12 August 2010

OK, folks - 48 hours until Town start their new career in that Conference. Woods has signed a whole team's worth of players and nearly a whole team's worth of players have left. He's got about 25 to choose from. And according to the Telewag he's singing a Capello (groan) and won't announce to his squad who has been picked until the last minute. We know Atkinson, Gobern and Ademeno (who is both gutted and heartbroken, the Telegraph reveals) are on the injury list. And neither we, nor the squad apparently, know a lot more.

Your Guest Diarist is experiencing mild collywobble sensations - I woke up in the middle of the night and my brain was already in full flow discussing whether we have enough height and strength to deal with this bully-boy league. Has Woodses gone for too much footballing brain ahead of footballing brawn? Do we need a pig's head simmering for a few hours to produce some luscious jelly to feed our lads up? There's only one way to find out now - play some games and see what happens. But don't say I didn't warn you: the opposition will be aggressive and our triangles will have to be quick and measured if we are going to be able to play round these hulks. See yer.
