Today we are ranked 12th. We have a tough match as we travel to face #1 Barrow. Barrow has recently added super speedster striker, Emmanuel Omoyinmi on loan from Gravesend. His speed is definitely frightening. Mark Salmon is a 30 year old veteran DC with amazing physical skills who has been averaging a very impressive 8.02 for form on the year. Gavin Knight has excellent physical skills as a striker, and has an amazing 23 goals in 29 games. Jamie Paterson is a dangerous midfielder who has 10 goals and 10 assists on the year. Simon Bishop is a top notch keeper who has 15 clean sheets in 40 games. He has been conceding under a goal a game on the season. Surprisingly, they are only 6-4 favorites. When we played them at home earlier in the year, we tied them 1-1. I'd be very happy with a tie this game.

I consider a 4-5-1 for this game, but I decide I'm going to play a VERY defensive 4-4-2. I'm going to be relying on the long ball and counter attack more for offense than usual this game.

My starting lineup:

GK: Scarsella
DL: Dunning
DC: Shepherd (should feel rested now.)
DC: Curtis (has played well in recent games.)
DR: Black
ML: Wright
MC: Kelly
MC: Atkins
MR: Fox
SC: Turley
SC: Farrell

S1: Pettinger
S2: Surey (giving him some rest.)
S3: Hunter
S4: Morris
S5: Wood

It's a cool 45 degrees outside today.
