    I’d much rather Neil was given a shot than Diamond. Diamond has been poor when he’s played imo.

    He confirmed that he is himself. No idea on the squad number.

    Oh nooooooo....
    “As it stands, it looks like we’ll be able to pick from the same group of players that were available against Fleetwood Town.”

    Neil in midfield .

    Taylor son of Parky, or has he a mind of his own.

    What’s that got to do with anything? Mcgeady himself has confirmed its so I think I’ll believe him over a few fans on a football forum.

    I can't see Wyke missing out. After all, he may be a cart horse, but he's the only forward scoring goals at the minute, so I think he'll start.

    I'm going for a 2 -0 win to the lads.

    He won't be anywhere near the first team until he is nearing match fit. He is currently on a pre season programme to get him up to speed after a long lay off through injury.

    He has not played a first team match since July, so he has a ways to go yet before he is fit enough for the bench, let alone the starting 11

    Great post again by RTB. Not 606's Yosser Hughes <laugh>

    If a DOF/manager is close to being appointed, I hope he has been consulted about what formation he would like to play. I expect that they will stick with something close to what we have had, but with different personnel.

    I hope he plays 1 or 2 youngsters. I'd go with;

    Matthews

    O'Nien
    Sanderson
    Wright
    McLaughlin
    McFadzean

    Leadbitter
    Scowen

    Embleton
    Wyke
    Hume

    Subs: Burge, Flanagan, Diamond, Neil, Dobson, Curry, Graham

    Hume looks as dangerous as anyone, so with McFadzean back and Goochy out, now would be a good time to try him further up the pitch.

    2-0 to the Lads to round off a few brilliant days!

    A boring 1-0 to keep us in the pack will do me.

    I like the look of this team, fluid and pacy, and the handicaps removed from the scene, its the sort of team a few of us on here have wanted to see from the beginning of the season.

    Taylor has said he wants the players to express themselves, play with freedom and show what they can do.....already an improvement on PP. Hopefully a big performance from the lads, good win and go into a new era full of positivity

    I predicted 4-1 before PP went. Might just change my prediction and up it to 6-1. Come on boys show what you can really do with an attack minded performance.

    Really looking forward to this game and I hope the players feel that they have something to prove to themselves and the fans.

    Whoever Taylor picks should be doing everything to keep their place so get out there and fight for the shirt and get stuck into these ****ers.

    3-0 to the Lads. Ha'Way Away Away Away.

    Great thread RTB.
