Teams like Dagenham & Redbridge, Stevenage, Barnet and Aldershot would love it, just love it, if they got a pop at us, and a draw against Di Canio's Swindon would put the cat amongst the pigeons. Meanwhile a draw against AFC Wimbledon or Crawley really would invite David v Goliath headlines! The game will certainly be an early test to establish whether or not our soft underbelly has survived Sam Pot's drills.
As a Yeovil fan, I would hate to see us drawn against the Glovers. There would be no doubt where my allegiance would lie but I'd prefer Yeovil had a run in the Cup rather than being dumped out in the first round. A tie against Hereford would, meanwhile, invite a trip down memory lane. Anybody remember Dudley Tyler?
karma just screams Swindon Town
ReplyDeleteI have actually watched the Japanese cartoon you have used in that image. It is about a Japanese bloke who come to England as a manager and took over a team called EAST HAM UNITED!
ReplyDeleteHe takes the club on to win a cup and then he goes back to Japan to go and revive his old team by being their manager. It is actually really good.
Anyway sorry for being off topic! You are a Yeovil fan? I'm sure that is news to many of us!
Aldershot it is then, and at UP too. As you predicted, it Should be interesting.
ReplyDeleteAm i right in thinking that the Championship fixture list comes out tomorrow too?
Lets hope for an easy start to this season. If we come up against what might the Championship has in the first 5 games it could be disasterous for the rest of the season, same as last year.
We need to build our confidence quickly this year
Aldershot town, should be interesting
ReplyDeleteIt's something I've talked about before Rex. I was raised in Yeovil from the age of 5 - parents moved for the East End for my education.
ReplyDeleteActually, being born in East Ham, I should support the lesser Ham. The Ye Old Oak Ham!
