    The list of those missing through injury is long:

    Clarke, Woodards, Brunt, Gill, Harrold, Broghammer, Kenneth, Clucas, Paterson......

    But which of them would walk straight back into the team, and who would

    be sitting on the bench?

    I can't see the back 5 being changed, and JJ and Norburn, for the moment,

    are probably first choice CM pairing. So that's Clarke, Woodards, Gill, Kenneth,

    Clucas and Paterson having to fight their way back in.

    Broghammer may not get straight back in ahead of Harrison, and Richards

    has rediscovered his goalscoring touch.

    So although we make a lot of having a long injury list I reckon the only ones

    we are really missing are Brunt and Harrold, one of whom I'd put straight

    back in, probably for Clarkson.

    Harrold would go straight back in as long as he's 100% the rest would depend on the other players performances

    To be fair Richards is a bench player, I realise he has scored 2 in 2 but Brog is a midfielder where as Richards is defo a forward.

    Harrold would walk right back in the starting 11 given the way we are set up to play formation and tactics(hit on the break),along Broghammer.

    Brunty would replace Clarkson suggest that they would alternate from the bench.

    When Clucas and Gill are fit it would between Norburn and these two supporting JJ.However Clucas will be out for best part of the season unless he recovers really quickly and Gill Hmm not done enough to warrant a starting berth.

    i be interested in seeing gill and o'toole together. i like norburn but clucas was fantastic along side o'toole so i say were missing clucas in the middle. were missing brunts non stop running but harrold for me we are missing the most which is annoying as he attracts route 1 football.

    I'd like to see Gill and JJOT together too. I think Gill's experience would free up John to rampage forward a bit more.

    Brunt and Harrold are needed without a doubt. However, I'd actually quite like to see Harrold and Clarkson up front. Clarky is wasted in midfield - between Harrold and him they have a lot of guile and experience; with some pace on the wings I reckon that they could cause damage at this level.

    No wonder we ain't got any funds left. What with being able to field two teams and still have left overs

    I dont think our 2nd team that I selected is that bad and could compete to a certain level in our league. Just need all our players back all fit!

    Brunt, Harrold, Clucas, Broghammer and Woodards...

    They all make a difference.
