    Leyton O match day

    I am lying in my pit abiut 10 minutes walk from Brisbane Road. Down to brothers place in Clapham after the game until monday, with lunch tomorrow at the Pigs Head...... whose main menu item is a pigs..... I won;t be tempted. As for the match as ever I hope for the best an expect the worst,

    Looking at their message board the comments are equally divided betwen a win and a lose. Capacity of ground is 9,271 so it should be pretty close to that.

    Team. I would like Barclay at left back. Feeney Hunts and Mellish alongside Armer. Middle Guy, Moc and Mc. Up front Patrick and Edmondson

    No to Patrick, give Joe and Edmo a shot up top and watch the wrestling start.

    In the back 5 there should be Barclay, Lloyds, and HSBC.
    In midfield I would have Royal Bank Of Scotland, Standard Chartered and Schroders.
    Up front I would have some Spanish flair such as Banco Santander and CaixaBank

    Were the team in it?

    That seems like a very early arrival.

    They'll be knackered by kick off time.

    Overall I thought we played well, but without a cutting edge.

    Patrick seems to have lost something. Confidence? Hìs first touch is increasingly poor and he seems flat-footed at times. His main attribute was always pace, but we never seem to get him on the last man to exploit it. Is that his fault or the players trying to find him?

    Bearing in mind he hasn't really delivered since his return from injury I was surprised he was selected again today.

    Before he picked up the injury I thought Fin Back was a big improvement on what we had seen at right back in recent matches.

    Sad that it only lasted for 30 minutes or so. Hopefully Jack Ellis fit enough for next week.

    I thought the defence played well and we were a bit unlucky with the goal...but we all suspected it was coming.

    Thought McCalmont was excellent, but tired as the second half progressed.

    So the key decision has to be who to play up-front next week.

    I'd go for JK (or Edmondson) and Dennis, but Simmo knows best!
