    Just seen on SSN that wilson is a doubt, so whats our back four going to be? (if wilkos still not fit)

    I reckon Tone will go with:
    Tommy
    Huth Ryan Woody Upson
    Walters Whelan Whitehead Ethers
    Crouch Jones

    If i was Tone i'd go with:

    Tommy
    Shotton Huth Ryan Upson
    Palacios Whitehad
    Jerome Fuller Ethers
    Crouch

    Try something different Tone for the last game, that front 4 would tear notlob apart!

    I have no idea what the team will be. It's the last game of the season and it's at home so he should go for the 3pts and attack. But it is TP of course so caution may be the plan and play not to lose. I remember last season against Wigan and look what happened

    I wouldn't have Upson at LB, looks too slow on the turn, but your idea looks good. I'd have Upson in the middle, amd Huth at fullback (unless Wilko is fit), Whelan instead of Whitehead, and have Matty and Jerome on opposite sides, or have them interchange through the game.
    I think that would help us play for the whole 90 instead of dropping off at the end, bring Jonny on towards the end, his running would be more effective when he's fresh against tired legs.

    I think Fuller will play 90 either way because it will be his last game, so fro me I think it will be;

    Tommy
    Huth, Shawx, Upson, Wilko
    Delap/Walters, Whitehead, Whelan, Ethrington
    Crouch, Fuller

    I also expect us to start strong and fade after 20 minutes when we havent scored. Going behind on 42 minutes to a Davis goal from a set play. Jerome will come on on 70 minutes and score on 82, we will then sit deep and we will get hit on the break where Eagles will feed in Ngog to score on 89 minutes - Bolton winning 2-1 but still going down on Goal difference due to a Lescott own goal giving QPR the point they need to stay up.

    Smithers, you could well be right re Stoke v Bolton but QPR to draw at Man City? I hope not as that would hand the title to the red half of Manchester and that will not do!!

    And Lescott will no doubt be hoping to make the Euros - I would not touch him with a barge pole. I have never rated him
