2-1 cov, onwards and upwards.
but more than anything, i would like players in correct positions and us attacking and being on the front foot for a change, as though we are at home!!

I just think signs of positivity and going forward would be a nice change!

I would like to see....
RCC
Willis Turnbull Haynes
G Thomas Jones Stevenson Reid
Lameiras
Beavon K Thomas
I like the attacking intent of the team but Haynes in a back 3 with someone as lightweight as Jones ahead of him would be an absolute disaster up against a team like Bradford.

Play as many players who have got a contract beyond the summer as possible, these are what he'll have to work with (or not).

Most definitely do NOT play Clarke or Foley.

You know, I have a sneaky feeling that Clarke might just play really well under Mark Robins.

He constantly seems unfit and puffing and panting when I've watched him.

We should call him Vlad the Inhaler.
Hahahahaha that really tickled me.

Clarke played well Satdee, from what Ive seen of him he's had 2 poor games tbh, and the rest he's been pretty solid.

Better performance to surprise everyone but they are not a bad side and I'm not expecting too much but a draw looks likely. if we win convincingly with the likes of Biggi, Stevenson, Jones in the side it might be fun to watch if we can get those 8 wins MR talked about. Conventional wisdom tells me not to be so stupid.

post your thoughts blah blah

i would go with

=========rcc===========
dke==clarke==turnbul==haynes
=====reilly==stevenson=====
jones===g thomas=====reid
=======k thomas=========

with lameries and beavon possibly for the thomases at some point.

looking forward to this one. robins an advocate of passing football, will be interesting to see how much of that is implemented after a week of training.

You know what, I have a funny feeling about this one - can see us nicking it 2-0.

Is Stokes still not fit?

If not I'd play:

RCC
DKE Willis Turnbull Haynes (or Stokes)
Bigi Reilly
G Thomas Stevenson K Thomas
Beavon

S: Burge, Clarke, Rawson, Foley, Jones, Lamerias, Vernham

I think they're all fit and still play for us lol.

Stick by my 5-0 prediction. Stevenson, G Thomas x 2, K Thomas, Beavon

I am convinced Beavon will play and will probably be one of the first names on the team sheet too.

Reckon Robins will plump for Willis as well.

RCC (fingers crossed)

DKE Willis Clarke Turnbull (but hopefully Stokes)

G Thomas Reilly Stevenson Jones

Beavon

K Thomas
