Pre-Match Thread Southend United v Maidenhead, Tuesday 19th September, 19:45ko, NL

[Harry Bullocks]

Fylde away support will be equally crap as it stands

 

[in the know]

Lomas won't be available.
Might see David Martin temporarily registered if Collin is no better, though he hasn't played a full match for around 3 years , so rusty could be an understatement!
Ralph is 50\50 for tuesday at best.

It was stated Lomas was injured at the start of the season. Is that still the case? Any ideas why a replacement wasn't brought in given the length of time he's been out?

 

[in the know]

Originally wanted to leave then when preseason finally occurred he apparently got an injury he can't shake off. Apparently it's the groin injury holding him back now. It flared on a recent run.

 

[Streaky]

Maidenhead 4/1 for the win.. seems generous considering we might start the game with a squad of 12…

 

[amsemp]

God knows what we’ll see. How bloody depressing. Maybe…

Collin
Demetriou, Kensdale, Miley
Mooney, Husin, Fonguck, Bridge
Wood
Powell, Cardwell​

 

[Tommy2holes]

Surely you have to have a certain amount of players in order to start a match.

Starting a match without a substitute is beyond ridiculous.

 

[Billy Bests boot laces]

The Maidenhead management won't have to do much homework about our formation & game plan, due to our current situation.
We can only cheer our side on as much as possible, & hope for the best. At least irrelevant of the game & result, there will be no boo's.

They won’t have any idea of what it will be. What’s cardwell like in defence, Mooney as a lone striker and wood in goal?!?

 

[nick12]

If we can put a team of 11 players on the pitch Tuesday evening everything else is irrelevant. They will all get my full support and 10 out of 10 even if we get beaten 4-0

The team, game and result really is insignificant given what will most likely happen on 4th October

Are you happy now Ron? You have all your money nice and safe in your hundreds of flats while SUFC goes down the pan. You say you care for the club you are a greedy, arrogant, pompous liar who cares about nothing but yourself

 

[Farmer Fossett]

Out of interest could any of the management team register as players? KM and MB are 46 and 45 so whilst not ideal (and depending on fitness) could they be used as emergency subs?

Or more realistically can any of our youth team players be used??

As I understand it there is a limit on the number of registrations, so no.

 

[Holy Joe]

The rules suggest replacements for long term (think 2 weeks is mentioned) injured are possible if fit players less than 16. Replacements for suspensions possible if number of fit players less than 11.

 

[WestStandBlue]

We are in court tomorrow also…. Maybe that will change the team we put out.

No, we can’t register anyone else. Otherwise we would have had youth players on the bench before.

Betting suspended on a few sites.
Odds started dropping as people putting money on Maidenhead.
Cash out already in profit.
Same as with the Oldham game..... although Maidenhead might actually win this one!

.....................COLIN.........................
DEMETRIOU....KENSDALE....MILEY
MOONEY...HUSIN...FONGUCK..BRIDGE
.....................WOOD.............................
...........CARDWELL....POWELL...........

NO SUBS. ( makes more of a headline statement than risking injured players to miss rest of season)

yup - but if Ralph is fit swap him for Miley, Miley for Wes , Wes on the bench

 

[Rayleigh boy]

i am of the opinion that due to the actions of RM the club can no longer compete as a professional football club and should supporters

protests include disrupting the game

they will have my full support ..

(unfortunately due to family commitments I cannot attend)

 

[Target man]

Back to 14 players tomorrow with the red card appeals. Might cost us in a week or two but then hopefully have Ralph back.
