Our boys were fantastic, weve got together a great squad of players at the moment & if we can keep hold of them i wouldnt put it past us to make the Quater Finals although it all depends on the draw today... got to avoid 1 of the big sides.. Lowerstoft, Quorn, Leamington!

Hope so. Cogenhoe deserve to go far in the Vase. I was impressed with them when they played Newport!

Good luck to both UCL teams left in the Vase!

Best of luck to the Cooks on Saturday!!! possibly the biggest day in the clubs history (no pressure!)

Although we will be missing the suspended Carl Holmes & possibly the boy Diggin (providing his trial at Bournemouth tonight goes well!!)

Sadly i will be missing the game, due to an ill timed holiday!

Come on you Cooks

[blissycook]

ill timed holiday.. ice hockey matches.. my cats got the flu... my in growing toe nail is hurting when I put socks on... oh come on now.. this is next to winning league cup first time, winning the league for our one and only time indeed a big day for the Cooks.. with players missing it aint gonna be easy.... but the dream lives on..... come on the COOKSSSSS...

[blissycook]

woops forgot to say thank you Grass roots for your good wishes and compliments... our lads are always looking to play football... rather than hoof and charge... hopefully that will win us through to a quarter final spot.... cor.. so exciting.....

All the best to Kim and Cogenhoe in their quest to reach the FA Vase 5th round at Causeway United, also to Potton in their home tie with AFC Totton (Who lost last week, for the first time this season)

[blissycook]

Many thanks Ian..... my nerves have already started.... and yes quite right to.. best of luck to Potton .... they have really tough opposition in Totton.... the battle of the TTONS! But its the cup and anything could happen.... ooh ahhh role on Saturday.... woops we also have a match tonight... lucky our managers have their feet on the ground!!.. What was it the great late Shankly used to say.. the most important match? the next one.

[UCL Watcher]

Yep, can only echo everyones good wishes for Saturday.

Are you two new signings Wattsy and Turner eligible to play??

compos excuse of being on holiday is disappointing for him but i'm sure he will be able make the final.

His excuse though is better than that of spencerblokes (Remember him) who missed Spencer's league cup tie at Sileby to go and see Julian Clarey in Panto. - No commitment eh!!!

[knowitall]

Did you know that Julian Clary has been living in Long Buckby while he's been appearing in panto?

Could he be a surprise package in the vacant manager's seat?

[blissycook]

yep UCL Watcher.. both players can play....and good news.. Steve Diggin played for Bournemouth at Crystal palace today.. and will be able to play saturday in the VASE.. what a bonus.... VASE fever in my house.... cant wait.. the dream lives on..

[blissycook]

in regard to Julian Clary.... on no he isnt, oh yes he is oh no he isnt... oohh ahh I love a panto ...

[doughboyhaydn]

Would just like to wish both Potton and Cogenhoe all the best in their Vase games this saturday, if the games postponed do they have to automatically play them the following week, or is another seperate date fix for them???

haydn

[blissycook]

Thank you! Match would be changed to next Saturday, as would any replay (as Causweway did not want to travel midweek).

Unfortunately Potton lost to Totton 2-1

Was a good match, but some of the refereeing descisions were awful!

[UCL Watcher]

Cogenhoe postponed - Cooks travelled all the way to the West Midlands only to find a pitch that was never going to be playable.
