    Looks far more attacking.
    A big shake up though which is concerning. A bit of a knee jerk?
    I'd rather see the newbies drip fed into the team. I'm happier with Turnbull behind Colwill (though I'll need to change scorer as I thought Ramsey would start)

    Surprised he's dropped Siopis, but then I suppose he put in a shift and a half on Saturday.

    Be interesting to see how Meite gets on being back on the wing from the start. He owes us all a performance as he's really struggled to hit the heights he should have.....

    I’m not been that impressed TBH with Siopis. Ok he runs around like a dynamo and wins a few tussles but his passing is shocking, he creates nothing and hasn’t come anyone near scoring.

    As for Miete I’ve no real idea what his attributes are, if any if I’m being frank.

    It’s another unpredictable team selection , Grant being unavailable aside, but wouldn’t it better starting Ramsey and bring him off later rather than he did on Saturday when he made no real difference?

    I thought Siopis played well Saturday. Won some balls he really had no right to and played it simple to others... There were a few times he was looking for a pass after winning it and nothing was on in front of him.

    Guess Wintle is meant to be our holding player tonight instead... Well him and Turnbull.

    I was only just thinking that the goals are flying in early in the Championship tonight. I need to keep my thoughts under control.

    Well at least we're trying to even it up immediately.

    Just one of those things. No matter what team anyone puts out, there's no legislating for getting caught on the hop.
    On pretty even terms now I would say.

    Mmmm WBA coasting in 2nd gear:emoticon-0138-think

    City are so pedestrian in the opposition half; absolutely no goal threat. Will we ever see a goal created by a pass through the lines for a striker to notch again or a cut back from the by line for a midfielder/striker to sweep home?

    Ah well, that's done us.....

    Shame as the performance hasn't been too bad.

    The Wurzels will be talking about promotion again after tonight now too (until they lose again, and then it'll be all about lack of ambition and needing a squad revamp again).
    Cue Supcon I'm sure...

    Still, could be worse, we could be losing heavily to Leeds at home.... Oh hang on a minute..
