Mad how burn gets included in everyone's team

Has anyone else played as many minutes as him this season?

Who else are you playing LCB? Botman has a knock.

Its the eternal conundrum of benching players and maybe needing them later on, perhaps futily, or start them and hope to have a lead by the hour - much much easier said than done.

Don't know what I'd do.

The Sanusi shouts are wild. 

 

It's right that we rotate because the physical and mental toll on the players last night could weigh heavily, so it's not even about protecting them, it's about playing players who might want it more on the night. But not children lads, please.

 

The injuries are a fucker atm, mind. Don't see any way Gordon doesn't play.

 

54's team makes sense.

Nah, wingers is where you can experiment a bit in a game like this IMO. Let him get his chance for 60 minutes while giving Gordon a rest and if it's not working sub them. 

 

Edit: Howe won't do this mind. It'll be Murphy and Gordon on the wings unless Willock is given a go.

We have a free week until the next game after this one, so I think we can go fairly strong. Probably worth giving players like Miley or Willock a run out though as we need them to get some match fitness.

Howe always goes stronger than what I expect.

 

Anyway one of Bruno/Tonali will start, possibly half each.

 

Pope

 

Tino

Krafth

Schar

Targett

 

Bruno

Miley

Longstaff 

 

Osula*

Wilson

Willock

 

*Howe hinted at Osula as a right wing option.

I wouldn't start Wilson yet. Id like to see the washing machine get a run out.

Cricketers best away pub nearby? Venturing down and would like at least one pint. 

You can comfortably have a drink in The Cricketers, and it’s close to the ground. A lot of the pubs in town are fine too. For food, you’ll find fan zones at the ground are okay, or there’s a Greggs near the Cricketers.


The bad old days are mostly over - but like most clubs we have a few idiots who will be looking for any excuse to have a go. By and large though you can walk to the ground wearing colours and feel perfectly safe.

 

There will be pre- match ‘entertainment’ (subjective) with local artiste ‘Jaykae’ ( no idea) doing his stuff. Enjoy!
