I think if Daws starts to slow - and foul/shirt-pull - he should be subbed with Dudgeon; and, i/f Cam Stewart has to come off, there's now Garcia in the mix. Incidentally, if Rich G is on the bench, who'll be off it? Adebola? UTT
Yes possibly, he will bring a lot of energy at a later stage of a game and can be placed where its needed.
I'm happy with Gulacsi Rosenior Hobbs Chester Dudgeon/Dawson Evans McKenna Stewart Koren Mclean Fryatt
Could be but surely it will be Mcshane who steps down. Two full backs in your 5 subs isnt balanced enough. Mind you last two games Dele has hardly even warmed up so maybe NB doesnt rate him at all.
This is the line up I'd go with (Dawson but bring Dudge on if necessary). Garc on the bench but not sure who he'd replace.
If he's going to drop a defender it's more likely to be Dudgeon, as McShane can play centre back and full back, but I think Adebola is more likely, mainly because Nick favours talented footballers and Adebola isn't one.
FFS looks like I'll be ****in missing it now as mrs been admitted to hospital. Gutted! Hopefully I can get a chance to sneak off and fly down the m69 in time for kick off
I know you have divine status on here but why would he drop Dudgeon?? There is more chance of Tickler dropping Nicky Maynard references.
I agree, and I am sure it will be the same starting eleven. With a short time since our game against Birmingham, and 3 games in 7 days, wise use of sub's could be important, to bring on fresh legs with 30 mins to go.
I don't have divine status anywhere, other than my mothers house. I don't think he should drop Dudgeon, in fact I'd have him in the starting XI, with Dawson or McShane on the bench as cover, that way you don't need to drop Adebola(he's one of the only options we've got to change things if they're not going right).
Dudgeon covers defence and midfield so is unlikely I think. As OLM says though, McShane can play anywhere across the back. I wouldn't drop Dele either though, I'd keep him for his aerial threat and the possibility of the "curse of the former player" striking. Sorry Tom!
We'll see the same team that played Leicester and Birmingham. Gulasci Rosenior Chester Hobbs Dawson McKenna Evans McLean Koren Stewart Fryatt Gulasci McShane Dudgeon Cairney Adebola I doubt Garcia will be risked on the bench until he's played a couple more reserve games and trained a little more.
I think Garcia will make the bench, we've have played up his involvement in the squad too much to leave him out.
I have the team news.......the starting XI is unchanged, the only change is on the bench, where Garcia replaces Adebola.

We should go into this fixture with all the confidence. I just hope we don't go into it too complacent. To be fair they've drawn with alot of the top teams and gave West Ham a run for their money. 1-0 HCAFC for me. Fingers crossed.
They may be down in the basement at the moment, but they don't seem to get walloped by loads of goals.
