I've looked at the probable match squad and have no idea what team/system/tactics Ross will use ...

... surely that affects the team.

I spend the first 15 minutes, of every game, trying to work out the plan.

If it's the same for the players no wonder we start games slowly.
Well going by his comments re the international postponement he wants to stick to the same defence if possible. I would like to see the team as the OP has it but injury concerns over Mcgeady and Macnulty might get in the way. Also expect one of McGeough or Leadbitter to start rather than Dobson because that's the set-up Ross usually uses although not what I'd prefer.

PS Nice to see that while there appears to be concern over JR on here it isn't expressed abusively with added four letter words
 
One of the few grounds I’ve never been to. A lovely city. Have a great day lads.
It is mate. I only graduated there last month and I was really impressed by the place. However, bring on the 3 points!
 
Hoping the lads put in a performance for the 2,000 going.

Hope all going enjoy it and come home happy and safe
 
I'm anticipating the same starting line-up as last week, and I'm expecting Jack to think similarly 'cos this is the start of us being settled, especially in defence.

Changes when necessary, and hopefully just to liven things up in the second half when some (like De Bock) are tiring and the match has already been won (by us) :emoticon-0105-wink:

This is also the start of Jack getting us more on his side than we've been lately :emoticon-0100-smile

p.s. no, I haven't been drinking <cheers>
 
I'm hoping for the same back 4 to start getting some understanding and then working as a unit

Bring on the 2 Mc's on about 60 to get a run out and finish the game off.... hopefully
 
Good side. That looks like being our first choice back four and, on first viewing, it seems like Willis and Lynch might make a decent centre back partnership. Glad to see McNulty back on the bench as well. Got to put in an impressive performance and get three points today, worryingly enough I'm quite confident it'll happen!

We will need to be on our game. Appleton’s first home game he will have them up for it.
