I can’t believe how strong we’ve gone there. Shocked O’Nien starts and can’t believe Stewart/McGeady are in the squad.
Cheers... not that bad, perhaps taking this competition too seriously? Maybe I am carping a bit... Hawkes could have started? I suggest this cos I would like a striker to play off Stewart and thought he could be given a chance.
Perfect balance for me. 8 changes. And one of the three to retain his place (Neil) hopefully won’t be needed to start on Saturday.
I want a win tonight. Way too early in season to worry about too many games. A win tonight to make it 2/2 is way more important than trying to avoid going too deep into this competition
Spot on for me too, I'd have been tempted by a full on second team but realistically you need a couple of seniors in there. As MDoc99 says O'Nien needs minutes to get up to speed.
My attitude entirely. Win this, build early season confidence and lose to a higher team later on. This is just one game and players have the chance to impress and gain fitness.
cheers again RTB... shame there is no stream, would have been nice to see pritchards debut and seen how he 'fitted in'...doubt he will get the full 90 mind but having to rely on wallace and grommit for commentary i know i will not get the full picture, never mind, still searching IPTV to see if i find something.
Its still early August and weve only had one competitive match and players needing vital game time. Im happy to see a strong lineup. Playing a competitive match is alot different to being on the training pitch so this match will be ideal for us. Im sure Johnson will give whoever played a day off tomorow to recover
