No Briscoe in match day squad. Bournemouth boys straight in . Squad looks very new with only 2 starters from last season..

Oh dear - finally managed to get Radio Devon on tune .. only to hear the Undertaker Fleet is still droning out once again.

Radio off - roll on Final Score!

Fenwick out wide? Lot of striking options on the bench!

I hear a lad called Benyon has scored 2 minutes in for Hayes and Yeading, maybe we should have a look at him, ....I'll get me coat

Was about to post the same thing from BBC! Got to love BBC coverage of lower league football

I actually just missed being able to show us with only 8 players and 3 subs.

If this were at 2:40, fair enough. Considering it was some 15-20mins after the kick off, there really is no excuse.

So why did BT list 9 players in the Gulls team, and 10 in the Macclesfield team? And were The BBC worse?

cambgull · Post by **cambgull** » 08 Aug 2015, 15:42

Sorry, just realised I put BT rather than BBC. This was the BBC website.

Added in 1 minute 51 seconds:
Sounds like there is absolutely nothing going on in this game. Even the commentators have nothing to talk about.

This is not easy watching. Boys working hard when they give it away, but we're playing a 4-2-3-1 and getting a bit isolated up top. Macclesfield playing better football but very few chances on either side. Spiess looking assured, crowd could be a lot worse.

Do we know what the attendance is?

madgull · Post by **madgull** » 08 Aug 2015, 16:16

Not yet.

Not sounded brilliant but its boiling hot and we are a team of strangers.
