Think Rudoni might start. I sense Lampard keen to get him back in. Only concern is Simms and lack of cover, he gets a knock early in the game and what options do we have, play a false 9? That would have to be Rudoni I guess, but if he's cooked after 70 minutes, it leaves us with very few options.

We would just park the bus and defend the 6-0

Bobby Thomas and I’m not even joking. He’s a reverse Dublin waiting to happen I’m telling you.

I’ve been saying that since he signed.

Must win.

Lets not underestimate Charlton.
I hope they still have injury problems at the back which have coincided with their two game collapse. Think Charlton will be fired up after two big losses and a big travelling backing.
Don't think Rudi will be ready for a full game yet and if Tatsu has to go through concussion protocols, we will be light up front.
Coming from L1, they are used to big centre forwards so may cope better with Sims than Middlesborough. Hoping Simms will be good for three games in a week.
Ex Luton manager will probably try to make it a scrap. We can't afford getting yellow cards and a suspension for Ipswich

KKH did well last night when he came on in place if Tats. Tats being fit would be the better option, but if not, im not overly concerned.
What concerns me more is both BTA and Wright being injured with no cover for LW

You know there are differences between muscle pulls and strains?

He was hobbling. Frank said his hamstring was tight but expects the worst.

19 games
Two to go
Nice the ref decided to just not bother with them last night

He'd had 50 yellows previously. Someone had obviously had a word to be more lenient. Hackney and Eccles should have gone in the book.

Do we know if there’s a fan zone for Saturday?

Apologies if it’s already in the thread, not had a chance to read it today.

This is a win all day long right? Expect the unexpected when you least expect it!
But seriously, we should be nailed on here. I hope FL does not get lulled into too many changes for the sake of it.
Rudoni starts for me with Asante injured. Possibly keysler-Haden for Milan to have a break. But again is that changing for the sake of it? Milan is a vital cog with Sako and his long throws are an absolute weapon. If we are leading handsomely after 60 minutes, then I expect all 5 subs to get minutes.
