Surely the team has to be: Matthews Hume Xhemajli Wright Willis Onien Power Scowen Maguire Graham Obrien
That hawkes from Hartlepool might be on the bench if he signs in time, Neil diamond also should be there
Two similar strikers and two similar midfield players duplicating those already in the starting line up was a handicap, surely one of the exciting young guns should have been chosen, even just to show some faith after showing such pre-season promise. The original decision to chose Dobson over Scowen was also mystifying to all other than Parky watchers. I liked the subs he did eventually make but they should have been made much earlier. Unfortunately these traits are so Parky like that they come as no surprise. I would not be shocked to see only one like for like change or no change at all, for Oxford game, who forewarned will already know exactly what they will face and how to combat it. Unless Oxford are as badly prepared as we are, I fear another draw or worse coming up.
Seeing as there's a weeks break it'll probably be the same team as Bristol, hell I wouldn't be surprised if Parky tried to sneak Dobson on.
Burge Willis Wright Xhemajli O'Nien Scowen Power Hume Maguire Grigg Graham Matthews, Feeney, Neil, Gooch, O'Brien, Diamond, Wyke. Hopefully..
Are the club appealing against the red card? If they do and are successful, I don't think the manager will change much. We dominated the game and had we not given them something more to defend I think we'd have seen a different result. ( tin hat at the ready)
not even going to try to guess 'parky's picks' during the season...there are only two possible reasons for the lads not getting at least a bit of time after being on the bench they have stated they do not fancy themselves in a 'real' game...if so, why bother being a footballer (so highly unlikely) someone was talking ****e when saying they had young lads they would like to play rather than taking mcgeady back and at this moment in time, as no injuries have been reported, i know which one i am putting my money on. would hope scowen gets a start and diamond at least gets a decent 25-30 mins as he just gets the nod ahead of neil for me.
@RichMennear Understand #safc will not be appealing against the George Dobson red card so he will now serve a ban
Leadbitter looked comfortable against villa but he’ll struggle in the league, scowen power Hume and onien probably our best bet
Well I'm still in a foul mood after Saturday. So fully expect Leadbitter to replace Dobson and to hear that Diamond and Neil have been sent out on loan for more experience.
My left field take on Sproates33 team Burge Willis Wright Xhemajli O'Nien Leadbitter Hume Scowen Power Grigg Graham Matthews, Feeney, Neil, Gooch, O'Brien, Diamond Maguire, Worth a try maybe.
