First Game Preview

In entirely predictable fashion, I woke up on this morning (Wednesday) with 9 players for the first match of the season. A quick text message to the tune of 'anyone know anyone' and we're up to 11 in no time. So, blazing a trail for West End Saints on Thursday at the Sports Centre will be:

1 Colin Day
2 Steve Paul
3 Shaun Tongs
4 Nigel Hubbard
5 Mike Head
6 Glen de la Cour
7 Jonjo Stovell
8 Phil Jewell
9 Luke Blackwell (Jonjo says he's a good bowler - Do we trust Jonjo ?)
10 Rob Saunders
11 Geoff Edwards

We're playing against Kerala and I know nothing at all about them so we'll see what happens.

When you issue an 'anyone' request, you inevitably pick up players for future matches who can't play in this one and we have secured the services of Andy Reading for at least some of the games. Andy goes by the nickname of Gollum and supports Pompey but he's alright... honest!. His 'signing' means that we satisfy the league quota requirements of having at least one Pompey supporter in the squad as Lee, our usual Token Skate is never around much these days.

Come on the Village!
