I notice the next round of international fixtures are the weekend we play Colchester at home (5th Sept).

Not sure if sammon is still in the ROI setup but Edgar and reed are likely to have call ups. can you see us having the game moved?

I can see Ché getting called up for the U20s as well ;)
 
At first, I thought it would be unlikely for us to get the postponement, but looking at our first team players that might get called up:

Sammon - We have a lot of strikers injured, unfit or awful, so we'd miss out on Sammon. We'd either have to play McNuts or use Sharp as a lone striker.

Che - You can probably tell how much I rate Che. As UB said, he will probably get called up for a youth team. This means that we no longer have a good inside forward on the left wing, or a left winger at all (assuming Done is still injured in September).

Edgar - Without Edgar, our back 4 would just turn into a repeat of last season. No confidence at all, panicking at every aerial ball, it would be a mess.

That's only three players, but it would have a huge effect on the team's performance as a whole. Depending on any other signings NA makes, this game could well be postponed.
 
I'm fairly sure we can apply for postponement if we have 3 or more players. We'll definitely lose Edgar, not sure about any others.

Sammon hasn't played for Republic of Ireland since 2013.
Reed has been in the England U18's squad but may be too old now?
Current England U19 and U20 players are almost all from Premier League clubs.
It would be quite an achievement for both Reed and Adams to get selected for those squads.

Conclusion. A postponement due to international call ups seems unlikely. Edgar will be missing for some key games.
 
If it looks like Edgar is gonna be called up we should

Sign another CentreBack !!!
 



Kler Heh is apparently to be called up by Myanmar as well. Not sure if he counts with him not being a first teamer though.
 
We need to get that game called off or we'll be all at sea and swimming against the tide.
 
Called it days ago....

trust them thread happy bladesmadders to start another bloody thread about it ;)
