For 4 games you’d tell Wilson to immediately lay it off to a defender or Grimes, or to go long. Keep it simple and minimise the chance of an error.Seen quite a few mentions about how Collins is in the team because of his passing and it suits our game plan more. So I had a look at the numbers...
Wilson kicks it long 45% of the time compared to Collins 38%. Given they both average 28 passes per game that means Wilson makes two long kicks per game more.
Of those long kicks, Collins completes 5 per game and Wilson 3 per game.
They have both completed 100% of short passes. Collins averages 98% for medium length passes and Wilson is 97%.
So are we really picking the worst shot stopper in the league because he makes two more long passes per game?
Are these stats for Ben Wilson playing with a back four?They have both completed 100% of short passes. Collins averages 98% for medium length passes and Wilson is 97%.
Or put another way, “Change the team’s entire tactical setup for the most important four games of the season so you can incorporate your third choice keeper”For 4 games you’d tell Wilson to immediately lay it off to a defender or Grimes, or to go long.

The first choice is injured and the second choice has lost his mind. Needs mustOr put another way, “Change the team’s entire tactical setup for the most important four games of the season so you can incorporate your third choice keeper”
Ffs I just hope Collins doesn't read the stuff on this forum.
What little confidence he might have left will be totally destroyed.

We're going to turn it on tomorrow and win convincingly.
I agree. I maintain Fortress CBS will see us through; actually pretty excited for tomorrow!We're going to turn it on tomorrow and win convincingly.
Is this just speculation or do you know 100%?Thomas and Milan are both out
He's only third choice by Frank Lampard and a handful of others. Most wonder how that can be ?Or put another way, “Change the team’s entire tactical setup for the most important four games of the season so you can incorporate your third choice keeper”
Early goal would be huge with that crowd! League record attendance?

Potential record full-stop. 31,407 is the record v Chelsea.Early goal would be huge with that crowd! League record attendance?
Agree Bidwell has been poor this season.For all the Collins talk, i actually have major concerns about Bidwell if he's up against any kind of pace. He's been genuinely hopeless recently, the Derby performance was legit one of the worst performances i've ever seen from an individual at this club.
SameGot a really bad feeling about this game
Yup, same here.For all the Collins talk, i actually have major concerns about Bidwell if he's up against any kind of pace. He's been genuinely hopeless recently, the Derby performance was legit one of the worst performances i've ever seen from an individual at this club.

Snap.31,400 would take the average for the season to over 27,800, the highest since 69/70.
Almost exactly 3 times higher than our average attendance 7 years ago.
Are Keepers allowed footstools? Im not sure there are any rules against it?Shame JDS is suspended. I would stick him in there.
And then to another full house against The Red and White stripes.It’s exciting though ain’t it! I think we all knew it was gonna come down to the final day. I seem to remember folks on here predicting it more or less at the start of the season.
Whatever happens it’ll be on we remember for a long time.
My prediction is we’ll win 1-0. Brad Collins to score from a goal kick in the 93rd minute.
That’d be great too.And then to another full house against The Red and White stripes.
Snap.
Should be up to 27800 average attendance by the end of the season .

Is it not for the TV cameras?Would have broken the record against Chelsea if they gave Boro the full 3000. Still can't understand why we removed 200 seats from them.
