Sounds great Gaffer. Are you flying us out to Dubai for a pre-season get together or a more 'local' team building thing? Screw that, let's find a dirty great mountain in Austria. Well I wasn't thinking about running around during pre-pre-season, or going out in the midday sun. More team bonding. Morale and all that. Pottery classes or summat. A throw down-off kind of thing.

Building expectation for the first 'friendly', about ten days away. {Hoping the commercial team are going to provide a schedule.} Working towards the 22 man squid, still could be a few vacancies to fill/volunteers/recruitment, drop outs. I've press ganged a few, feel free to decline. Cheees Felonious Harryburrows Bathstoke TheVoid Rogerjones Manmarking MickMills TheDrunkenCommunist Maninasuitcase Bishp Samba Rat Flashman Chuffedstokie Crapslinger Pearo BojanMackey Essexstoke Northy DJDJ OldStoke Got dice and cards, just need to go up the loft for the Logacta. Looking good for the campaign.

On the basis my new hip hasn't fully settled in yet and I've got a limp, mascot duty might work. Dressing up within reason.

I like the way you mention the players all around you, Rog but fail to mention the bloke stood next to you... This central midfield is going to be our downfall

Yes, the decision to go clubbing for some preseason bonding was ill advised. Bit of a spat amongst the lads. Just hoping the papers don;t get hold of it, and we can move on. Don't mind a bit of edge in the camp..

In that formation i'll be able to melvin Mumf when he's nattering to Chuffed ..... not sure I fancy the overlap with Crappy though ..... And where's Deano fitting in? He needs to start else he'll kick right off .

He needs to start else he'll kick right off . Time yet, window is still open. Defenestration and that. Still a few notable absences who havn't stepped forward. Hoping the recruitment ''team' will address it before the season starts. Deano, Tricky {he knows the back three}, Mendicant, Mary...... Strong contenders not offered their favoured position. *note Chuffed's had a sideward move to Mascot with a stick. 'Ockey the Owl or summat

I like the idea of it. Thinking of putting the positions of Captain and Vice Captain out to democratic squad vote but not secret ballot. Yeah I will. Captain from the first eleven, vice from the back up. my nominations are: Rogerjones for Captain. He's fully embraced this conceit and keeps calling me gaffer, ideal. Vice is obviously Bojan Mackey.

He needs to start else he'll kick right off . I'm honoured to be discussed for a starting XI position. I've always thought of myself as a sitting DM, with a tremendous reading of the game. These days, I think of myself more as one of the commentariat though. Maybe I can be the match day reporter.

I'll vote for Mick, purely so I can watch him debate with the referee when he gives a decision against us.
Off the other shit team I vote for Samba 'cos he's a daft bastard (In a good way!)

Hard though it is to believe, i have had a rather chequered past card wise when it comes to my communication with refs. Apparently i get a bit wound up.....don't see it myself

Old Stoke for me, you need an experienced head, plus Essex and Craps wouldn't be able to choose between heads or tails at the toss without falling out with each other

Without blowing my own trumpet I played in a coaches (me) v under 17's game yesterday at my lads football fun day and despite them all being younger/faster/stronger (what the fuck do 16 year olds eat these days?) we kept a clean sheet with me playing as a left sided centre back. As I walked triumphantly off the pitch I swear I heard a couple of spectators arguing whether my performance was more Baresi-esque or Maldini-esque. I thought it was the latter if I'm honest.
Happy to fight for a place on the bench but just be warned if BMI doesn't sign I can't guarantee that SCFC themselves won't be calling on my services to put pressure on Muniesa and Wollscheid......
