    All that and fatigue more than anything, I know Parky is conservative but he's not some kind of lunatic sadist. He'll probably want to play as many of the same players as possible but I've got no doubt whatsoever that we're going to see a wide mix of players in that time.

    Parky wont change anything until he is forced to, its his style and its not necessarily a bad one, but extremely boring, especially when sticking rigidly to weaknesses that are clear and obvious.

    Only puts him in the same boat we are!!

    although I think Graham is better at that role than either of the other 2!

    Fwiw I'd play a front two. Grigg and Graham.

    I think I am coming round to that, possibly leave out one of Maguire or Gooch, and make a change at half time if they are giving one their usual lacklustre displays.

    That's the thing. The whole forward line is dependant on Gooch and Maguire. If they're not available or not firing we're basically toothless. Maybe change it up and have more of the onus on the actual strikers to get the goals. Concept that seems to elude Parkinson.

    Haha Maguire is the only player we have who can score from nothing regardless of how he’s playing. Undroppable imo.

    I think Gooch is very similar to Maguire, playing them both is the problem imo., same with Maguire and McGeady before that unless they score they are liabilities, so give them half a game each, competition might bring the best out of them.
