Long Walk!

If tomorrows game proves to be the last game Institute will play in the Premier league, we will not miss the long walk that opposing fans are forced to take to get into the ground. Its a tidy ground, but as usual spectators are given little or no thought, when it comes to their comfort, like all clubs in this league, fans are treated like second class citizens. That said, we at 'Sport will be sad to see Stute relegated,  not because we have beaten them 3 times already this season, its because they play the game the correct way.

The all-blacks are out to maintain their unbeaten run, coming as it was too late to have any bearing on the coveted top six position. But with three wins out of three games played, confidence is bound to be high, but apart from the match at Ferney, we have struggled to dominate the opposition and got through by good luck more than skill. We at 'Sport haven't a notion about whether Cush is fit again or Paddy Mac and whether they will be risked at the Riverside ground.

Our gut feeling is that Fergie will try to pick the nucleus of the side that triumphed in the last three games and we won't be surprised if Captain Jenks  is left in Scotland. But Spike could be thinking along completely different lines and want to run the rule over some youngsters and want the Captain there if things start to go wrong, only time will tell. We would urge all United fans to make the trip, if its humanly possible and cheer the all-blacks to victory and show compassion to the Stute.

But the opposite can take place, that's the beauty of our game, if we go down there thinking its easy, we will become unstuck. So we need everybody singing from the same hymn sheet, no complacency and definitely no show-boating. If we stick to the same principles, that started this unbeaten run, we will have no doubt that we will get a victory and continue our managers quest for 50 points and a finish above our dear friends down the A26, so come on United, lets be astute!
