| Two
long away trips in the space of four days was a
show of the Crocs dedication to the cause -
Yeovil on a Tuesday night following the visit to
Carlisle on Saturday. It was close to the
loyalty showed by the Crocs after the infamous
Sunderland and Derby away in 5 days incident two
season ago - that time we ended up seeing
Brighton lose both games, scoring 0 and
conceding 5. Hopefully a repeat would not be in
order, but Yeovil are a team doing well in the
league, while Brighton continued to struggle. A
trip to Huish Park would be no easy journey |
| Mode
of Transport: |
The
Witham Mobile was used for this trip, with a
visit to Bournemouth beforehand so Witham could
visit Gemma, who attends Uni there. This gave
McCarthy and Kane the opportunity to explore
Bournemouth
|
| Team: |
Mr
Wilkins again employed the 4-3-3 formation that
had worked so well in his first few games, with
a line-up of: Henderson, El Abd, Santos, Lynch,
Mayo; Fraser, Hammond, Carpenter; Cox, Hart,
Revell
|
| Kit: |
Yeovil
wore their home colours of green and white
hooped shirts, white shorts and white socks.
Brighton chose to wear their blue and white home
shirts, and combine these with the away shorts
and stockings, both of a blue persuasion. Wayne
Henderson chose what appeared to be a grey
jersey on his return to the team

| Dean
Wilkins Attire: |
Mr
Wilkins again went for the training ground look,
this time combining a white standard issue Errea
training jacket with black trousers
|
| Weather: |
A
fine evening in Somerset, cool and good
conditions
|
| Stadium
Rating: |
Your
standard new non-league style stadium. Four
identical stands, two with seating and two with
terracing, with no roof for the away end. A nice
stadium, if slightly basic. 7/10
|
| Food
Rating: |
Neil
Kane summed it up when he announced to the
waiting que that his hotdog was like a penis.
Despite this, McCarthy found it rather
nutritional. 6/10
|
| Entertainment: |
The
closest thing to entertainment was Jake Robinson
breaking the goal during the subs half time warm
up, ensuring 'Farmer Giles' had to the fix it.
1/10
|
| Friendliness
of Locals: |
The
ticket office men were particularly friendly in
believing McCarthy and Kane were Under 16, and
the people we saw around the stadium tended to
be of a decent nature. 8/10
|
| Standard
of Local Females: |
A
distinct lack of women around the stadium was a
major let down, although we can only presume
they would have been inbreds anyway. 2/10
|
| Steward
Rating: |
No
troubles again with the stewards, even allowing
McCarthy and Kane to wear Smirnoff Ice boxes on
their heads. 8/10
|
| Flag
Attention: |
Kane
wore the flag as a biblical cloak, so minimal
attention was received
|
| Match
Report: |
Another
disappointing day on the road for the Albion, as
they were comprehensively beaten 2-0 by Yeovil.
Marcus Stewart opened the scoring for the home
side, before former Albion loan player Wayne
Gray added a second in the second half. The
defeat should end Dean Wilkins chances of
getting the managers job on a permanent basis,
and the new manager will have a major job on his
hands if he is to keep the Seagulls from
returning to League Two
|
| Thought
of the Day: |
Do
people who have fake limbs attached get the
option of having some form of machinery instead
of an arm, for example a chainsaw
