not meaning to put a damper on the excitement there is on these boards this morning but i just read the courier and it says james haley has not trained due to illness.

now james haley is a crucial part of the short kick off ruitine we will use today he is the one who always jumpes and knockes it back to get us the ball back.

this is going to be a big part of whether we win the game today and we need james on the feild.

Shouldnt make much difference if we only have to kick off once!

shouldnt think that would be the case though. he is always the one that wins the ball from the short kick offs we need him on the pitch.

We don't want to be risking the short kick off tactic too much today!!

if we are kicking off in the first half today we should go for it cause its needed for a quick start and we can win the ball from them with james hayley playing.

He who dares win though Rodders!
