Lockyer and Phillips are the only two players to start every league game so far this season. What happened to Ben Amos, is he injured? He was substitute 'keeper until 2 games ago, now Maynard-Brewer is on the bench.
In the case of Hemed I thought I detected less than the 100% commitment demanded by Lee Bowyer. Some put it down to lack of fitness, but I did wonder if it was a bit more. We'll see. A fully fit and fired up Hemed would be great.
From afar, I don't know what's happened with Amos, but it would be an odd decision to drop Phillips right now.
@Beware of the Virus Are you aware of a (belated) match report from @Clb74 , or is he still in a Sandwell police cell ?
Clb is alive and well. Not as cold as i thought it would be up there. Turkish messi had what i thought was his best game for us. F@ck knows how we got a penalty for the point i don't know. If someone said wed have 8 points after our last 6 games youd of bitten their hand off. Get used to the old bill telling you what to do as i have visions now of turning up to stations and the old bill waiting for us
