    Alex

    Cedric - Maya - Hoedt - Ryan

    JWP - Oriol - Pierre

    SophieAnn - Gabbi - Susan


    If Mario is 100% fit, then maybe him for JWP or Oriol. I expect Long to play instead of Gabbi.

    This is what I’d pick today and go for it. I’d have the from three ladies rotating all through the game; very fluid to upset the Hornets nest.

    I wouldn't call a defeat today a disaster personally. I'm expecting a comfortable home win.

    Any reason why? They've only won one of their last nine matches.

    We've only won one in 12 or so haven't we? <whistle>

    Nah I'm expecting a comfortable home win because they are a better team than us and I have absolutely zero faith in the manager.

    They couldn't ask for a better fixture if we're honest to try and break their ****ty run.

    A chance for us to drag them into the mire with us then - and start our climb out of it.

    Not overly confident - it's hard to be that in current circumstances - but this is a winnable game for us. Could easily go either way imo.

    Sadly I think you’re right. Not expecting anything other than a loss. No idea what Pellegrino has to do to get sacked?

    Oh I agree and said earlier in the thread that it's a great opportunity to win and drag them into it, it's certainly winnable.

    Doesn't mean I'm confident we will though <laugh>

    We have a lot more draws. this won't be a comfortable match for either team i expect. but we couldn't ask for a better team to try and break our ****ty run either. just hope the players will be up for it.

    Expecting a tight game. We normally start games well, hopefully we can take any chances that come out way.

    Glad Chalobah is still out, thought he ran the show at our place.

    1-2 Saints

    Chalobah was very good as was that Doucoure. They absolutely dominated us in midfield last time.

    Completely agree.

    But on the flip side, our midfield that day was Davis (no comment) and Romeu (who is a shadow of the player we had last season).
