  • 5 changes from the weekend. 
    Just cant help himself can he ? Really should only have been 2 - Aneke & Pearce (if they thought Famewo couldn't  start)
    And Jaiyesimi too presumably since you seemed so pleased to see him starting?

    Looks like Gunter is missing through injury too which makes an enforced fourth change.

    The only change that might be seen as “tinkering” is Watson in for Smith. Otherwise all of these switches make a lot of sense.
    I don't see the sense in not starting Aneke (our top goal scorer) when he missed Saturdays game - hardly needs resting does he. And the fact that he usually come on in the 2nd half when we are losing.

    You don't need reminding what happens if we concede first !

    Gunter and Maatsen were awful on Saturday, so I don't have a problem with those changes. 
  • To quote some lyrics from Nick Caves song Leviathan from his Ghosteen album “Oh my oh my oh my oh my oh my...”

    Nevertheless, chin up as we are likely to take another dollop of shyte football. 🤓

    I suspect Bowyer has picked this team with a view to Saturday. He is probably hoping to start Aneke against Blackpool so is looking for us to do well enough in the first half to not have to give him too many minutes. 

    I can see the logic, but not sure it will work. We are certainly going to need DJ and Millar to have strong games. I presume Gunter has a knock and Morgan has been dropped.
  • We have 2 wingers and he chooses to go for 433 I really don't get Bowyer's tactics at all is he looking to get back to his bloody fishing lake?
  • Love Thomas's guitar work on Pass :)

    Neither of them were brilliant @ Burton either, despite the former playing Centre-Back so a bit like the Rochdale away game where Bowyer took the performances from the second half, I'm not surprised he's made selections from that 4-2 defeat performance in mind
  • I'm sorry but neither Watson or Pratley should be anywhere near starting.

    And yet, both of them do start.

    Its nonsense.

  • What formation do Burton play?

    3 at the back for them might be a reason we’ve started pace up with Stockley, otherwise I’m struggling to understand that lineup.
  • MORGAN'S BEEN TRAINING WELL.


    NEXT GAME

    MORGAN DROPPED FROM SQUAD ENTIRELY.

    WTAF?
  • I thought Watson was terrible on Saturday and haven't been convinced of him all season. Smith should be in there.
  • In other news 4-3-3 with Watson and Pratley in midfield has seen us get 10/12 points.
  • Doncaster's game @ Blackpool has been postponed
  • I hope kick-off is delayed ... Valley Pass Live is now renamed Valley Porn Live.

    Put kick-off back to ... I don't know ... September?

    More Morts please!

    Matthews in for Gunter- Good
    Aneke benched - Bad
    DJ & Millar -  Good
    Watson & Pratley-  Bad
    Smith benched-  Bad
    Pearce for Famewo -  Sensible 

    a mixed bag
    Pearce for famewo- sensible but still bad!!!
  • I get the frustration about the midfield 3 but something has to give if we are playing two wingers. Shinnie will get forward with one of Pratley or Watson but we have to be mindful that playing with three up top means we are susceptible to the counter especially down the wings. It’s an attacking formation even if some don’t like the personnel. 
    But then we're not playing 442 with 2 strikers, we still have the same 3 attacking players starting as we had on Saturday - Ronnie, Stockley, Millar vs Stockley, Millar, DJ
  • Great memories from Morts, and the stories he can tell
  • Watson and Pratley both starting. 
    FFS Bowyer we are playing Burton Albion not Barcelona.

    I assume we had Famewo and Inniss at the back in these games though?

    You don't get why he's gone with 2 pacy wingers at lw and rw
  • I'm not the only one not excited by the line up then?

    Fingers crossed they prove a lot of us wrong.

    Yeah why start them in Midfield together when the four games they've played has wielded the below:

    Wigan: 1-0
    Blackpool: 1-0
    Oxford: 2-0
    Shrewsbury: 1-1
  • Curbs is hilarious

    It's just brilliant, isn't it!

    Curbs has just got the most wonderful dry sense of humour.
  • WTAF is that team
  • Surely a 4-3-3 is 3 up front? Why are some moaning that it’s 1?
