This is going to be so nerve wracking. We are not playing with the style that we displayed earlier and in fact have been quite ordinary at times..to much lumping the ball forward and conceding silly goals especially late on. But nonetheless we have scored in every game we have played and whilst some players may be getting tired, others are stepping up to the plate.
For most of the players it has been a unique experience this season playing in front of such large crowds and with such great expectations, but they have dealt with the pressure so well, thanks largely to the management team and Hopey.
Spencer are on a good run and have only lost once at home this season, I believe. All the ingredients for a very fraught 90 mins plus probably 10 additional, if the scores are level.

They drew 1-1 at home with Buckingham last night - a good result for Buckingham really.
It will be a massive test, but i'm sure we can come away with at least a point to secure promotion.

Could we be looking at a 1000 fans for this one, either way, is their ground able to cope with the numbers?
After all Burton and Thrapston barley coped with the 500 or so, granted only 3 sides to the ground, but Spencer don't look to have a very big stand, so its going to be pitch side only really.

My step-brother (Ryan Dove) is out. Broke his foot last night!

I have developed an excellent coping strategy designed to get me through a nerve wracking 90 minutes. I shall be very drunk.

That's bad news, hope he recovers soon. I see he scored last night before his injury, so this could be good news for us.TheIncognitoKid wrote:My step-brother (Ryan Dove) is out. Broke his foot last night!
