On the word of the Goat: The Bermudan and the Slavs with Swiss passports!

Last updated : 08 September 2009 By westfield shrimper
Immigration control might make a visit to Carrow Road for tonight's first reserve game of the season for Ricky Duncan's team, kick-off 19.30.

Former Shrimper striker Shaun Goater has recommended 28-year-old Bemudan international Khano Smith, a 6ft 3in left-back, who has played 24 times for the national side, scoring 7 goals.

He has mainly played for a couple of American MLS sides, New England Revolution and the New Red Bulls.

Then there's the story of the Slavic duo, Danijel Subotic and Danijel Kosovac.

6ft 2in forward Subotic is Yugoslav born but has a Swiss passport. Signed to Portsmouth, he has yet to make his first team debut for the south coast side.

Kosovac is a 6ft 2in midfielder who could play for both Serbia and Switzerland and will start on the bench. He made 26 appearances for Real Saragossa B but is now a free agent.

With 7 members of the first team squad starting, blimey that's nearly 50%, it should be a fun evening for anybody popping along.

The home side will not be weak though as experienced Cody McDonald, Chris Martin, Simon Whaley and Goran Maric should all play.

Keeper Theoklitos will be making his first appearance in the famous yellow and green since he let in seven against Colchester on the opening day of the season.

Norwich reserve team boss Ian Crook told his official site: "People need games. The gaffer, (ex-head Farmer Paul Lambert), has had a look at things and feels these players need to get some games under their belts. The gaffer will be there watching so it is a chance to for them to impress and force their way into his thinking and make it as difficult as possible for him not to play them.'

Norwich City Squad: Theoklitos, Francomb, Habergham, Doherty, Stephens, Russell, Whaley, McDonald, Maric, Hoolahan, Martin, Dumic, Steer, Kelly, Dawkin, Brindley.

Southend United: Joyce, Sankofa, Smith, O'Keefe, Whittikar, Clayton, Scannell, Sawyer, Freedman, Subotic, Walker.

Subs; Dennis, Bentley, Milner, Crawford, Kosovac
