    DM has a headache if these 2 aren't fit to play Forest this weekend.
    http://www.bcfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10327~2547251,00.html

    Not sure if McAllister is fit so DM will probably go with Nyatanga.
    If NK misses out I'd be tempted to play Clarkson as a direct replacement, he seems ideal for that role.
    I hope DM resists playing 2 wide and 2 strikers.

    Any thoughts.

    'a certain "smaller" midfielder'

    To be fair when NK played for Millen he wasn't that much better than 'a certain "smaller" midfielder'.
    However McInnes has found a role that suits NK and now excels.
    Who knows, McInnes might work an even greater miracle - Junior hasn't the legs to get up and back like NK - he also can't tackle, pass forward, head, presss etc etc but the one/only thing LJ has in his favour is his 'football brain' and DM might surprise us all.

    Still think Clarkson's the best option instead of NK and also hope DM resists calls to play 2 strikers.

    Agreed Redprintt I would go with Clarkson too. I've always thought that was his best position.

    When he first arrived and played that position it coincided with a decent start to that season.

    It would be interesting if LJ started to see him in a more free role but Clarkson for me if Kilkenny doesn't make it.

    I was thinking your first choice Shiny, Woolford would be able to swap with Pearson during the games to prevent man marking.
    But also Macalister is fit as well now I think
