Tonights Team

Will Leon Osbourne keep his place after being subbed on Saturday & who will replace McLaren?

Will it be Thorney & Mickey upfront or will Bazza get the nod

Macca will go with...

Evans

Moncur
O'B
Lee
M Clarke

Daley
Boulding
Law
T Clarke

Conlon
Thorne

I'd like to see Sharry given a game in centre midfield. Why play a Huddersfield young centre back in our midfield when we have our own young lad itching to have a game? If Stu doesn't rate Sharry then why did he play him so much in pre season? I think he featured in every game didn't he? Come on Stu, give him a game!

Is T.Clarke still here, i thought Stu had to put a call in yesterday to see if he was going to stay. It was a very big issue on radio l##ds on saturday :rolleyes::rolleyes:

I hope he doesnt play Boulding wide as i think hes not up to it and with Daley tending to stay very wide (correctly IMO) it gives the team avery unbalanced and exposes the full back behind Boulding

Agree with both the above points. I think the team above is what Macca will go with but I'd play Sharry, who won rave reviews pre-season, and stick Boulding in his rightful position up front. Maybe a home game for Osborne is what he needs?

I think he likes him JD. but doesn't think he's ready for the 1st team. Strange as he's stronger than Osbourne . He must be in his thoughts though as i heard he wouldn't let him go on loan to BPA

[Northern]

I'd drop Osbourne, put Boulding on the wing, Conlon up front and Sharry in the centre!

[Devil's Advocate]

T. Clarke and Law are both here til after the game tonight, as I understand it McCall is desperately trying to get an extension to their loan spells.

They will both feature tonight, Boulding will be benched, Baz will start and he will give Osbourne another chance. tup:

[Jantje]

Clarkes here for another month and he's still waiting for the Blunts to reply about Law

[beerbantam]

When is Bollock due back??

On about 2 mins 45 secs

[Newborn Bantam]

Going by the reactions to saturdays game I'd guess:

Evans
OBrien
M Clarke
Lee
Moncur
Nix
T Clarke
Law
Daley
Conlon
Thorne / Boulding

Thorne and Boulding haven't been on form recently and Conlon deserves a place in the starting 11 really. Boulding hasn't exactly impressed when shoved out to the wing so Nix may come in. Osbourne might play, but central midfield needs to be stronger with Nix tucking in, especially with McLaren out.

[mowgli]

I'd play Evans in goal, Arnison at RB if he's fit, OB at left back, Lee and T Clarke CB (or Bower if he's fit), Nix and Daley on the wings, Law and Sharry CM with Boulding and Thorne up front.

I know the team will be nothing like that as TJ and M Clarke are both undroppable for some reason??? I'm not a big M Clarke fan, I think he's clumsy and tonight will be a real test for him against Ward and Lester. If he has a stormer of a game, we keep a clean sheet and M Clarke is man of the match i'll be the 1st to congratulate him and say I was wrong. tup:

[Garlic Breath]

I'd drop Osbourne, put Boulding on the wing... Conlon up front and Sharry in the centre and bring in Whatamagumbo in as one of the subs.

[Spoonhead]

Sharry and Topp don't feature so far this season yet we are sitting pretty in the league....Maybe Stu has 1 or 2 better ideas about players than us armchair managers! :D :wet:

[jimmy]

Once again the team looked disjointed and the defence were at sixes and sevens, McCall was taking instructions from Jacobs during the 2nd half ffs
