    Interesting line up. Wonder if the focus is now on resting players and testing partnerships ready for the play offs

    Roberts to score tonight, will take a 0-2.

    09 from a corner and Roberts from a break away second half

    Amazing achievement, fabulous servant, model pro and prototypical example of someone you'd want to represent your club.

    From a box crashing midfielder to a top championship centre back, quality.

    Front what I heard only the Browne one was planned at the start of the week.

    Injuries and other circumstances have forced changes.

    Let's we do!

    Because we don't have a right winger to play. That's why.

    If Wilson wasn't carrying a knee knock then maybe Mayenda. The fact poveda is a wet napkin makes it hard. Least Roberts is showing up every week, in shape and playing.

    So is that Mayen
    According to the team sheet so is Cirkin. If he had been done for DD I couldnt see RLB picking him at all.

    I think it's fine, happy to see some rotation. Keep the squad fresh, get some playing time for some of the other lads.

    E.g. Cirkin gets injured last game of regular season and we're ****ed in the playoffs, it's good to get Hjelde on the pitch a bit more in the run up, imo.

    Honestly wouldn’t mind if he’s sold.

    not the player he once was

    He should be doing more in goals scored and assists

    I don’t think Hjelde is a bad player at all. Some got onto him early and it’s stuck.

    He’s solid enough, tidy enough. He can do a job for us.

    Cirks been off the boil a few weeks, sometimes good to remind folk they aren’t untouchable.

    Top bloke. Clashes with some (often deliberate mischief to amuse himself) but I’ve seen a bloke who time and time again has done bits on this board to help out other lads fans.

    Don’t know the fella on a personal level but I’d have a pint with him any day.
