Am sure Man City are delighted to see Fiorini playing for our U21s lol!
More minutes for Taylor and Isted too
Good to see we are actually out first teamers to get minutes.. about time we did this!!
Yeah especially those coming back from injury - At least Taylor wont be quite so rusty from match sharpness if he gets thrown back in going forward for example.
Taylor bossing midfield. Fiorini making no impact so far. Which is a shame as we have Coventry and Dobbo in Taylor's position, but no proper 10 in Fiorini's
Loads have been tried out, I wonder what is on the horizon for Jason Adigun who has been consistently good whenever I’ve seen him play. At the very least on a par with Karoy Anderson.

I saw him for the U18s 3 years ago and he stood out , am surprised he's yet to make his first team debut when most of the side from that year have.
Also, neither Campbell nor Rylah are hood enough to be first team starters. As they are the only wingers on the books we are stuck with 352 or a diamond shape for the foreseeable (but we don't have a good enogh 10 for either).

There are no trains serving New Eltham due to strike by ASLEF members today.
More minutes for Taylor and Isted too
He's here to get '90 minutes-fit' and sharp.
And ultimately to prove his match fitness.
Only one way to do that - play games.
Any competitive games, as many as his broken body can cope with.
Assume that they have OKed it with Man City over Fiorini. Should be low pressure game for him to get 30 or 45 minutes.
Hope Campbell gets his mojo back too. That's a speedy front three for Fiorini to pick a pass or two too.
Isted in goal is also an interesting one. Again he needs minutes but where is Ward?
Looking forward to watching this one.
McGrandles not involved so starting on Saturday : - )
1 - 0 Taylor 2 mins
And TC misses a very good chance make it two
Swans had a couple of corners but nothing else.
Taylor and Fiorini looking very comfortable and controlling game
Which is a shame as we have Coventry and Dobbo in Taylor's position, but no proper 10 in Fiorini's
Still one nil.
Isted made one comfortable save.
We're pressing well and the better side.
Taylor winning the ball in midfield and passing well.
Game been a bit flat last 15 minutes
I saw him for the U18s 3 years ago and he stood out , am surprised he's yet to make his first team debut when most of the side from that year have.
Need to take our chances before Taylor and Fiorini go off.
Corner headed out, 2nd corner out for our throw
TC does really well to drive into the box but shoots just wide.
Taylor and Fiorini still on but Elerewe and Chin subbed of for Bakin and A N Other at HT
Still 1 - 0
