    Two games to go after an ultimately disappointing season - however, beat Accrington in our final home fixture on Saturday and we give ourselves a chance of finishing in the top half.

    Parkes is out, so Downes or Woodards to partner Bolger in central defence? Also, I'd like to see Wayne Brown be given a run out.

    And 1-0 to the Gas.

    Sawyer has often moved to CB, so Lee Brown might be brought in at LB.
    Agree about Wayne Brown. I'd like to see him start.
    Of course the result matters but I'd rather see a youngster or two given match time.
    I'll go 2-1.

    Yep, I was thinking that I'd like to see Lee Brown again and see if he can recover some of his early/mid season form.

    Do you think Sawyer will stay or go in the summer?

    Someone told me today that Sawyer and W Brown WANT to stay, but what MM thinks
    is another thing.
    Does he want to keep one of the highest paid players as a squad player? If I had to
    say, I think he'll go.

    I think you're right unless MM really sees something in him, which I don't think he does. Having said that, he is versatile and experienced which is what we'll need if we get Bolger and Parkes back next season.

    I don't think we'll have the monumental clearout that signalled the start of the ****le era, but we certainly need to lose four or five and get a similar number in.

    Attacking midfielder Jan Klukowski from Forest Green - 17 goals from midfield this season - I've seen him play a couple of times and definitely worth a look.

    By the way 49er, have you seen - Ollie's back in the blue and white quarters in the summer - I'll have to pop down and cheer him on!

    You mention FGR...haven't they done well this season!
    Yes, I'll be going down to that charity match.
    I was thinking today...I assume there'll be no segregation. With 3,000
    expected and Ollie playing I hope there's no bother.

    FGR have done really well after a mdeiocre start - I see them challenging for promotion - their chairman has some serious money and is putting it into the club.

    I'll be at the Ollie game - I doubt there'll be any bother. There's also a Gary Neville XI playing at FGR including David Ginola sometime in July!

    I'm going for a draw 1-1 with Harrold to score for us and Bolger with an own goal. :shocked:
