The Great Eckscape

As someone else said, if the players have taken part in this kind of thing while with you then you are the victims of this and certainly shouldn't warrant any negative publicity.

Have you seen this about Wooley & Noel being charged as part of a match fixing scandal in Australia? http://wwos.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=8723589

U16's reduced to £1.00 at our place starting on Saturday - http://canveyislandfc.com/news/2013/08/u16s-admission-reduced-one-pound-starting-saturday

Good luck all!

Thanks for that Matt, was wondering where he was.

Nice one. Should be easy to organise as we seem to both be at home on the same days this season.

A sensible move for Deano, although I'm not sure about him as a defender!

Artemi was number 4 the other night.

We'll give you a game

Humphrey signs, well happy! http://canveyislandfc.com/news/2013/08/humphrey-joins-201314

Nick Humphrey has played the last two matches and has looked really good - would love to see him sign. If he does I can see us lining up: -------------------- Brightley --------------------- Sellears - Bartley - Bryan-Edwards - Humphrey Curran---------Smith----------Game----------Dumas -------------Thomas---------------Bellotti--------------- SUBS: Sands, James Hawes, Nash, Woods-Garness, Glanville. If Humphrey doesn't sign then Dumas would drop back to left back and either BWG or Jay Nash playing wide left, with Harrison Chatting getting himself back to fitness. I think BWG will have a job on his hands to get back into the starting XI with Bellotti and Thomas looking a good partnership. Not sure if Tommy Glanville will be playing for Basildon regularly this season, if so then a second keeper is a must and the lad from Charlton looked good. Would then be up to him and Dale (who had a very good game last night) to battle it out for the number 1 shirt. The player I've been most impressed with is Sheldon Sellears. He seems equally as comfortable in defence or attack, and I can see him being an important player for us this season. We have a genuine squad this season which will mean a couple of players having to be left out the 16 each week which is where we need to be if we are to challenge.

Surprised with Jones to Lowestoft, maybe they've seen something I haven't! Good shot stopper on his day but made too many mistakes for me. Bellotti has looked good so far, needs to take a few more chances but the work rate and ability is there for all to see. Quite liked Kavanagh, thought he gave us a bit of height in central midfield as well. Would liked to have seen him as part of the squad this season to be honest.

Apparently Robbie was invited back but was considering his options. Hasn't trained with us so assume he's gone. I see that Akurang has signed for Bishop's Stortford - http://www.bsfc.co.uk/.

I *believe* that Glanville and Cocklin are both eligible for the Academy next season, but would need to double check that.

From last night I think Akurang, Sands, Curran, Chatting, Hawes and Dumas can all be added to that list. Akurang played the tail end of last season as a centre back so assume the same will apply along with a coaching role.
