Walker's Woes!

United manager Roy Walker doesn't have his woes to seek when it comes to naming his team for Saturdays match away to Institute, situated on the edge of Londonderry. United invariably find points hard to come by at the Drumahoe ground and we expect Saturday to be no exception. Hopefully the United manager will have learned from his mistake in United's last game and start with the versatile Cushley and keep the inconsistent Ormo on the bench. He also needs to find a way to motivate the remainder of his team as they looked like a team with no heart in their last game and at the end of the day all we as fans ask is that they at least keep on trying until the final whistle. The home team have signed the much travelled Stephen Parkhurst and he'll no doubt be out to make an impression at our expense. A big decision for the United manager will be who he selects in goal. As O'Neill is away on under-21 duty, it's a choice between Nelson and Kerr, for the last line of defence. No matter what team Roy finally selects, they will have a mammoth task on their hands, but we did kick-start our season with a hard fought point in the corresponding fixture last season. So come on Sky Blues, let's shag those Foylesiders! P.S. Alas and alack Sky Blue Sport won't have a presence at the game as Bruce Balmer is in Poland and Omar and me [Sammy P], are gonna be building up to the match by getting slowly tanked at a local hostelry!
