Well it's not the starting line up I would have chosen. In a game like this need fight all over the pitch and no potential liabilities so I wouldn't have started either Vic or Maghoma. Hope they both prove me wrong.

Don’t like the look of that starting 11 !

My sort of thinking. 

I get the point about Dempsey, but I guess we'll see.

It appears a very attack minded line up, so we'll need to pass the ball well and take our chances.

DELAYED KICK-OFF!

Due to heavy traffic and to allow the safe entry of supporters inside the DW Stadium, kick-off has been delayed until 8:15pm.

Famous last words ofc, but Hughes out and Humphrys on the bench is a big bonus for us

Aye, iirc Northampton had loads unavailable. 

Just got to play the opposition on the pitch, and not think about who is or isn't playing.

Would you prefer we stuck with Saturdays?

Would have preferred Dempsey & Iredale to be starting, but the team looks ok ish.

I think the same potential issue is there irrespective of who we have in midfield. 

However, you would still put Dempsey as one of our more combative midfielders.

Of course, if his stats are saying he's not at his peak then a rest makes sense.

The main aim has to be providing the opportunity for Sheehan to be at his best, which by all accounts, he wasn't at Blackpool. 

Guess we'll see soon enough.

Both played in the home game

Just for balance

[Rizlar]

Sheehan will be the key for me he as a good game we win if he doesn’t we are in trouble  .

[radcliffe white]

Glad I didn’t bother 8.15 ko fuck that 

[Take Hunt Off]

Dempsey & Iredale show they have battling qualities , surely those assets are what we need tonight?

Also Toal as left centre back is awkward to say the least 

Looks like we are going all out attack , very brave of Evatt , hope it works.

COYW.

100% . Humphrys is the one that worried me. Not worried about mcgennis, we know what he's about. And Greta Thunberg in CAM is no bother

Possibly left Dempsey in , fight fire with fire, maybe he needs a breather.

[TM Trotter]

Got a weird feeling this could be the game where Vic finally shows us what he's all about. Only just on my first pint too...

[Tonge moor green jacket]

Seems that those going by train may well have difficulty getting back because of the delay to kick off.

Really ? I'd have him here.

[FrancisFogarty]

These shithouses will be targeting Sheehan to stop him and Tommo to get him sent off.

[Leyther_Matt]

Walked through the turnstile a minute before delay was announced 🙃

Looks like 22.07 or the bus
