I wonder what team Stoke will put out? How seriously will they be taking the competition? Likewise, I wonder what we will be doing? Rest some players? I might come back when I see the starting line up!

2-1 :D :D :D

I'd like DA to use this game to try a new line up with both Cole and Obika starting from the off.

Also a chance to see Smith in goals and to give Conney a run out alongside the 3 newbies in midfield playing together.

Gibson must surely take preference over Melbourne for this one as well as going forward into the next league fixtures.

BUT knowing DA's reluctance to go for an attacking line up it could be 'as you are were'.....which for me is poor... :(

I agree. "as you are were" is very poor, even for you.

No way will we play a strong side here - staying up
is too important.

Morecambe 0 - Stoke City 2.

DA said it will be from the same 18 as Saturday. So don’t expect Ryan Mc and Cooney to be involved, shame, as from what I’ve seen they are both better than Love!! :D

Can't see DA dropping Team Captain Love despite Cooney being far better....

On t' tother side I don't have much confidence in Melbourne either who for me was terrible v Shrewsbury.

Rest some players? They've only played two games! Derek might leave some out to prevent injuries or to try a different format but I hardly think they need a rest this early in the season. If they do we haven't got much chance of staying up!

Just two games into the new season and already we've had three shots on target!
Maybe we'll score if we have another in this game.
Although I might be getting a little optimistic - it's unlikely Derek will risk such an attacking formation again.
Even so I'll go for a 1-3 loss for this one.

May as well treat this as a bit of a free hit. Don't necessarily need to rest players but a chance to give a few a start and let Derek tweak tactics/formation a bit if he fancies.

I fancy Smith to come in and maybe move Gibson to left back. Would also like to see Cooney or McLaughlin come in at right back but as mentioned above can't see him dropping Love. May as well shake things up in attack a bit, can see Watts playing from the start this time.

I wouldn’t make too many changes for this game (I don’t think we have enough players to field a ‘second XI’ anyway).

We should use this as a chance to gel the team and try to work on our attacking play in a game where we have nothing to lose.

I think we'll lose 1-2 unfortunately. Hopefully we'll look good though!

Not that I think we're at this level of desperate just yet but scoring a goal would be a nice treat.

Us 0 them 2.

From what I've seen of the Championship so far this season it seems stronger than ever. Big ask this whilst we are still in a period of transition. Hope I'm wrong but for the time being it all seems very difficult.

UTS!
