Easter Bunnies!

The Sky Blues face the Point tomorrow night, 19-45 hrs, at the Showgrounds, hoping to consolidate their position in their quest for a 7th place finish. They'll be no Easter Bunnies on show for Town have shown  they mean business, with their all-round football skills and United had best be up for this encounter, or they may end up with (cream) eggs on their faces. We must assume that everybody is fit, as our manager was as usual tight-lipped in an interview earlier today.

When asked about why he released Cutch and Brian Mack, he gave the official line that Cutch had other commitments, what with a new job and Brian wanted to go to the USA, where he hoped to get a job. We wonder if we'll ever hear the proper way of it, or just have to adopt the official line, anyway they are both gone and we don't think either of them will be missed.

Our manager delved into the transfer window with four signings in January and only one of them is currently holding down a first team place, Tall Tim. Maca can't get off the bench, Cutch has been released and Paddy Mac is on the injury list or he is dropped. So you see our acquisitions are not working out too well. We signed four players and only one of them is holding down a first team place, not a very good average, sign four to get one.

Big Tim was bang in form against the Coleraine scum on Saturday and he will be need to be in form tomorrow night, as the Point have a few nippy players and he will be tested, have no doubt. Will Fergie start the same eleven for the third game in a row? Its anybody's guess, just when you think you have him figured out, he surprises you. But we don't envisage any surprises tomorrow night, it will be all systems go for a win, so come Sky Blues, lets shag those Easter Bunnies!
