    Hopefully the two great results on the road will help the lads to kick on at home and end the dismal run of defeats.

    I think we've had a tough start, because all the sides who have nicked points at the Mem have been picking up some impressive away wins. So are we now, so I'm looking forward to a run of home wins now, starting with our friends from Wycombe...

    I'll second that - given that we play them twice in a week, it would be nice to think we can beat them both times, but that seems a lot to expect. For me, the important game is next Saturday so we can push on up the table.

    It's going to be a big game with a big crowd on Sat - Tuesday will be a sideshow but whatever happens it's going to be hard.

    If there are 22 players still on the pitch at the end of both games it will be a miracle.

    The fans will be up for this I hope. DC said he takes every game seriously and wants to win every game - cup and league. I think we will field a good side for the JPT game.

    Our home form is a worry. A Will Hoskins type of player would be great for us now. We scored 7 in 2 games. I bet we fail to score next week!

    Saturdays game against Wycombe cancelled due to us having three players on international duty, the three being Harrison, Gosling and Lockyer

    Having international players in your squad? We should sue as you have an unfair advantage <laugh>
    I was looking forward to this one, had a lift from Wells from a couple of Gas supporting mates.

    Very annoying I was going Saturday as I have the day off work <grr> they need to stop with all this no fixtures because of international football (which I have no interest in anyway) nonsense club Rugby still goes ahead when internationals are on time for the football world to grow a pair and get ****ing on with it <grr>. It also proves we have a very weak squad. This has ruined my weekend before its even started not sure I will be bothering with tomorrow nights game now.

    As soon as 3 players are called up, you have the right to call off the game. Gosling is on form, Lockyer playing well at the back and Harrison is a danger up front, especially from the bench. Would be a big mistake to carry on against a team, who is doing very well and we would do well to win the game, without these 3 players. We should always choose to have our strongest team available, especially against the better sides. Massive mistake to choose to go in to a big big game without our best players.
