O'Hare and Maatsen to get a hat trick each.

Ohare would struggle based on robins comments that he isnt playing

Songs for Saturday

We've got No'Hare

No oh oh, Kelly in the middle

and the George Michael classic - 'Careless Viktor' with those famous lyrics

'I'm never gonna pass again...'

are we going to see o' hare, doubt it, Robins is keeping him fresh for the january transfer window, i mean he tweaked his hamstring, way back in july, he could of broken his leg and been playing now.

So you would rather he plays too soon and injures himself again?

incidentally i see nothing but a Burnley win on Saturday, hope i am wrong though

Maybe you should go and see an optician then

Have they drawn their last 4 having taken the lead in each one?

Same starting XI only possible changes are rose for panzo or walker for godden but it would be mad to make either of them

Imagine a 0-0, 1-0 or 0-1 highly likely

“Vincent Kompany’s Burnley” (cringe) hardly setting the league alight. We should be taking a point at least

Taken over from Wayne Rooney’s Derby County

booked in next week, hopefully that will help.

 

[Saddlebrains]

I still don't understand why its taken so long for a 'tweaked hamstring'

Been 10 weeks ffs

Pick me up a sausage roll while you're in there.

What you thinking?
Robins not playing him cause we’re better off without him?
Ohare refusing to play
Which one?

Or he’s too injured to play so isn’t playing?

I think he's just going with his usual 'I want to be the biggest moaner on the forum so need to moan about something today' approach.

It would be better if the club provided some info on his status

Don't moan as loud as your mum

As Grendel said, more info would have been nice

Literally any other member of the squad we have weekly updates from MR 'Kels is back on the grass it was a hamstring'

'Fankys not far away it was a groin strain'

'Mattys going to be about 3 weeks, felt a small twinge in his calf so being careful'



As with Callum, when he did it 'Were looking at worse case 6-8 weeks'

Ten weeks down the line and we've finally got updates, which tbh they had too as he was back in training

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

It would be better if the club provided some info on his status

Like whether he’s playing or not?

Dont say 6-8 weeks then, manage fans expectations.

If hes back at Cardiff next week thats 11 weeks, hardly a small gap from the original diagnosis is it?

 

[Grendel]

Er no when he’s likely to be back, I’d he in training etc

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Er no when he’s likely to be back, I’d he in training etc

I thought there were pictures of him training. Again what are you thinking?

They are OK at the moment. They trained on Tuesday. Kels got another session into him and is just building up the minutes in his legs and hopefully won’t be too far away. We will just keep working with him until he’s ready. The same goes with Callum.

...

The bigger thing for me is that the pair of them have got to come back strong, so we’re waiting for that to be proven so we can say, ‘yes,’ the hamstrings are stronger than they were previously. That’s the main thing

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

It's complicated.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Only change I'd make would be Waghorn for Godden.

I think Gyo and Godden are our two best strikers individually, but they aren't working as a pair.

Godden is a player who thrives on service (although he has been offside far too often) and Gyo seems determined to just take their entire team on and shoot. So it's a waste of time.

Walker is of a similar vein to Godden, so again would be pointless if he's not being fed chances, Tavares is a possible late punt against tired legs. Waghorn will work hard and drop deep, so could play alongside Palmer if need be. I don't think Allen is effective enough as an AM and has filled in OK for Hamer.

So while I'm happy to largely keep the same starting XI pretty soon MR is going to have to make subs purely to rest players or we're going to get into our glut of fixtures with a knackered team and those games in hand won't turn into points, though hopefully we'll have a rested Hamer and a fit O'hare back, as well as Kelly as cover.

I feel Kane should replace Dabo at some point and maybe let Gyo bully their defence for 65-70 then let Godden/Walker/Tav loose on them. Maybe also need Eccles to play a few minutes to give Sheaf a breather.

The team seems to be playing ok now without COH ,Palmer has started to control games more now so if O'Hare goes in the next window and robins is given some budget then we will have to put up with it.

 

[Nick]

Like a video of him running about to say he's back training?

 

[jordan210]

If we lose. Will be blamed on player fitness and lots of games in a short space.....

I agree with Saddlebrains - it seems like an incredibly long time out for a backheel.

I've just looked at the league table, bottom, played 9 won 1, not good

That's a tough run of games, even the home ones.
I reckon about 5/6 points
