I don't think that you sound convinced on that, Aussie! I don't believe every rumour I hear but I will be very surprised if Thomson is involved tomorrow - or ever again for us for that matter. I think it's just one of those things that have fizzled-out rather that ending-up in a "big bang" like Christian Hansen or Martin McNeil. I`m not convinced of it O.T.B it just would make sense if you look at the line up and take the opposition into account, especially at their place. It to me looks like that Bucks was trying some older wiser heads out for that one, hence the youngsters didn`t feature as heavily, Smith was ill and there could have been perfectly valid reasons why some other youngsters didn`t start but with out that knowledge and to take a glance at the team sheet before the game it to me is easy to understand why someone would think that bucks strategy was one of using older heads!

Bevan, Robertson, Ellis, Branston, Camara, Macklin, Mansell, Wroe, Thompson, Zebroski, Barnes, Benyon, Nicholson, Carayol, Stevens, O`Kane, Rowe-Turner, Smith, Searle (gk), Thomson. Last name on the team sheet usually means something,especially if your named after the reserve keeper, no Poke I wonder how long he`s going to be out for!

This is how the club have put the squad up on the O/S. Bevan; Nicholson, Ellis, Robertson, Mansell, Benyon, Wroe, Thompson, Carayol, Stevens, Smith, Zebroski, Thomson, Branston, O'Kane, Rowe-Turner, Barnes, Camara, Macklin, Searle. So all my waffling on about Thomson being picked last seems to be irrelavent as that`s not how the club see it just the H/E`s version, teach me for reading far too much into something yet again!

Don't want to worry anyone, but I am 16 miles east of Cheltenham, and it has just started snowing (again). Had loads yesterday morning, but had all gone by this morning.
Big flakes and getting harder.

According to Cheltenham`s web site they haven`t turned us over for a decade, that worries the life out of me, a banana skin if there ever was one! This weather is awefull, if the game does go ahead it will be a bit like that pishweak excuse of a pitch we experienced on Friday, the temperature is apparently above freezing at their place so what snow falls is gunna turn to mush and if they get some rain like we have had then breakout the floaties and rubber rings! But not like Hereford did!

without getting too technical (I have still got my slide rule) how did you manage to post something here if you are at the game?
