Who plays with sheaf then ? Do we go with sheaf and Allen ? Any word yet on how long Kelly is out for ?

Surely Hamer yellow can be appealed ? That was never a foul

It will be either Shipley or Allen, with Pask as an outsider.

Telling you now we will lose Saturday and be dragged right back into the scrap.

A midfield containing Sheaf Allen/ Shipley lacks any creativity and also any defensive tackling.

We're still in a scrap, no one has suggested otherwise. We will be all season

With Hamer and Kelly out he may be forced to play 2 up top. I think the early season losses have scared robins from attacking.

You obviously don't watch the game much as Sheaf makes plenty of tackles

We're going to have to go 2 up front.

I tend to agree with a lot of your match thread analysis but we will have to beg to differ. I dont see sheaf being able to play the CDM role very effectively. Specially when hes going to have one of Allen or Shipley next to him

I think you have a point.

A big part of the reason we conceded so many goals was about us getting up to speed I think. The defensive approach was then the right idea, but I'm seeing games now where I think we could get more out of them.

We are going to miss Hamer. Will feel like losing 2 players.

But on the positive he will get a rest.

Is he out for one or two games? Robins said two on the radio on Saturday but I can't recall that ever being a thing

Also when playing 2 up top...we have started to faff about alot less at the back.

This is a problem without our two best CM players. We may have to play long with two up front. However, I‘m very worried about who will play alongside Sheaf.
Could MR use Allen or could he surprise us with Pask or Decosta?

It should be 2 up top. Give walker and biamou an actual chance to play off eachother.

Although we will miss Hamer MR will adapt our game to suit. a combination of Allen, Sheaf, Shipley, Giles, O’Hare, and there’s Lobello, backed up by our strong defence. We’ll be okay.

Allen i guess as he works harder than Shipley

But think our unbeaten run comes to an end vs pulis

Although on other hand maybe due to hoof ball it doesn't matter who we have in middle lol

Pulls teams tend to have eleven players over 6 foot tall. Therefore, we need to be ready for a physical aerial bombardment

Can we do a Norwich now and blame any defeat on our injuries ?

Ah I see, of course. Thought the 5 yellow’s would be looked at independently. Cheers
