Title: Torquay vs. Swindon *"Official"* Matchday Thread
Post by: walrus on Saturday, February 19, 2005, 14:48:22
Where is everyone?  Surely its too far for all of you to travel to Torquay.

Lineups are:

1 Phillip Barnes      :      Rhys Evans 1
 
4 Lee Canoville      :      Steve Jenkins 6
 
23 Paul Robinson      :      Sean O'Hanlon 2
 
5 Craig Taylor      :      Matthew Heywood 19
 
17 Brian McGlinchey      :      David Duke 11
 
7 Tony Bedeau      :      Sammy Igoe 7
 
6 Alex Russell      :      Matthew Hewlett 4
 
11 Kevin Hill      :      Grant Smith 3
 
10 Jo Kuffour      :      Lee Holmes 21
 
25 Adebayo Akinfenwa      :      Sam Parkin 9
 
19 Leon Constantine      :      Jamie Slabber 5
 
 
 
20 Martin Phillips      :      Steve Book 20
 
12 Paul Jarvie      :      Rory Fallon 8
 
2 Matthew Villis      :      Jerel Ifil 12
 
14 Matthew Hockley      :      Brian Howard 17
 
3 Craig Woodman      :      Stefani Miglioranzi 10


King's sticking with the team who triumphed at home over Barnsley, poor Howard still on the bench and still no place for a returning Stefani Miglioranzi.  Personally would have been tempted to give Ifil and Howard starts, but lets see what King's team does.  A win today would be fantastic, despite Torquay being in 20th, and would see us jump Brentford with them playing in the FA cup today at Southampton and into the covetted sixth place, which would be an enormous psychological boost if nothing else.

A draw today would be far from disasterous, with Town having a piss-poor record against the lower sides of this division.  However, the home game was an embarrassing draw, with a diabolical second half performance.  A defeat today and the playoffs once again start to slip out of reach.

I think that's a good team. I agree it's a tricky game today, a draw wouldn't be too bad.

i know we would probably take a draw but a win is a must today.
to really give us a playoff chance we need to win.

Four wins on the bounce seems unlikely, even if we were up against Supermarine today.  Just don't get the feeling, I really hope I'm wrong.  Win would be fantastic, and announce a Swindon surge!  It would certainly worry Martin Allen.

It is a very strong bench, so if we are having problems we can turn things around, providing King has the balls to make substitutions.

Mmmmm Strawberry Milkshake flavoured Milky Bar egg....

Looks like Swindon are playing well, though Akinfenwa scares me.  Who is commentating alongside Hadwin - sounds like a decent talker....

Holmes shot blocked - would have scored otherwise!  Come on Town!  Corner!

61% of possession so far, sounds like we're on top.  We need this early goal, while we're on top.

It is Mark Hanrahan - what a legend, we need him on this board!

:soapy tit wank:   Akinfenwa misses from centre of six yard box.  Misjudgement from Jenks.  Supposed corner but seemingly no touch.

Headed in from corner, by Constantine.  FUCK.  Jenks at fault for not marking his man on the far post.

'Bout time   :twisted:

Taylor, their captain, off for Matt Villis due to a groin strain.  Good news surely?

Jenks is having a very poor game - at fault for the corner and the goal, and just got booked for descent.

Bloody hell they hit the bar again.  I'm tearing my fingernails out here.  There's only one Brian Howard....

Sounds like the game is getting stretched, Brian Howard would thrive in a situation like this.

King use the fucking bench.  This game is for the taking.

2-2 I'll take that. I'm sure we would have won if OST hadn't jinxed us by guaranteeing the win, :twisted: but away to a team battling for survival that's a decent result. Only one point off the playoffs. 8)

I'm happy with 2-2, keeps us close to the playoffs. Think we are 8th, only 1 point from playoffs.

Another two for Parkin, it will take a miracle to keep him this summer.
