Robins has pretty much said he has ability but he's not showing him enough to get game time

I'd go 5-3-1-1 Rose at CB, Burroughs RWB. Doyle in the middle with Hamer and Eccles with JWE at AM. Not impressed with JWE but I do think he looks like he could pull off something out the blue a la Tavares v Preston at home. I wouldn't bother with Godden or Walker

There's only one thing that will open the door for Maguire, and that's impressing Robins in training.

I like the idea of Doyle in the middle. Not one for playing players out of position but desperate, desperate measures.

Would snap your hand off for 6 points from the next 4 games

I thought he did very well for the Evans chance. Great body shape and positioning.

Which is just another example of how thin our squad is because if that's the case, and it sounds plausible, surely he shouldn't be on the bench?

I'd keep Burroughs wing back. I prefer Brightons suggestion of moving Doyle into midfield. It does raise more questions about Dabo that he couldnt get on in his preferred position for even half an hour.

Can he play attacking midfielder?

Walker got involved but he didnt do much of note. Godden didn't do anything. That's hy I said in another post I'd start JWE over the pair of them and play Vik up top on his own if Allen's not fit but we really are scraping the barrel.

Exactly, even Robins eluded to it when we signed them. It's not their fault, they should probably be on loan in L1 or 2. Having said that, if Allen is out, I'd start JWE Saturday and play Vik up top on his own.

I'll be amazed if Burroughs doesn't start Saturday. If Cuffy starts ahead of him then he must be on some sort of City pay if he doesn't play deal.

Probably the right result. Hope to fuck at least 1 of Allen or Palmer are fit for Saturday

Fucks sake Bidwell

Think it's a stamina/fitness thing

Whoever he puts there from that bench would be an experiment!

I think he'll certainly be getting that from Eccles in due course though his inexperience shows at the moment. To be fair, their midfield looks decent so he's got his work cut out this evening.

He's lost the ball in dangerous positions a couple of times. Though to be fair, Sheaf does a couple of times per gameas well.

Thought Wilson did very well with his positioning for the Evans chance. I've mentioned it before but I don't think he gets enough credit for it.

Screech from saved by the Bell in the Preston end
