Same 4231 formation, hopefully.
Palmer in if Wright is out, Kitching in for Binks, who could justifiably be a little disappointed, as could Lati.

Collins
MVE, Thomas, Kitching, Bidwell
Sheaf, Eccles
Saka, COH, Palmer
Simms

Heart wants to say 2-0, head is saying high scoring draw, 2-2

I think Godden should play.

He's obviously fired up at the moment. Had a shit spell until Oxford and seems to be teying to prove a point now. I would throw him in.

Weird that Wright was in one of the training pics earlier this week if he’s out for 4 weeks? Unless he’s further aggravated it in training? This is him on the right of screen only 2 days ago.

@Saddlebrains appreciate you’re often right about these things but you also said a week or 2 ago that you source had gone dry so how you now getting this info?

Had a look but it doesn't open until 9 unfortunately. Then they're showing the Sunderland game. Cheers for the shout but I think I'll stay well clear! Banter Bar in Brooklyn looks like a reasonable shout at the moment.

It's on ESPN+ here in the US. Most bars with a few TVs should be able to put it on, if you ask. Assuming they are open that early.

Thanks mate. Had a decent recommendation in the off topic and found a place called football factory bar that's showing it Saturday morning. I'll be there bright and early!

Even if he gets this wrong he's clearly ITK

I think we will be without Hadji for this game & at least a couple more unfortunately, but as we have done in the past , we will overcome his loss .
Lats in please for Eccles , as I think he offers so much more & let’s hope Palmer doesn’t switch off, against better opposition this week.
2 - 1 to the mighty Skyblues
The March is on !!!!

Lati has been decent at centre mid despite it not appearing to be his natural position, but I don’t believe for a minute he “offers more” than Eccles.

Earlier in the season (when we weren't doing so good) Robins singled out MVE and Eccles
He said MVE needed to go past his man more , that's what he bought him for and Eccles needed to pass forward more
Since then there's been a marked improvement in both of them
I'd even go as far to say that in most games Eccles has been better than Sheaf
I just don't get the need to constantly put the kid down

Eccles is solid but slows the game down when we're on the break with a sideways or back pass. Something we can't afford on Saturday..Lati please!!

Do you actually watch the games ?
Eccles is playing loads of forward passes now and Lati as much as I like him is more like what you're describing above

Lati isn't exactly Glenn Hoddle with his passing range! Eccles over him every time despite the lazy throwaway comments about his passing

Stress feee game for me. No expectations and we have points in the bag to cope with a loss. Also don’t have any interest in Leicester, anymore than I do in Watford or Sheffield Wednesday. Never been there never known a Leicester fan so they might as well be at the other end of the country for all I care. Kick back and enjoy the game

Palmer has been really good recently. I thought an AM was a must buy in the summer but if we keep O'Hare and this version of Palmer fit, I'm ok with it.
