Funnily enough, the club shop has run out of letter A's at the moment. So Bogle is not only cheaper but actually doable


There are 7 players without A's in their surname listed out of 19 on the GTFC official team page. Can you name all 7. I couldn't. See Link to work out the answer.

All I know is that highly rated midfielder Aaaron A Aardvark was not signed for Town when we had the chance, it all makes sense now...

You missed one. Vennaey, Suntear and Cliftoan are not included because they are not on the OS but maybe they should be.

Quoted from diehardmariner
First half was the toughest we've faced so far this summer.  Peterborough controlled the game and at times we couldn't get near them.  Like BigChris I couldn't understand their mentality when it came to time-wasting and trying to con the referee, absolutely pathetic in pre-season.  Couple of very late tackles too, one especially that caught Pearson was just pure spite.

Second half we were a different team, roles reversed and it was Peterborough who couldn't keep up with us.  The movement in the final third has been an absolute joy to watch this pre-season and whilst I appreciate it's a different type of opposition in the Conference, no team will live with that if we can re-produce in the season itself.

For me Arnold has cemented his place as one of the strikers, we looked a hundred times better when he plays down the middle.  As good as Amond has looked, I fear he could be the one to miss out as he and Arnold may be too similar.  I don't think they've played together as a pairing yet either.  Personally I wouldn't mind seeing them together.

Monkhouse - yes he slows the game down but there will be plenty of occasions when we need that.  

For me the starting line-up should be:

McKeown
Toto
Tait
Gowling
Pearson
Mackreth
Marshall
Clay
Disley
Amond
Arnold


Bogle will be eased into the season rather than chucked straight in.  Seems he's struggling a bit in stepping up to full-time training, which is always a risk when signing players from part-time football.  


I agree Arnold has been playing exceptionally well but we also have to acknowledge how well Pittman has done, works well with Armond, scores goals and looks quick and fit. I think Arnold will start on the left with the licence to come inside. Also Marshall for me has had some good games in pre-season and seems determined to get into the team. When on form just edges it over Jack for the right side slot.
