Had a little look at the WBA game and on their forum, they don’t seem too happy at the moment. No one is bidding on Piroe either. Might be a good time to play them. Still it’s Swansea so we won’t beat them.

Going 2-2 (Simms, Eccles)

Assuming no signings (if signed):

Wilson
Thomas Fadz Latibeaudiere (Kitching)
van Ewijk Eccles Sheaf Dasilva
Palmer
Wright Godden

S: Collins, Binks, Sakamoto, Kelly, Bidwell, Simms, Eghosa, Andrews, Obikwu (if signings: Latibeaudiere, Styles, new CM replacing kids)

In hindsight I expect Simms to start and Wright to come on just for fitness reasons and Wright is more dangerous against a tired defence.

MR is a stickler for repeating winning line ups is my reasoning.

If we do sign Kitching do we think Collins will get game time sooner because of it as hell have an understanding with Thomas and Kitching already?

No. Wilson's the keeper until he messes up now I think

Sounds like when one of you knobheads said we only signed Van Ewijk to make Gus feel less homesick. Dorks

New player Karaoke gets stale after a while, got to spice the initiation ceremonies up.

Very likely Robins will go with the same starting 11.
A bit of a concern we'll get overrun in midfield with Palmer and Godden not offering much support there.
Maybe Saka for Palmer but it wont happen, until 70 mins anyhows.

I’m hoping we get to the point where the strikers are interchangeable and any combination works with a reason for bringing the third off the bench

I fancy us for a win, 2-0. Beating Boro 3-0 must do wonders for confidence even if the score line was slightly flattering.

Unchanged team with any new signings likely to come in on the bench.

I’m not excited for this away day and making a bit of a weekend of it of it too! #pusb

Wasn’t Collins on the bench for the second half of last season (when Thomas was there)?

They're not impressed with their new boss to date, we should be going there to win. Historic results are irrelevant imo.

I think we’ll start with same 11 as Saturday, would like to see Wright start instead of Simms personally.

I would keep it as it is, not sure it'll do Simms confidence much good to drop him already. I also think he needs the match practice as looks rustiest of the three.

I would keep it the same for the moment too. I like a fresh Wright coming on against tiring defenders.

Yes, we’d never won at the Riverside until last season.
