    Personally I would play AOB up front with Wyke for him to do his donkey work and run Peterborough's back line ragged. Who he would come on for is an altogether different question!

    the Stewart lad is getting stronger ever game i realise now you have to give them time to bed in Humble pie **** sandwich eaten, Aloth Wykes gets on the end of a few he doesn't get enough individual goals, I would have Ross as first choice and Charlie as an impact sub

    might not be a popular choice but for this game with that pitch i would drop gooch, not that he has done owt wrong just i do not think the pitch will help him at all and may well slow him down and he will spend best part of the game trying to adjust...AOB is far better suited and capable with a more long ball type game.

    Or to throw the cat amongst the pigeons - drop Mclaughlin to the bench and Gooch right back after today's game?

    apparently he did well, but from the commentary he seemed to be getting up the pitch and that could cost us against posh i feel, but it's heaven to even be having such discussions...does not seem too long ago we were struggling to think of a 'best eleven' most match days.

    It was a bit of a surprise that he was left out today after his last performance mate. Probably intentional by LJ, as he wanted him fresh for the Peterborough game.
    I think Winchester could return on Monday too.

    All in all, the Manager's rotation of players for certain games and introductions from the bench have worked a treat.

    I don't fancy Gooch at RB. RWB would suit him though. I think our best setup will be three CBs with Hume at LWB and maybe Gooch at RWB.

    Haven’t got to contribute everyday, and when I do contribute I’m very supportive of the players and the football club.

    As for everything else you said....

    Yawn.
