Good news with Belaid starting.... I think its the right game for his first start. Would prefer Koran in centre midfield but expect Belaid to start in his preferred position

My team would be....

..............................Guzan............. .................
Rosenior..........Chester........Gerrard......... Dawson
Stewart........Evans..................Belaid........ ..Koren
..................McLean...........Fryatt.................

Subs: The Duke, Macca, Nobby, Barmby, Devitt, Simpson
 
mixed reports.. if Koren is fit Belaid won't start surely.. Eurosport say Cairney is fit but you don't want to change much. Wow Garcia the aussie international striker got a mention.. as soon as he's fit NP will be looking for buyers in the summer or a loan move.. oh and Rosenior in for McShame is a no-brainer..

Can Belaid tackle? If Harper was fit I'd play him with Evans in the middle, you can slag me off but against a team like PNE you need some steel..

Scunny weren't a tough team, so Evans & Cairney was fine.

Shame we can't recall Gary Brabin.

Trying not to get to over confident against PNE.... but having watched the last two PNE games (on player).... they are a poor side... I did not see too much a threat from their midfield & I think we should not be worrying 'how tough' they are in the tackle..... we should NOT put out a side to match their standard... it's about how good we are with the ball.
Clearly Belaid's ability is to be proved, but I think Nigel believes he's got a talent there.

Let's see late!
