And let's not forget all this is happening remarkably without big George.

Was talking earlier to bloke whose son plays alongside Wilkinson for Bolton, said doesn't really rate him and said he's not a patch on Tom Eaves. Hoping he's wrong!!

Win the next 5 games and it's a genius decision, lose them and it's idiotic.

Reality is that it makes no difference and if he hadn't mentioned it then nobody would be any the wiser.

Pre Season.....We've played Australasia, Europe, Premiership, Championship, League 2, Conference North and the Evo-stick league.

Some good results, some decent goals and some encouraging team and individual performances......but we failed to keep a clean sheet.

Typical Latics?

Not potent enough up front.

Mellor and Winchester looked lively, as did Mills and Wilson.

Philiskirk was off the pace (to be expected) but Gros was very unconvincing.

Cracking second goal by JCH, not sure Lockwood knew much about the corner. Coleman is obviously still learning and won't be able to provide adequate cover should Rachubka be out for a prolonged period.

All that said, we were missing Brown, Forte, Dayton, Dieng, Mike Jones (for 60-odd minutes) and Kusunga. Not even mentioning Morgan-Smith and Turner.

If we sign Forte I think we have enough options, a good number of my starting 11 on 9th August were on the bench or not playing at all.

I think this formation has legs but I'm not convinced Gros is any part of it.

Given there's a deal on the table, he played the full game and we conceded twice, how did Llera do?

Llera starts, so he hasn't ripped up his contract offer just yet.

Regarding Llera, maybe we will have a better idea if he's involved at Morecambe tomorrow night.

Full Time 8-1

8-1 Booo

8-0 Turner

7-0 Turner

Attendance 1018

6-0 Winchester

5-0 Winchester

4-0 Kusunga

Trialist who scored looks more like an African than a Bulgarian.

JCH - ice pack on shin and calf - he doesn't seem too concerned.

3-0 trialist scores.

JCH off with knock, Bove on.

Looked like a dislocated ankle popped back in by John Guy and the paramedics.

Come on Inspirals, pull your fingers out. It's the future of football finance.

Is he now regarded as our number 2 to Chubs in our current 14/15 squad or are we on the lookout for AN Other as backup?

Expecting more annoying Tuesday night games..

First post updated with the retained list news.

Mods, please will you pin this post?

My six year old son discovered a colourful egg shaped sticker with a number 5 on it stuck to the middle of his season ticket seat in the Chaddy.

We were abroad Easter week so we missed the Coventry game....

Have we missed something? Has he won a prize?

I just feel that he leant towards them for the whole 90 minutes which ultimately nearly ended our unbeaten run.

I will be renewing for about the 40th time in the Chaddy along with my seven year old son who has to give me a tenner for his for the 3rd consecutive season ticket!

However, he will be charged full child price for one off cup games like £5 or £10 per game if like this season, I just can't work that one out!
