Hoping they don't go route one today.

The wind is going to cause a lot of problems if they do.

Thomas and Kitching aren't exactly overly steady when faced with consistent long balls at the best of times.

There's nothing like trying to keep an eye on more than 1 kid at a time in a place like that for forgetting everything else

To be fair after watching Wrexham try the same tactic last night is hoofing balls into a gale that good a tactic? Poor Fifer Moore looked lost.

On the right.

I'd like us to keep to a back 4 at home, but can understand a back 5 with the situation at CM

A Grimes and Allen midfield 2 would get seriously over ran

Well if Eccles and Torp are out the only other option is playing Andrews

Teams are starting to use it more even in the premier league to beat the high press.
it can easily take 6 players out of the game with one long ball.
It wont be long before everyone reverts to 1980’s wimbledon especially id pep does it.

Oh right yeah.

Well probably not, especially as Moore has the mobility of a JCB.

Could be quite fluid with that 4. Glad we've not gone to a back 5. Torp available off the bench should we need it.

Maybe Eccles? Might have travelled hoping he'd make it.

Thought Eccles would more likely be in squad that Torp. Strange looking team, someone going to be out of place in the 10. That said, the quality on the pitch should see off Wednesday.

Least Torp has made the bench. Eccles is made of paper mache
