Balchi Paulistano 4-2-3-1, defensive solidity, structured buildup, and high-intensity midfield. Double pivot, possession based low risk pragmatic approach.
Paulistano Balchi We dominated the ball against Farnham first half. If we could do the same against a possession based Newport, would be some statement
GoldenGamble Pre season’s been alright I spose, nothing to get excited about. 2-2 down Merthyr, 3-2 off Wycombe, then Tuesday up Farnham where we had the ball for about four hours and done absolutely nothing with it. McGavin free kick got us out of jail again. Genuinely think if he retired we’d not score till Christmas. All I want is summat like a proper side out for an hour. Davies at right back, Zain and McGavin in the middle, Jonesy and Macca either side, Walker up top. Obeng or Daly for the last spot and I couldn’t tell ee, Obeng’s been our best by a country mile but Daly gives you a bit more to bang against em. Don’t much care about the result. No injuries, a bit of bite up top, and someone please tell the tannoy bloke it’s a friendly not the cup final.
GoldenGamble New man in for them an all, Mullins got the job this morning. First day in the job and they’ve sent him to Huish Park. Welcome to the big time bud. Todd’s stopping on by all accounts, so he can point out which bits of the pitch to avoid
GoldenGamble Paulistano been running things while they had no one, and he’s staying on under Mullins. It’s Mark Smith who’s gone. Knows Huish Park inside out an all, so Mullins’ll have a decent steer on us
Paulistano GoldenGamble I wonder if there’s any similarities in how they’re thinking about setting up against us and Roma on Tuesday 🤣🤣🤣
GoldenGamble Paulistano 🤣🤣 Yeah, us Saturday then Roma at rodders Parade Tuesday. So flip it, same team sheet Tuesday mind, he’ll just Tippex out Yeovil and write Roma over the top 🤣👌
admin GoldenGamble Not a bad start to full time football for Gwengwe - interested to see how he gets on against us.
GoldenGamble admin 40 odd goals for Poole then straight into the EFL, course he’ll score against us Saturday, they always do. Bloke’s gone from a Tuesday night at Poole to marking Roma’s back four inside six weeks. Fair play to en
