Would you start the same 11 as last night?

Yes. The only change I would consider is Reid for Shipley.

Reid is definitely out of favour so that won't happen

I would keep Burge then pad the rest of the team with Gary Breens. McNumpty paperwork merits a place on the bench (in case we get a pen!)

Agreed, and I like Biamou but think JCH will be a bigger pain in the ass for their defence. Throw biamou in after 60-70 mins

As I put on another thread I’d consider a front three of McNulty, Biamou and JCH tho that means dropping Shipley and a possibly tweak in formation and not leaving much to come off the bench only Ponticelli.

Not overly convinced we should change too much in the formation again tho at this stage tho would a 433 be that bad a idea?

Be interesting to play on the front foot if the quick, tricky Forte has done his hamstring and occupy the Notts county full backs restricting them to lumping long for Davies to mop up.

Interesting thought tho.

Same team but the first half rather than the second half one. If jch starts, which would be no bad thing, can we have the one that came on last night and not the falling over one

Is Willis injured ? ... He was on the bench and Hyam took his place ... but as he was on the bench ... surprised me he didn't start ?

I'm sure I.saw Willis sprinting up and down the touch line. He looked pretty quick

Thanks Otis, well I'd have him back in again for next Friday then as an exchange for Hyam ... not that he played badly yesterday to be fair ... key with yesterday was the stats 61% possession and only 1 shot on target ... that's got to improve Friday, so maybes 3 up front .. JCH, McNulty and Ponti ?

For no other reason than I have a gut feeling this is gonna end in penalties, I would start the same team & leave potential penalty takers like JCH & Ponti to come on to help win the shoot out.

And then Ponticelli misses the decisive kick and his career nose dives

Totally agree.
I thought that would be the case last night to be honest. Biamou always looks hungrier when coming off the bench

I’d consider starting JCH myself, thought he looked a threat carrying the ball and when he wanted to stay upright, he did.

That’s the only change I’d make. I think playing 4-3-3 messes with our shape too much. It’ll most likely put McNulty on the wing, which limits our best player. IF we were to do it, I’d have McNulty in a central position with JCH and Biamou wider, direct balls against their full backs might work. However, I still think it messes with the shape too much. Also, JP is not a wide player, so he’s just getting shoehorned on the wing in the vague hope a chance will fall to him...

If we are going to get beat at Notts County I would like it to be by "dying on our shield" I don't wont us to be defensive, timid, shot shy.
I want edge of our seat football, on the front foot, peppering their goal with shots and putting them to the sword.
And I believe that is the way to beat Notts County at their ground. Give them a war of attrition and they are pigs in shit.

Ponticelli might not be the best footballer we have, but is far and away the best finisher in the club. I don't think he would be phased in the slightest at taking a penalty, or the possibility & repercussions of missing one. Take a look at his penalty in the shoot out at Walsall earlier this season, we would be mad not to use him if it does come down to penalties because of some misguided fear about the effect on his future career.

I would put money on Ponticelli not missing his penalty if it came to it.

Couldn't we play Andreu & Jones instead of Doyle & Bayliss? They're not fit but it wouldn't matter in that team

Yes same team. As long as Shipley leaves the dead balls to Kelly.

Not a chance in he'll Reid will start.
