On their form, im not scared of them, bergers showed its easy to cull them with a stacked midfield and hit on the counter and you wouldnt call them solid at the back thats for sure...
the real test will be our recovery/ turnover for this game given we have so many players that cant maintain 90 mins and lack depth to go from 120 mins to another tense game needing to hold ... no reason, if we are careful enough at back, not to be banking on atleast 1 point here imo.. a win would be the ideal, but that would require us to be clockwork for full 90 mins a ross the park and take the slightest chance, big ask at the moment.

It will play out depending on who comes out of the blocks better first... If our first half resembles the Dinamo game the other day AND we jag an earlyish goal, the game will be much more in our favour the longer it goes.... Im alot more hopeful now than I was 4 weeks ago...

Any news on potential players popping up for this? Surprise marquee striker perhaps?
 
Crickets..... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Worse still .....


perhaps we are currently thawing out some Scandinavian part time whale hunter, that will be here now that the weather is better suited!
 
The first available match any new signings we make would be the Round 20 match against Hume City. That leaves just 7 matches and maybe a cup semifinal if not cup tied.
 
Am still stunned that someone in the club thought having that Danish striker that probably played the equivalent of State League 3 in Denmark would be a good option forward.

Shoutout to Andre Skapoulas. Ive been a big critic of our lack of depth this season and not too sure why he hasn’t seen many minutes this season but he turned the game when he came on in the second half with the pace and directness. Great assist for the equaliser

He has been injured as far as i know.

Hopefully we start hearing some names soon in regards to transfers.

Yeah great call... His peach of a ball to Andy put it on a plate and troubled the full back everytime he went down the wing.... Great debut....

Unfortunately not, even though I’d like us to be favourites.

Preston would not want to lose 2 weeks in a row against Bergers and South. We come out hard and try and score an early goal. Then Preston will open up.

My main concern is fitness. It’s the last 20 minutes of the match that concern me.
