That’s true. The side doesn’t look great, on paper I’d make Preston favourites after seeing their side.
Clearly the club aren't arsed about a cup run. We are playing opposition in the same league and there is a full change of starting lineup. Not saying it's a bad thing, I'd rather this tbh. But you wouldn't change all 11 players if you were 100% committed to winning the game. I wouldn't be shocked if a few gave a good showing tonight.
Wish I seen those line ups before I put us in me Acca! Not arsed about the cup whatsoever good chance for some of the fringe players to show what they’re about
Hjelde has a clean slate for me, the same way Mundle does. Not going to judge any player on how they performed second half of last season
All about individual performances tonight for me, almost feels like a friendly. Think our first 11 is pretty settled outside of the striker so Rusyn has to know this is a huge opportunity for him. Perform tonight and he'll probably be starting on Sunday.
As folk have mentioned its a free hit tonight, hoping a few put in performances that give RLB some headaches over the next few days Tough game against an almost full strength Preston team I do worry about our back 4 up against their forwards Looking forward to seeing how Mundle does as been really impressed with him in preseason
Interesting line up, hope its not a sign of a one trick pony, but a real chance for a few to show their paces, albeit within the "system". Out of interest I would like to see Ben Crompton and Tommy Watson get 45 minutes.
