As far as I know, it was 'agreed ?' in the changing rooms on Sunday that we will still train tomorrow night despite the Arsenal v. Barcelona match with the following players all (presumably ?) attending: Simon Jackson
Martin Worthington
Alan Barnard
John Scouller
Lee King (although I'm not sure who is giving him a lift ?) Tom Watts
Danny Hagan
Colin Bester (despite being an Arsenal supporter !) Myself
That's 9, which means we can still have a decent session with Jacko in goal and a 4 v 4 attack v. defence, although if any of the following non-Arsenal supporting players can turn up as well, then it will be even better: Terry Moore...Has a work do on at the moment but might be able to get out of it ? Tim Beeden...Supports Spurs but I think likes to watch 'big matches' on TV ? Andrew Warmerdam...To test out his neck injury ? Jim Arrowsmith...Keeps saying he will attend training but then has last-minute work or family commitments.
Please post here or e-mail me if you can attend or not.
Terry Moore is definitely not coming training either, so we ideally need one of Tim, Warmers or Jim to turn up to make it worthwhile.
If it goes down to just me, Jacko & Barney turning up (which is quite possible), then I'll leave it up to those two if they still want to train or not.
Since it's likely to be dry tomorrow (according to the forecast), and the fact that the club still has to pay 50 odd quid regardless of whether we use it or not, I'm quite happy to come along and shoot a Jacko for an hour if it's just 3 of us (which isn't that likely, is it?).

Well we know Danny Hagan won't come training if there is going to be less than 9 there. He has already gone on record saying that.
Also, unless somebody drives up to Turkey Street to pick Lee up (which I can't), then he won't be there either. John Scouller lives in Edmonton and nobody who is coming training lives anywhere near Turkey Street.
Somebody has just texted Trev (at Arsenal) telling him he is not coming training tonight because nobody is going to be there and he is a bit 'stiff' after Sunday anyway.
Trev doesn't know who it is as he never enters players' phone numbers in his mobile phone contacts list.
I am guessing it is John Scouller as he was calling me 'Trev' on Sunday...despite my avatar appearing when I post on this Forum. (He must have been reading this Forum as he wouldn't have known 'nobody' was going training otherwise).
I have had no reply from Lee yet. If he says he is in Turkey Street, then he won't be coming training either. If he is in Edmonton, I can pick him up with Tom and we'll have 7 there tonight...which will be o.k. as there are some 3 v. 3 drills we can do with Jacko in goal.
