I think that's a very measured viewpoint. I would still stick with Owen now, unless he pulls out a real stinker, as the team as a unit is performing well so no need to change things, but come the World Cup qualifiers Owen needs to be fighting for his place. Don't think Vassell is necessarily the man to replace him, some sort of Rooney-clone would be ideal, but I bet FIFA have some sort of rule against it. So funny watching the Italians score last night and run over to their bench who already knew the other score...

As for the AGM, fairly uneventful. Div 1 next season will be:-

Shefford
Travellers Friend
MDM
Hampstead Norreys
Partick
Westwood
Newbury PO
WKD
Shalbourne
Vodafone
Medeway Kingsclere

I'm sure there's another one but can't think of it. Basically TVS and Cold Ash went up, Travellers Friend and Westwood came up from Div2 and nobody got relegated down into Div1. NTS got relegated down into Div2. Kingsclere are a newly voted in team. There are two new sides in Div2 as well.

WKD appeared to pull out of the league at the end of the meeting but really got drowned in the background noise so I don't know whether they really do intend to pull out or not. They seemed to be upset that MDM didn't get promoted, dunno why that angered them so much, but there you go. Season set to start September 5th.

Genghis has taken up karate. That wasn't part of the AGM, I just figured the public should be made aware.
