We might have to push G Thomas up front, which might mean bringing Spence in to play on the wing.
Tough. Window is closed, so that's it.
I hope Folivi's very minor injury isn't the same as Stokes' 'just a tight groin.'
Surely DeKE is ahead of Spence. He's been on the bench hasn't he, but I don't think Spence has.
More of a right back though isn't he? Either way, will need to bring someone up from the u23's to cover if we need to deploy Thomas up front.
Nah he means Devon who is an attacker.

spence has just come back from injury has he not. anyway ruben can step upSurely DeKE is ahead of Spence. He's been on the bench hasn't he, but I don't think Spence has.
Hope they haven't got a brother named Dylan!This is why I'm using DiKE and DeKE. You'll all be thanking me I tells ya.
What Jimmy Hill did when he was manager and short of strikers, he took one of his defenders who was good at heading the ball and stuck him up front (Dudley Roberts) and from what I remember he scored a few really good goals (6 in 12 appearances).

Need to sign either Yakubu or Cole or both in time to be in the matchday squad for tomorrow not piss about waiting we can't afford to loseSurely DeKE is ahead of Spence. He's been on the bench hasn't he, but I don't think Spence has.
I remember him started off in a blaze of glory but turned out to be a flash in the pan. The difference between that team and today's was supply chances came from both wings, through the middle too all game be lucky to get a couple of chances now.What Jimmy Hill did when he was manager and short of strikers, he took one of his defenders who was good at heading the ball and stuck him up front (Dudley Roberts) and from what I remember he scored a few really good goals (6 in 12 appearances).
Hope we hear that Beavon is okay for Saturday. No word yet on how bad the injury was.
Thing is, it could be desperate if not, hence the concern. If Beavon and Folivi are both out that leaves us just Tudgay and ........ Err, that's it.
No way Kwame Thomas will be fit and even if we signed Yakubu he wouldn't be fit enough either.
Fingers crossed both Folivi and Beavon are fit. It's a game we need to win and we need strikers who know where the goal is.
your not a cov fan. no cov fan would troll the day after getting to wembley. even i wouldnt do that. too much love for my club and fellow fans to do that.

Paul Warhurst for Sheff Weds did similar back in the day. Ended up as a tough-tackling midfielder iirc. It was a fairly common tactic but seems to have fallen out of fashion.
I remember a desperate Newcastle manager (OK, sorry, they're usually all desperate after a while) putting John Beresford up front simply because he happened to have scored three goals in the three games prior. Of course, he didn't do anything and was back at full back shortly afterwards - just happened to have banged in his three goals of his entire spell at the club in three consecutive games. Then again they had Temouri Ketsbia as their alternative striker so perhaps Beresford was the better option.Very true I don't recall a team lately to do it these days. Read Johnson used to do it a bit but cannot name anyone else

The one who has just gone on loan to Nuneaton?Nah he means Devon who is an attacker.

Ummm because i forgot about him.......Mwahaha - only got that on the second reading. You could add...."or a sister call Dyanne / Dyllis " (the latter is a Welsh!)

I may well have missed it, but why would we play either ahead of Jodi Jones?
Look were we are in the league table that should tell you something.Mwahaha - only got that on the second reading. You could add...."or a sister call Dyanne / Dyllis " (the latter is a Welsh!)

Because Jones is massively over rated and constantly gives the ball away?Mwahaha - only got that on the second reading. You could add...."or a sister call Dyanne / Dyllis " (the latter is a Welsh!)
