Confirmed friendly vs Sutton Sports II 14/12

Southend High School for Boys

10.30am KO

Meeting at the ground NO LATER than 9.45am.

Hilary - lemme know if you need picking up from Southend Central at around 9.30.

Please confirm your availability.

Last time we played SSII they beat us 4-2 but it was arguably our best performance and best second half to date. SSII are a good team and have had an OK season so far but they are DEFINITELY beatable. (especially without their rock of a right back playing for them http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif )



NB. If you are not there by 9.45 you won't be starting the game. You have been warned.

NB. If you don't believe we can win this game don't put your name down as available.

Plus anyone else I've missed

Oh and did I mention Benjy ?? ?? ?? ??

We had a nice easy 2-1 win today followed by me winding them up in the changing room afterwards about next week's game.

Sutton Sports aren't a bad team. We've won the last three league games we've had although we're now out of both cups.

But Sutton Sports are definitely BEATABLE. They are solid at the back but are not that strong up front. The game is going to be won or lost in the midfield. If we can dominate this we can win the game. I feel confident we can do the business and finally get off the mark next week !

[Smithy]

Wont be able to make any trainings etc or matches until after christmas due to christmas and family visit's etc so i'll cya after crimbo http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif

[Benjy91]

I will be there on Sunday, but not sure yet if I will be playing. Some lump lunged at my ankle on saturday and it is nice and swollen. At the moment I am having problems walking, but maybe by Sunday i could be alright, I will have to keep you updated.

[southend_utd_fan]

It would be good if some of the SZ players used Barry as an role model (on the fitness side of things, not the football aspect ...)

[new bloke]

I would love to join you Barry, but,,, On Saturday's I start my day at 6am in the Gym 6.45 would normally consist of 18 holes of Golf, so you see I would love to join you but it is just fitting it all in http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Leeboy]

In all seriousness I was thinking of going for a run on Saturday morning, but then realised it may affect Sunday, so going tomorrow night for a run around the block instead.

[MrB]

I prefer the boid's treadmill in the warmth of her flat. Not that it seems to be doing much good so I've now added stairclimbing in my house (luckily my neighbour has moved out!).

[The General]

I will be there and playing.

Looking forward to it. Me and Harris both played extremely well when we played them last time in midfield as i had a bit more freedom in midfield. Probably been my best partner so far (as i can attack and hog!) http://www.shrimperzone.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif and Barry sits deeper. Still havent played with Dan (no not like that!) and seeing as us 2 get on it would be good to get a game with him ... even though he loves the glory upfront!

You'll also be pleased to know that I've confirmed GNH as our referee on Sunday.

I'd also like to extend warm congratulations to Kev for "volunteering" to do the kit on Sunday. In return for him 'assuming' he will be starting the game I've 'assumed' he'll have no problems with the kit. Let's hope it is not too wet and muddy on Sunday.
