We have a squad of 7 for this match at the moment as follows: Garry Cover (GK)
Alan Barnard
Ivan Bass
George Stahlmann
Danny Hagan
Daniel Cascoe
Ollie Blake
In addition to the 7 players listed above, we also need a forward to make the squad up to 8...we don't want 9 for this match as because of our two defeats in our first two 'Champions' League matches, it is now a fitness exercise as opposed to us being in contention to win the League !
However, Daniel Daley is working, Jack Bangs owes too much subs and wants to save some money, John Scouller wants to go down the gym , and George's mate Jack Tompkins (who played up front against Inter Trac this morning) is unavailable (I think ?).
I believe Lexton Harrison is also not keen on playing in this match for some reason, so if anybody else is about who can play up front, please let myself or Trevor know asap so that John, Lexton and Jack (Bangs) can have a 'night off'.
Martin Cruickshank has been in touch this evening asking to play, but I'm not sure if Trevor will allow that unless he clears a lot of money off his backlog. I have told Martin to phone him. (Not up to me).

Trev says Martin can play tonight as our 8th player as long as he pays at least £10.00.
I am just waiting for a reply from Martin as to whether he can afford that or not.
Martin is playing. I will give him a lift from Edmonton Green as Terry is not playing.
Also, Cascoe is bringing a prospective new player, Si Allen...a forward/attacking midfielder.
So...we now have a squad of 8 as follows, but with no keeper: Alan Barnard
Ivan Bass
George Stahlmann
Danny Hagan
Daniel Cascoe
Ollie Blake
Martin Cruickshank
Si Allen
Personally, I think as they all played full matches yesterday, two out of Barney, Hagan & George should go in goal for half a match each, or all three of them take a turn for 15-20 minutes each. That's what other teams quite often do. Up to Trev though.
Trev has confirmed that he wants Jacko in goal as he would rather have a squad of 9 with a keeper than a squad of 8 without a keeper.
So all sorted now.
