This is what I would play

Amos

Rosenoir Bruce McShane Dawson

Stewart McKenna Cairney Quinn

McLean Proschwitz
 
I'd probably go with the same. It's a bit worrying that we don't have another winger apart from Quinn, as I'd have liked to have seen him rested. Nevertheless, that team should be more than capable of beating Orient at home.
 
Since SB stated he's resting Aluko & Koren and strongly hinted at Dawson & McKenna to be given a run out, I'd say it will be something like this..

Jakupovic

Rosenior Cooper Bruce Hobbs Dawson

McKenna Cairney Quinn

Proschwitz Simpson
 
oops just posted mine at the same time!! merge pls Mr Mod?

I thought about Stewart, but he hasn't played much.. needs to be shop-windowed though. if there's a deal in the pipeline for Mclean he won't play, forgot abt Amos..
 
Mclean wont play if there is really interest from milwall

We are in a promotion push and I would not play anyone who is in contention for a starting spot with the exceptions of bruce, cairney, mcshane and proschwitz as all of them probably could use some games under their belts for a variety of reasons.

I dont know our reserve side but I think I got their positions correct.

Amos

Topliss Bruce McShane Dawson

Stewart McKenna Cairney Margetts

Clarkson Proschwitz
 
You're clearly not familiar with how we treat our youngsters, ellewoods. Margetts and Topliss won't play for us against Orient. They'll be loaned out to League Two or Conference sides when they're in their twenties, and then eventually released having never played a minute for us.

Simpson and Prossy both need a goal.

Probably true but there is no way at all I would put simpson, rosenior, jako, quinn etc on that pitch. Sure nothing may go wrong but an injury to any of them could put us in a world of hurt.

You forgot the bit about billy Russell saying this is the best crop of youngsters we've had for years.......then releasing them.
 
Think we should stick with the 3-5-2 formation so the likes of Proschwitz, Cairney and Simpson can get more experience in it so:

Amos
Cooper McShane Bruce
Rosenior Cairney Oli McKenna Dawson/East
Proshwitz Simpson

I know it doesn't suit people like Dawson and Rosenior but still should be enough to win!

I agree we would ideally play that system but there isn't an appropriate LWB. Unless East could play right side and Rosey plays on the left.
 
It'd be nice for Bruce to use some of the returning loanee's to see if they've made any progress.

I'd maybe go with Either:

-----------------Amos---------------
-------McShane---Bruce---Cooper-------
East--Mckenna--Oli--Cairney---Rosenior
------------Simpson---Proschwitz-----------

Or:

----------------Amos---------------
Rosenior--McShane--Bruce--Dawson
-----McKenna---Oli----Cairney-------
----Emerton--Proschwitz--Simpson---

edit:just seen Townsend suspended.
