    It's either a true case of round pegs, round holes OR we've been repeating it so much everyone has it lodged in their brains....

    Yeah I'm more or less 50/50 regards those two. I think they both offer something different/lack certain qualities. Adarma's energy is useful, Archer is more clinical if given the chances. Neither are ideal, but I think with three creative players around them, eventually something will happen. With only two wide men? Nah. Won't score again.

    Has Fellows ever played more centrally as a 10?, there's a part of me that would like to see him running directly at the defence through the middle.

    Wiki says he has played as an AM.

    The way that he likes to run with the ball makes me think that he could play in any attacking midfield position. But I think it's his love of crossing, invariably with his right foot, which leads him to play on the right the most. With little aerial presence in our attack though, the need for such crossing is greatly reduced (unless low and hard).

    Don’t underestimate the power of the draw thread.

    Well done for getting it up so soon along with the good advice re phone use during matches and of course the, now obligatory LTL poem.
    3-1 away win for the super soaraway Saints.

    Jelert is definitely carrying a knock and sounds very doubtful

    Just as he was showing some promise...

    Then I'd swap in Mads as it's the best like for like position wise and this stops needing to use fellows that deep either

    I spent 4 fun years living in Bristol and lived near Rovers so i hope we smash City! But draws are our speciality!
