    Have Just seen the 2 City line ups for tonight's game v Cambridge and RVW will be starting for the 2nd NCFC for 60 mins line-up alongside:

    Rudd, E.Bennett, Martin, Miquel, Toffolo, Tettey, O'Neil,Hoolahan, Jacob Murphy, & Grabban

    The First XI (who are also playing 60mins) is:

    Ruddy, Whittaker, R.Bennett, Turner, Thompson, Mulumbu, Odjidja, Dorrans, Johnson, Hooper, Jerome

    Would be nice to see if Alex can get the Wolf back scoring for City again, albeit against a lower league side, but at least it might restore his confidence and hopefully prove some of his doubters wrong if he does score for City tonight.

    Thinking RvW is going to score = Triumph of hope over experience.

    The pinkun live reporting reckons RvW is looking sharp, and also playing slightly deeper of the two strikers.

    Full time, 3-1. Off on tour now, and by the sounds of it Brady might well join us out there.

    Be interesting to see what happens with Wolf. I am off the persuasion if we can't ship him we might as well try and get the best out of him and forget about that season we went down. As long as he puts the effort in mind you.

    It will be interesting to see if he can get his motivation back and I'm hopeful he can and playing in a different formation AN may well be able to get the best out of him. Not sure I see him being more than an 'impact sub' though.

    Cheers for the link Nathan. As I have said previously, not sure what you can draw from these fixtures but nice to see us scoring regularly. I hate JR's pink outfit, what the hell is that?

    I think it's this sort of thing that really endeared himself to the fans the first time round and why there are still a lot of people who want him to do well.

    RVW was failed by the system we used last time round, it was too defensive and we had a team that were too slow indecisive in possession, it was that bad that our top scorer was a midfielder who took set pieces and penalties.

    Neil worked some magic with Bassong I'm sure he can do the same with Van Wolfswinkel.

    Well Rich in this crazy world of marketing you just may be right! Let us hope then that it is successful and the purchasers wear their goods indoors.

    AN has said he has had the same chat he had with RVW as he had with Seb & has told him what happened in the past remains in the past it is now up to him. Let's hope his critics do the same & give him another chance to prove himself under a better manager than last time
