    I know it's early with a match tonight bot looking ahead would you save anyone for the vital West Ham game or play a full strength team against Burnley?

    Full strength v Burnley - no brainer there's 3 points up for grabs, which are a must get.

    Never underestimate or insult the opposition...Adkins would never do that. A win over Burnley is worth the same number of points as the West Ham game...remembering that being 2nd to WH is still promotion. Aim to win every game...as you never know what future holds.

    Championship doesn't work like that - you should know this by now!

    It would be a mistake to under estimate any team in this league, We need to field the strongest side possible what ever team in the league we play.

    The Burnley game is almost more important, because it has been the decline in our home form that has really set us back. Getting points off of top teams away is nice; getting all three at home against teams mid-table and below is absolutely crucial.

    My thoughts exactly! Doncaster and Bristol City have both taken points off us this season. Doesn't mean for a second that every team above them will do so as well!

    Have a look at Burnley's away form this season and then see if we should rest some players.

    Good 3 points we've got to get then taking no chances.
