Re: Forest Green game
I agree with you Lord Stiffupperlip about Callum Johnson.
He had a dodgy time in his first couple of matches but then got 'Up to Speed' and he has been really good since. On Saturday he was up against Forest Green's best player in their No 17. Callum got properly 'skinned' once, early on in the match, but with the help of Clarke, Brown and Coneely, who tried to get in front of Callum and close the winger down, he then did pretty well. I was well pleased for the lad when he got on the score sheet which will give him even more confidence for the big matches to come.
Regarding the 'Subs' I think that they will be as 'Fit as Butcher's Dogs' and will be 100% ready to play their part if someone gets injured or reaches the points total for a suspension! (Hopefully not!)
A couple of weeks without a competitive match could be good for Kayden Jackson to get some intense treatment, and possibly one or two others who may well be carrying little niggles.
I too have been really impressed with Big Ben earlier in the season but I can see how difficult it would be for the Management to change the 'Winning Eleven'.
Let's trust in John and Jimmy.
