Would take a point.
I think I'd put Hamer on the bench as a show that his discipline is not acceptable.
If brought back in I'd replace Allen and get him a bit higher up the pitch, leaving Sheaf and Eccles to cover, though could also bring Palmer and go one up top.

Berge, Bogle and Foderingham missing for them, we can definitely get something out of this and hope yesterdays result breeds confidence.
1-0 City - Godden

As on the other thread. Lack of goals across the pitch is a concern for me still. We'll probably have to outscore them rather than do our 1-0 special. Not sure we're up to that.
I’d probably go the same team with Hamer on the bench - I’d definitely get Waghorn involved at some point too - he was very good yesterday.
Last season we picked them off on the counter again and again. Could probably do the same this time but will need to be much more clinical than we have been so far.
Only thing is it’s a lot easier to attack on the counter with COH on your side!
Robin's will not drop Eccles after yesterday's performance and Hamer will be on the bench.
I feel like we're a relatively solid side now , I fancy us to win this 1-0
Play your best players against the best teams, for me Hamer would start, we’re playing well but still missing a little in our forward play.
No reason why we can't beat this lot. Hamer surely comes straight in? He has played in the under 21's to keep in form. Eccles played well but not exceptional and has earned his place on the bench. At home I'd like to see Palmer as he has done nothing wrong and this is a different game at home. Kelly though I expect to see on the bench. Just think we need extra in midfield so should we sacrifice Godden? - probably not at the start.
It seems like a simple decision to me. If MR thinks Eccles is fit enough, he’ll start him because Eccles earned his place. If MR thinks he doesn’t have two starts in him given the short turnaround, he may prefer to bring Hamer back in, along with Rose keeping his place ahead of Doyle.
The good news is MR has options now.. and will have more when O’Hare and Kelly come back.

My eyes glaze over for a split second everytime these are posted - does anybody even look at them?
I look. But I think I’d know my way around a telephone exchange box sooner than I could comprehend one of these graphs.

I cannot stand that lot and hope we absolutely thump them, in all my years watching football the most arrogant fanbase with the biggest chip on their shoulder I’ve ever seen

Very brave-not sure Wilson is up to playing up front on his own, though.
It would be crazy not to play Hamer, unless he was unfit. They pay him high wages to play, and he's easily one of the best quality players at the club. Can't drop him to avoid red cards, he's got to avoid that himself through better discipline.
Hamer doesn’t deserve a place in my opinion. Eccles was magnificent on Saturday and should be picked on merit until he doesn’t warrant picking.
We pay Hamer high wages not to be consistently suspended. Quality or not he is a liability.
