    Yeah - they post that video of him arriving then he's not even on the bench <doh>

    Weve randomly had quite a few players play between us and them . Rae, Dichio, Charlie Hurley, Ballard, Obrien to name just a few

    Dont see the point in dack starting but hemir hasnt done enough to start yet

    Watson should be on bench instead of burstow

    Be interesting on system, could be 3421, 433, 442

    I still prefer alese as lb so would like us to play a back 4 with styles in cm

    Strange to see Hume benched. Might still be 5 at the back with Alese in a 3?

    I wasn't meaning to influence this game though, both won't be here next season so might as well play players who will be.

    Disappointing end to the season for Neil. Been outstanding throughout. Rest up and recover Dan, get sorted for pre season.

    Don't understand Dack playing. What's the point?

    Why no Watson on the bench?

    Happy to see Evans.

    Hope it's a 4 at the back with Styles in midfield.

    Hopefully a back 4 with Styles as the 6. Think that’s his best position be good to get a proper look at what he’s about.

    Looks a poor team with some strange decisions. That said. Game means bot all.

    Yeah that’s a fair point, could have been an ideal chance to give Hemir 3 starts on the trot

    Amazing work from RTB Thankyou. I think we will just have a bit more desire to be bothered , and that will be enough to see the three points. But think it'll be a game of a few outstanding moments, rather than 90 minutes of continual enjoyment.

    Yeah good point. Whys Burstow on the bench when he clearly hasnt done enough to be any part of our squad never mind being a sub. Hes one of the worst strikers ive ever seen play for us and the fact he's contracted to Chelsea is mind boggling.
    Dacks starting today aswell, we should be planning for next season now and given our own homegrown kids a chance and valuable experience for them.

    Hes done his job now for this season. Hope he can rest, recover and come back even stronger now for next season and find a pair of shooting boots because thats all thats missing in his game. He couldnt hit a barn door at the moment

    Me neither, Dack played at DM for the U23s and did a decent job when he was getting match fit.
