Oh yeah i know what you mean, not generally when I post up finally but where i do my post game by game for the update and then if Laptop messes up I have to do them again and its annoying at time when it changes from a win to a loss or draw

Yeah, hopefully they both turn out as wins. The plus side is that Banana and Redgrave are still fully fit as it stands, so that's always useful.

Well lets hope the captain scores some vital goals for you ;)
 
thanx for getting back to me.
no worries buddy, much appreciated
 
Banana bending in a banana over the wall. That's one way of celebrating not getting poisoned!

Teamsheet: GLOUCESTER CITY (H) (30/9/14)

(4-2-3-1 WIDE)

REDGRAVE

BANANA BURHEIM SCHWARZENEGGER FIREBIRD

PATRIK YAKIN II

LITMANEN BIGGUN BAKER

POST

Bench: THAME, HARRISON, MASON, PETERS, ROBERTS

All change again, mainly through fitness levels. Patrik, Biggun and Post are all given another chance, whilst Banana looks to continue his impressive form, and keep ahead of Thunderfoot. Firebird plays ahead of Whyte, and needs to make an impression. Post takes the armband for today.

Both Biggun and Baker had disallowed goals early on as we pressed hard, but for little reward. Yakin II also smashed one in from long range that the keeper did well to tip away.

With it level at 0-0 at the break, a tactical tweak was needed. Biggun was told to push further up the pitch, whilst Yakin II was given more licence to roam across the pitch.

Unfortunately, an OG by Burheim set us back, in a game where we were being matched. It was going to take something special to bring us level, and substitute Roberts provided it. A thumping drive from just outside the box restored parity.

We nearly gave away another cheap goal though, and Firebird did well to head off the line to keep it level. As the clock ticked over onto 86 mins, Banana curled a cross into the box, and found Roberts lurking in the box to swiftly tap the ball into the net. That goal proved decisive, as we take the points from one of the most open matches so far, real end to end stuff.

Ratings: Redgrave 7, Banana 7.4, Burheim 6.7, Schwarzenegger 6.7, Firebird 6.8, Patrik 7.1, Yakin II 6.7, Litmanen 6.5, Biggun 6.6, Baker 6.9, Post 6.6. Subs: Mason 6.8, Peters 6.7, Roberts 8.6



 
Seems I've got to sort my feet out inside our box. Another O.G. :( 3 points still tho. Guess I'm buying Roberts a coke this time!

Make it Diet bro! :P Don't worry, you may be dropped but maybe only for 1 match. :)

The first OG was a combination of Burheim and Arnie. This one was a slide tackle into the bottom corner, no doubt who's it was this time.
 
A quality finish in other words! I'll blame the first one on Arnie then, his massive biceps were blocking my view!

Teamsheet: GUISELEY (H) (1/10/14)

REDGRAVE

THUNDERFOOT HARRISON SCHWARZENEGGER WHYTE

PALMER YAKIN II

MASON PETERS BAKER

ROBERTS

Bench: THAME, BURHEIM, LITMANEN, DANCE, WILLIAMS

Strong line up out for this one, as we play our last match before our international break. Roberts has a point to prove after being dropped by Wales, and Harrison comes in for the unfortunate Burheim. Redgrave continues in goal after some good form, but Thames will seize upon any opportunity given.

We deservedly went 1-0 down, after we started really quite badly. Roberts managed to get us a goal back, nodding home from Masons cross, but we were still unimpressive.

The substitution of Dance for Peters did seem to liven the team up, but the scores remained level. Dance caused no end of problems though, and earned a penalty in the 70th min, which Thunderfoot finished with aplomb. The lead lasted 4 minutes though as Stockdill escaped his marker to draw Guiseley level. The game wasn't over though, and a late header from Palmer put us ahead with 2 mins to go. Roberts then fired home in injury time, to give us a 4-2 win.

Ratings: Redgrave 6.8, Thunderfoot 7.6, Harrison 6.8, Schwarzenegger 7, Whyte 6.7, Palmer 7.8, Yakin II 6.4, Mason 8.2, Peters 6.4, Baker 6.7, Roberts 8.8. Subs: Litmanen 6.7, Dance 6.8, Williams 6.9
