CASUALS V FC TRIANGLE PREVIEW
Friday 5 March 2009

The mighty Casuals are back in league action this Saturday against title rivals FC Triangle. With a strong squad to select from the Casuals go into the game on the back of three consecutive wins and in buoyant mood.
Having lost out to Triangle 5-0 back in November, the Casuals will be keen to settle the score and prove their credentials as genuine title contenders.
With the business end of the season approaching, Skellys men are in good shape. With a semi-final of the League cup to look forward to and the home straight of the title race coming up it promises to be an exciting run in.
That said tomorrows game is make or break for the Casuals title credentials. Anything less than a win would effectively rule them out of the title race but Skelly is confident his team can do the business:
"Tomorrow we plan to put the record straight with Triangle" he said.
"The lads are looking sharper than they have for a long while and we're passing the ball really well at the moment. If we fly out the blocks, take the physical challenge to them and put away our chances we?ll get the win."
Triangle are currently 4th in the league table but boast the best points average in Division One with 24 points from just 10 games making them the bookies favourites for the title. But with 14 league games still to cram in little over two months the games are stacking up for them.
Having suffered their heaviest loss of the season last time out in 5-1 reverse against Flanders FC in the cup, Triangle may not be relishing the prospect of a visit to Richardson Evans, which is fast becoming a fortress for the Casuals.
The Casuals are yet to drop points in a home game this season. If that record is still intact come the final whistle tomorrow afternoon the Blues title charge is well and truly back on!
