No cover for Haynes. Jeez he could be getting ripped apart here, their right back is quick and their best player!

Remember him from Ricoh he set up goal.

Could be a ploy by keeping the ginger minger out of defence

If it's not 4-3-3 then it's Baylis left and ponti right

---------------Burge----------------
Grimmer--Willis--Mcdonald--Haynes
-----Bayliss--Doyle--Kelly---
---McNulty---Ponticelli----JCH----

Like the selection (assuming we line up 4-3-3).

There is not much point playing Ponti unless he is up front. I would rather McNulty play right but gonna be interesting as to how exactly we do set up. Does seem a little desperate given we've had all season to have a more attacking approach against sides with an ultra negative approach but hopefully this shows why Robins is a manager & I'm not.

Yeah with possibly Doyle on left side of 3. And Kelly in Middle.
Looks good if they can all move as a 3 to left or right. He must have practised this during the week.

What is it when we face Crawley.? Last time he went 3 at the back. With wing backs and we got overun in midfield.

Either he's going for it or we're playing people in the wrong position. Would have thought Stokes would be the better option if going 433.

Thought that myself, backfired that day!

First real chance to change the formation tho for the run in so can see why he’s chose today.

Being left footed I’d say not the first time today
He’s at his best running at defenders on the left, just like the goal at Crewe

Just checking my football app which shows Bayliss on the right and Was just about to start moaning about Bayliss being on the wing again...then saw that JCH is on the left.
I think we’re going for it. Mcnulty just behind ponti and JCH? Or Bayliss just behind the 3 of them, with kelly and Doyle as DMs?

Reverting back to Haynes?! Stokes was decent last week, certainly better than that useless tosser.

Glad Ponticelli given a start after his cameo last week. Huge 90 minutes City, come on!! Win this and we will have one foot in the play offs.

Need a win today if chesterfield don't pull their finger out. 2 points outside playoffs, can't afford to lose

Especially if Swindon win

Bit dramatic, they are 2 points clear yes but have played 2 more.

Nothing decided today.

It’s in our own hands, fuck it up and nobody else to blame.

If we don't win today it's only one game in hand, draw and we are a point behind still. Lose and even worse.

Crawley are already better than most clubs as they leave the tops on the drinks when you buy them.

Yep. Depends on how they line up, but it's pointless having Ponticelli on the flank I would have thought.
