Toyboy says that Dean Evans has moved on, can't find anything on the Clubs twitter, facebook or the main club site. Is this news correct?

Thought griffin was superb, always gave 110% in a bluebirds shirt so no surprise. Funny how people view games differently as I thought Mcdonald looked well off the pace, definitely needs games to get back up to full speed. Cirencester played very well no denying that, but played into there hands with sloppy passes all over. Haines was mom on chippenhams side all day long, was everywhere.

You get what you get with Griff don't ya. Big battering ram of a player, won't lose much in the air and will always give you his best. Personally I am inclined to agree with you regarding Haines but for me Jarv has his fingerprints on 3 of the 4 goals, 120 minutes in the tank and absolutely ran himself into the ground. Big games call for big performances and both Luke and Nat really gave them last night.

McDonald will get there, he's a big physical boy and needs game time underneath him, he has just had a stint at LB as well lasting all of 90 minutes so there are the demands on his body that come from the position change to contend with as well and last night another big performance from him. 

Ciren did OK for what they needed to do and that was stay in the game and cause us trouble where they could. I am telling you now, from an analytical standpoint, take their keeper out of the equation and I can't imagine we would be having the conversations we are. It's easy to stick it on a big performance, but that boy just had the best two games of his career against us and it will be very interesting to see if that's the norm for him because if it is.. Well who would be upset seeing him in the future lining up in a Chippenham shirt, only 19 and Gloucester love selling us a player ;) 

The yellow cards are sadly a part of a passionate players game, you take the rough with the smooth I guess. I don't know I don't seem to share this opinion with Guthrie, time and time again down the years he has been a real match winner for us at times, a real club stalwart and has survived 4 or 5 managers, two changes of board. The boy has to have something about him and personally I think he did alright last night. The only way to get match fit is play more matches I guess however, you cannot ignore that Tariq is banging on the door at the moment and Karnell being in the form his he Guthrie and Tariq are competing for a spot on the wing for me. As for Youssef, I know nothing of injury or affliction however, he is trying to be a centre midfielder in a team where Haines and Gunner are currently playing VERY well together, I imagine the reason he is warming the bench is the same reason a few players are. We just have a good squad and for me right now. Gunner doesn't lose his place. Same up top. Our two strikers HAVE to be Zebroski and Jarvis, Pratt and Hopper are great options and very capable when players need a rest. For example Brockie may well be knackered after all the football he has played lately, maybe against Dulwich he sits down and rests, maybe he came off last night so he plays on Saturday. But either way Hopper or Pratt we know can do a job there. It's squad rotation at it's finest and I for one am glad we have it.  

 

Well well, two weeks away in the sunshine and some rain! Thomas Cook did add two days to my break but less of that. Three points against Tonbridge, played the youth team at Chelmsford and got a point away from HP, then banked the cash. Looking forward to Saturday, in shorts hopefully. Thank you Voice excellent reports and well written.
