what time they on sale?

I'm not watching it me, can't handle big games, I'll be hiding behind the couch like my nephews did when Dr Who was on.  

LWB is up for debate - I would stick rather than bring DJ in.

Morley was awful Saturday but think him and Dempsey form the basis of our best midfield. Until recently Lee would be the other but been a while since he performed well. I do not like Sheehan so personally would play Lego head (GJ) , be surprised if not Sheehan though.

Upfront alongside Dion I am sure it will be Elias but would like say Big Dan, his pace to provide an outlet and some signs he has something to offer, Big Vic not made the impact we must have expected but cometh the hour..... ??

Go on, I’ll take you on, 2 questions:

- What makes you think we won’t play like Bolton? 

- Who are the donkeys we should avoid? 

a) Nothing which is why I didn't say we won't. But I did say we might play Dion as a lone striker and play e.g. Lee as a second 10.

b) Any of our "big strikers" - shouldn't be needed as we'd be trying to play through them with quick passing and movement rather than hoofing it or trying to outmuscle them.

Lets hope you are wrong, as on Saturday their defenders were having a day off with them 2 up top, the ball just kept coming back at us, yet when the 2 big lads came on it changed for the better, it gave their defence more to think about, nothing against Kachunga, but we're definitely needing a big lad up top, how far is Bod off?

Changes afoot…..

FFS!

Mind games?

'Overuse' is the one that is worrying. First name I thought is Connor Bradley, and with Geth out as well it would leave us looking unbalanced.

Tbf, when we played Plymouth, there was a fair few players missing as well either through cup tied or out injured.

Let's seen but we're more than capable!

I wonder how Iredale and Bod are doing, could worth chucking them in if it is possible

As long as it’s not Trafford Charles or Bradley it’ll be reet

Thats not what Luton did last night.

Impact - Bradley took a few early on, but I’d be surprised if it was him based on the fact he lasted the whole game. Dempsey took a bit of a shocker that went unnoticed in the middle of the second half, he tried to show it didn’t hurt (looked like their player was trying to leave one on him so he didn’t want him to think he’d achieved it) but you could tell it properly hurt him. Lee also looked like he was hurt pretty soon after he came on.

Hope it’s neither of the first 2, alongside Traff and Santos they’re probably the other 2 critical players on the team sheet.

I heard something like Toal, Johnston and Santos only played their first game together as a back 3 the other week, bonkers.

Not had great luck with injuries this season, lots to crucial players as well but depth has definitely helped. 

Must admit I do think it limits Bradley when Jones isn’t there. Toal has been excellent at the back but missed Gethin on Saturday 

Reckon Toal gives a touch more in the air thougb, which may be vital against Barnsley.

Jones benefits Bradley link up play but your right Toal is better with set pieces which is they are strong. Doesn’t help have all eleven in the box so Dion should be on the half way line which will take two of their players out

Charles is another we cannot afford to lose, knowing our look it will be Bradley and Demspey. 

Lee copped for a heavy one 30 seconds after coming on too

This.

The impact injury could be from training btw rather than trying to pin it on Saturday

Dirty set of bastards they were and the referee did fuck all to protect us. Watch first tackle on them Friday we get a yellow card

Yep, agree with that.

Obviously, its what the coaching staff want, but I've never got my head round having no one left up at a corner.

Evatt confirmed they were injured during the match. Could just be mind games though.
