| Super U's to prevail at the County Ground against the Reds 14:41 - Sep 24 with 868 views | durham_exile |
After the disappointment of a poor home performance against Crawley last Saturday, Head Coach Hayden Mullins is again missing from the U’s set up after testing positive for COVID-19. We all wish HM a speedy recovery and wish Alex Dyer well as he attempts to keep the U’s unbeaten Away record going.
Incidentally I think that not only will he succeed in that aim but also the U’s will secure a win by 3-1.
AD has some decisions to make with his squad selection. Miles Welch-Hayes and Ryan Clampin are both fit and should return to the side whilst Big Frank who celebrates his birthday should finally end the scoring drought that has affected his form this season.
Should Welch-Hayes not be passed fit then Cameron Coxe will again play at Full back. Luke Chambers is ready to return after his enforced one game ban, but I would keep him on the bench for Saturdays game. Charlie Daniels looked off the pace against Crawley and failed to cut out the cross which led to their solitary goal. Unfair perhaps but in a tight game that one missed challenge proved very costly.
With no movement on the Striker front and the goal machine Richard Kone content to ply his trade in the 9th level of English Football we carry on with our current squad. Sadly, there is no word about Michael Folivi’ s recovery from his achilles injury so we do not know whether he will be offered a contract any time soon. This is a shame because he is a useful and pacy striker.
Otherwise, the team should remain relatively unchanged.
I reckon the following in a 4,3,2,1 formation for the game at the County Ground against the Reds of Swindon Town coached by Ben Garner:
George
Welch-Hayes Eastman Smith Clampin
Wiredu Skuse Chilvers
Sears Jasper
Nouble
Subs:
Chambers Turner Hannant Tchamadeu Dobra Judge Daniels
Swindon, despite their very public pre-season problems and the parting of the ways with John McGreal started the season very well and were unbeaten for 8 games. They lost their last home match to mercurial Port Vale and scrambled a point at Northampton last weekend.
Garner reckons he has a fully fit squad which includes Anthony Grant who flirted with the possibility of playing for the U’s whilst at Plymouth but changed his mind and stayed with the Devonians eventually moving on down a league!
Wessex will be attending his first game of the season at the County Ground (a relatively local journey for him), and I hope that he witnesses a victory for the Super U’s.
The weather in Swindon tomorrow will be a warm 20 degrees Celsius with light cloud and less than a 10% chance of rain.
We need to get the Home Form monkey off our back and get the chance next week against Salford but tomorrow is all about another impressive Away performance at Swindon.
Goal scorers in the 3-1 win, Big Frank, Sylvester Jasper, and a fierce drive from Ryan Clampin.
Safe journey to the travelling faithful.
Enjoy the game.

Mr and Mrs Witham will be there. Got my diesel at inflated price but we'll be there.
Having missed Home matches because of work and being in the land of the Prince Bishops we haven't seen the U's lose and Saturday looks fair for a win. |  | | |

I'm OK with the first seven except that I would use Tom ahead of Chambers.
Can't get excited about the other four because they are not strikers. We need a chap who knows where the goal is, like Bonne does. Can't get why Tovide features each game but never gets a go!
Anyway best of luck to em again today. It might be tough there. |  |

Hope you enjoy the game Pinault
I would also like to see Tovide get some game time.
Junior Tchamadeu had a cameo at Barrow and looks really sharp also he would do to play further forward BUT we still need a striker!!!!!

Gerry - I know but it is another point.
We now must get things sorted at home.
If Michael Folivi is fit soon we can give him a contract.
If Kone gets a Work Permit we can sign him.
Lots of options but how much do we want promotion.

When you don't score goals Burnsie and when you don't look like scoring goals and when three of the seven we've managed in ten games were two dubious penalties and the most bizarre 35yd own goal of all time then....... 3 points off the bottom is the best we can expect! | |

In all seriousness the club must get a striker and quick
We are simply not going to score enough goals without someone.
Each game that goes by is only worsening our chances of promotion.
Get it sorted and quick.
