I’m not sure there’s much point in these team threads.
He selected the team most people wanted against Luton, and they actually performed worse than the team did yesterday.

433 Bursik Smith Wilmott Jags Tymon Allen Powell Baker Brown Campbell Wright Phillips Play our own players! That's a good idea...in theory. Problem is that you've taken wingbacks Smith and Tymon and placed them as fullbacks in a four, when their strength is playing further ahead, 10-15 yards upfield in a 3/5 - the reason we often play 3 in the centre being that neither Smith nor Tymon are good defenders, so the extra man is needed. It has nothing to do with being home or away. My good idea - in theory - is I'm longing for us to play the same team every week, every matchday, barring injuries/suspension. Stop this pointless rotation which is doing nobody any good at all. They may not be full of confidence, the first time they play together, but confidence comes by playing together, and knowing what the player next to you or just behind you will do. Get some automatism into play, that scfc players know what are, but the opponents don't. I think Tymon is OK at left back but Smith is an absolute liability at right back

What the same Fletcher that missed the best chance of the game yesterday? And encourages us to pump long balls towards him which if he gets his head on them it's always given as a foul against him? The one who makes up for his lack of pace by always being offside? I just knew Fletcher wouldn't score when he was through on goal and agree with what you say, except I think Powell missed an easier chance.

The U23's and their manager.
Sorry, still mad after the last one.

I think Tymon is OK at left back but Smith is an absolute liability at right back I strongly disagree about Josh - aand I say that about who is my presentday favourite Stoke player. But it's pathetic to see him caught out defensively so often. He is too easy for an opposition player to nutmeg; it happens every game at least once. Release him completely from defensive duties and play him further upfield, and the quality of his runs and crosses would probably improve too. He might even score more often.

I’m not sure there’s much point in these team threads. Then don't write in them. How difficult is that`?

……………………………..Bursik………………………………… Wilmot…………Moore……………….Jags…………….Tymon …………………….Allen……..…..Baker………………………… ……………………………Sawyers……………………………… Campbell……………….…Powell…………………………DWP Subs: Bonham, THB, Smith, Thompson, Vrancic, Brown, JPB, Maja. This if Moore is fit. Moore was terrible yesterday. He looked an absolute liability. Think he went off because it suddenly dawned on him he’s not good enough to be a professional footballer 😆

Cannot be arsed writing 11 names down. 0-0 or 1-0 Stoke. Shite game. But even we can’t lose to Barnsley. Careful that sounds like a challenge that our lot could aim for

Does anybody know if I can still get tickets? I can click on the block online but it doesn’t bring anything up. Going to try & ring the ticket office in the morning but was thinking maybe it’s something to do with it being called off first time around. Did you get through? My eldest has decided he wants a ticket

Change the hat he picks the team from, perhaps it will bring good luck!

I never want the team to lose, however if it forces a change and by a change I mean not another dinosaur, then it's a small price to pay.

Does anyone know if the Metrodome / Calypso Cove will be open as the designated away bar like it usually is before a Saturday 3pm kick off?

Powell out again, the guy is made of glass, getting beyond a joke.
Selection wise bring back Bursik, start Forrester with Wilmot at CB and put Tezgel on the bench.

Looks like no Powell,Smith and Moore Looks good to me. The only difference I'd like to see is DWP starting. I find it really strange how the manager has just stopped using him. Edit: I meant to quote the next post down, Prestwich's team selection
