Having lost the chance of the Champions League earlier, Palace Casuals turned their sights on the League. Away at FC Brandenburg, again the might of the Casuals attack fell on resilient defence, and only a long-range shot in the 77th minute by the home side found the net. So the League looks like slipping away as well, as apart from an early injury to MC Christie, ST Neagu and left winger Hansen both picked up bookings, which mean they miss the next match, which is against the league leaders...
*Head Scratching time* - the league leaders use the Narrow Diamond formation (as did today's league opponents). 4-5-1V has previously stood me in good stead but relied upon the wingers to provide the attack around the opponent's central block. I certainly have a replacement for Hansen but he's very much a second string player - what other formation could I use, or just go for broke and put the players in and let them get on with it?
