and good football some goals from the Beast and maybe Kashket and the defence keeping a clean sheet for our first three points of the season

 

Looks like the weather has changed for their visit

 

I have arranged for a dodgy Health & Safety Officer to be on stand-by

 

And i'll be doing a Somerset rain dance after a couple of local ciders on Saturday lunchtime .

 

So here is the team in full...

Starting XI: Allsop, Harriman, Jacobson, McCarthy, El-Abd, Thompson, Gape, Bloomfield, Williams, Mackail-Smith, Akinfenwa.

Subs: Ma-Kalambay, Stewart, Bean, Saunders, Morris, Freeman, Kashket.

ffs 0-1 after 3 minutes

 

Ffs 0-2

 

It's gonna be a long season

 

Oh f***ing great my Sunday lunchtime in the pub will be hell at this rate

 

Two corners two goals

 

Are we playing that bad or just can't defend ffs

 

Please don't do a rain dance and please no thunder and lightning.

Oh, and please don't score the next goal

Thank you.

Ok don't take the piss now

 

The worrying thing for you is our subs. Bennett and Rodman are being rested who can create and score goals from nothing. Both should be 1st names on the team sheet but both being rested. I am sure they will come on at some point

 

Take it easy on us cj we don't need a hammering
