Now we’re not going to be the kind of podcast with all the insider knowledge. We’ll leave that to others who actually have decent contacts – we are fans, not journalists. However, here at From The Rookery End we have been leaked an email between Malky and the Squad*. It’s interesting read and you get some good insight into how Malky and the boys plan for away games and that they have the same pressures as we do in Sunday league teams.

Guys,
Our first game of the season is Norwich City away at Carrow Road –
Friday 6th August, 7.45pm KO. It’s going to be on Sky so please make
sure you’ve had a good haircut and you’re wearing fresh undies. You
never know we might get to meet Delia for some decent grub after the
game.
I’ve put in a link to the ground below. If you get there early enough
you can park in Morrisons next door. Let me know if you can play. First come,
first served.
Cheers
MM

I’m in. I was wondering if I could push forward a bit more this season
boss? Would love to double my goal stats.

I’m definitely in – goes without saying this season I guess. I
suppose it’s my job to lead the convoy of cars as well. Let’s all
meet at the ground for about 1pm. We’ll want to be ahead of the Friday traffic.
Oh and Danny – postcode for your Chav Nav is – NR1 1JE

Guys
A quick one. Apparently these boys play in yellow, so can you all make sure you
bring a black shirt. I’ve got a few spare if you need to borrow one.

Scott – ‘Cos we’ve see you play on the pitch?
I’m up for it. Oh, and Marvin S says he can play.
He would reply but his e-mail is down and he’s waiting for IT to fix it.

Got a new lad Tom A that fancies a game so that’s 14 and we can only
use 3 subs. Looks like Matt has missed out again!
