From the line-up in the OP I don't expect Ajose to feature & LB will go with the tried & tested (well, I pre-season game) striking partnership of Grant & Recco. Also LB said that weekend that he wasn't playing the triaiists as they would probably not be featuring against Sunderland
You've all been played. LB is sucking up to RD & is pretending that we are earnestly looking to bring in players when in reality we've not got a pot to piss in.
The fact that both signings will most likely not start & may not even make the bench says it all. By now surely at least 2 of Dawkins/Ince/Ward would have been signed.
A win or a draw & we are top of the league come 2.30pm........a defeat & we are bottom.

I love your posts, Golfie.
They make me realise my life is not so bad after all.

I've just amended that post.......even more negative. lol
Got a feeling two from Lapslie | Maloney | Morgan could be starting on Saturday then
Would honestly rather leave Pratley on the bench, we may we weak in midfield with JFC gone but would rather we didnt throw Darren in and so risk another injury

Throw him in? He has completed 2 x 45 mins and has been training with us for a good while now. No reason he cant play for 70 mins or so.
If that JFC news is true, then we havent a hope of competing this year. Load of kids plus crocks - we will literally be Blackpool part 2.

Pearce in his first three friendlies played 45mins and then just 30mins, its only in the last week that he's been able to play over 60mins in a game
There is no way Pratley will be fit enough to play 70+ mins yet
I'll be surprised if he doesnt start on the bench yet then appear around the 60th minute, hopefully we'll be winning so he'll be an option to tighten up

Well seeing as thats about as likely as me waking up tomorrow morning with Michelle Keegan bouncing on my balls, I'll stick with wanting to stick Pratley straight in.
JFC was THE player that I had been hoping to watch (for the first time) as he seemed to be one of our best players. And now an ACL injury? Jesus Christ......
is that true about JFC - not seen anything yet other than on here.
why are they training today and not travelling up there ?
The worry is @RedHenry seems well informed about what happens @ Sparrows Lane with past comments being spot on
Probably travelling up tomorrow
They would never have travelled up today and lost a days worth of training working on shape and other aspects ahead of Saturday. Travelling up tomorrow is fine.
Not saying you are wrong but that is quite a complicated injury and you don't fully know the problem until swelling has gone down so how would they know already?
There is something something seriously wrong with the amount of injuries we have picked up over the past couple of years. I know we changed certain medical and fitness personal but it appears to of had no effect. This problem with t
It is being reported elsewhere that it is true about JFC. I don't know personally, but if it is true our squad is even more threadbare than I thought. I make it potentially 14/15 fit players?

RB had better come out of retirement & play.

oops.....forget to ask him about the 6m murdered Jews.....
Guess Bowyer wont say anything about JFC to try and keep Sunderland guessing

Absolutely gutted. Just hope it isn’t too bad and he is back quicker than they hope... wow, things are beyond bad for us with luck and injuries!

Losing JFC is such a huge loss.
