Ware, 30 yard screamer. 1-0
team. formation 5-3-2 because it keeps us tight at the back.
Oldest keeper available
Oldest non-winger/wing back available (e.g.) Anyone but Smith, Jags, expensive loanee, Player who guarantees win % of 22% or less, only bloke with a left foot
Baker, Allen, No.10 as an inside right/expensive loanee. (alternative, no 8 as an inside left, Baker, Allen)
worst combo of available strikers that includes expensive loanee to play to oppositions strengths (they have non by the way)
Subs - all the old ones who didn't make the first 11, token U23, 2nd oldest keeper available

Surely to goodness they have to go for it today! A win will only do so I would play Sawyers in front of Allen and Baker in midfield.

So excited about this one.
Playing a fucking shit team.
Not playing our best young players anymore.
Playing a bunch of loans and players who will be leaving.
Nothing to play for
Who cares

We should really win today at a canter, its almost inconceivable that we won't. Even MON said they 'play the game in the right way' which is manager speak for they are absolutely rubbish !!

Don't know what to expect today I just hope we don't approach this game cautiously and invite pressure onto ourselves and give Peterborough any confidence we'll be the laughing stock of the championship this weekend if we lose no disrespect to Peterborough.

The match deciding the worst team in the division approaches. Really? What about the other 8 teams below us? Are they just automatically better than us because they’re not Stoke?

Given it would take an equally amazing miracle for us to go up or down this year, our focus has to be on development of the core for next season. I think we should blood the youngsters but give them massive leeway in that the result is not critical but their ability to play with commitment and passion is an absolute must.
Bursik Smith Wilmot Jagielka Tymon Vrancic Powell Baker Campbell Tezgel Wright-Phillips
Ably supported by the usual suspects from the bench.

Nothing to play for Who cares Keep saying it but I fucking hate that we’ve ballsed the season up so badly that it was dead with 14/15 games to play. I’ve got a season ticket but it almost feels pointless going to the remaining matches. What joy is there going to be? Watching a bunch of ageing blokes with not long left on their contracts, plus a load of loanees just ambling along to the end of the season.

Difference being that a few days ago this message board was awash with folks touting that result as irrefutable evidence that we need a new manager. Yes, we’ve disappointed this year, but we have certainly come a long long way from when he took over. Anyway, let’s focus on today’s game and a resounding victory, please!
