Quiet Lambs!

What a strange atmosphere awaits our team at the 'strangely' named Stangmore Park, Dungannon, tomorrow night, weather permitting. United fans have intimated their intention to boycott this game in protest at the false accusations levelled at us regarding racial chanting. We at 'Sport (us three), have decided to support this call for non-support, although it will be a difficult pill to swallow, but swallow it we must. We will however not be attending the reserve game at the Showgrounds, as it is not a 'home game' for us (based 30 miles from Ballymena as we are), but we are hoping to attend the 'legends' night on Wednesday. What a treat it promises to be for Omar, who says Norman Clarke knows him personally (in his dreams) and Eddie Russell is his all time favourite player.

As for the team for tomorrow night's game, we just don't have a clue, but imagine Saturday's selection will get the 'nod' again as a win is vital for us in our attempt to move up the league standings. Chris Ramsay is serving the second game of his 2 game ban, but as far as we know everyone else is available. Dungannon will have to manage without star striker Timmy Adamson and former United defender Craig McClean, who are both suspended. Adamson is usually a thorn in the flesh in these games, but United will have to avoid complacency due to his absence as they strive for the three points. Even though we won't be there in body we will be there in spirit, so come on Sky Blues, let's shag those Tyronians!
