Like most, I’d like to see us go 4-4-2 now, and would go for:

Arnold

Demi Hobson Coulson Ralph

Walsh Atkinson Dunne Akinola

Murphy Dalby​


I know it won’t happen, but it’s time to bring Akinola in from the cold, he’s proven at this level and we might as well put him in the shop window now. Walsh looked good last season when he played and has a better end product than Egbri who works hard but often fails to deliver.
I like that lineup but would like to see Bridge in there for Atkinson.
 
I am having real trouble signing into the OS to buy tickets, does anyone know of an email address that I can contact to unlock or whatever needs to happen to get it sorted please?

Waste of time I'm afraid.You're better off getting to the ground early. (I could give you a couple oe email addresses but nobody would respond to them today).

Edit:-One thing that might help you is using your 5 digit fan number given to you in your original registration confirmation rather than your email address -works for me.

I was afraid that might be the case, might be a bit of a rush for me tonight then, hope there are no very early goals, just in case!
 
Got to shake things up;

--------------- ARNOLD ---------------
------------------------------------------
JD --- HOBSON -- COULSON -- RALPH
------------------------------------------
WALSH --- DUNNE --- BRIDGE -- ATKINSON
------------------------------------------
------------ DALBY ---- RUSH ----------

Play Atkinson in a kind of "Petts-role" and have Ralph pushing up more from lb.

Walsh more attackign minded on right and JD less likely to go forward, so have some cover there.
 
Need more energy and pace. Any team with half decent wingers will make hay against us. The defending v Halifax was abysmal.
 
Does anyone know if the Southend High School car park has been open on match days this season?
 
Arnold/Seadon
JD Hobson Coulson Ralph
Phillips Dunne Bridge
Egbri Dalby Walsh

4-3-3 going forward and 4-5-1 going back wards, dunne Sitting with Phillips and Bridge giving licence to roam forward

Aldershot are quite a pacey team by all accounts so we'll need to be wise to that and Corie Andrews has had a decent start for them upfront.

Can't see a win, but then again I never can.
