Buzzing for Sunday - just another 51 hours until kick off - I can't wait... Picked up my tickets from the ground yesterday and watched a bit of the training session. Shame about Terrell and Easty's injuries, but we have loads of talent in the squad to step in, and get us to Wembley. Come on Sutton!!! Has Eastmond got an injury? I'm sure Dos mentioned in his interview on Saturday that Eastmond picked up an injury which is why he didn't play against Aldershot |

Both Eastmond and Thomas T failed fitness tests before the Aldershot game. But Dos gave the impression that neither had any sort of serious problem. With the benefit of a week's recuperation since last weekend, I'd expect one or both to be fit for Sunday.

I seemed to forget that I think with people giving their starting XI - my mistake!

Boreham wood's website seems to believe that 750 -1000 supporters will make their way to Sutton for pay on the gate. I will be very surprised if that many come and if they do you have to ask why they don't go to their club the rest of the season.

Because it is a semi final with a chance to get to Wembley. Big game syndrome.

I watched the game last night and a number of things stood out and have done in previous games.
You need to find a way of taming Andrade.
Stop BW's ability for a fast start which often leads to them scoring.
Somehow block the annoying, but highly effective, four player train at set pieces.
And last but not least score more than them. SIMPLES.

Terrell may play; I was told at the ground today that he was "touch and go". We'll see...

Why do people feel the need to share information on a public forum that was given to them in good faith? Keep things to yourself

I would be thinking the same but then again we could be asking the same for some of our supporters as in where were they a few seasons ago but that’s football, the locals like to get involved when there is more involvement and success instead but it has benefited us as our newer supporters have become loyal and are going to Away games and staying at the club and continuing their support for the team! |

Indeed. Given he was injured last week not exactly divulging top secrets!
Re. BW numbers I’d be surprised if they break 500. That would be a serious turn out for them considering general numbers. The more the merrier of course!
Any idea how sales of our tickets are going?

Stop BW's ability for a fast start which often leads to them scoring. Somehow block the annoying, but highly effective, four player train at set pieces. And last but not least score more than them. SIMPLES. Kbb Andrade is at his best when he receives the ball in space. This is either: 1/ when fairly central as an opposition corner or set piece is cleared and most of their defenders went up with the attack. Sutton have been guilty of this, but recently seem to limit the number going up for corners; or 2/ when he moves wide on the opposite side of the field to the ball and is found with a cross field pass. Last year Bailey to Deacon was a similar U's ploy. The full back on that side has to stay close to Andrade. The 4 man train is a response to teams who defend by 'taking their partners for a wrestle' at corners. The train makes it difficult to cuddle the attackers. But they split and run in 4 different directions. I haven't watched enough videos but I doubt the runs are random, there may be a set pattern signalled to the corner taker by the order of the players in line. The worst thing the defence can do is try to stand next to the train. Better to ignore it, stay a few yards goal side and run out to meet the corner. |

Also the trains arent running through Sutton so there will be less of an attendance
