    Slightly surprised not to see Schwartz on the bench seeing as this is a must win. Would have thought both Chuks and Ronnie would be in there just in case in this formation. Looks like Adkins has players on the bench for just in case we have to change the shape though, which is understandable. Need 3 points today 
    Looks like he's kept the 4-3-3 as plan c. 

    Plan A - 3-5-2

    Plan B 5-3-2 

    Plan C 4-3-3

    No problem with that. 

    Every week the line out comes out and every week someone will say they are suprised Ronnie is not on the bench.

    Surely it's clear now, at least for this season, that he is not trusted/rated by the management team.

    Am surprised there have been no predictions with Smyth scoring in a 1-0 win
    Even we aren’t shit enough to let Paul Smyth score against us.

    Wanted Innis & Famewo together so  ✔

    Quite like 5 at the back so ✔

    Like 2 up front so ✔

    Prefer Mathews to Gunter as rwb, but if Matthews is injured then so be it. So hope we go for it from the off & we arent camped in our half for the first 10 mins.

    Watson out of the squad - anyone know if he has played the sufficient amount of games to trigger an extra year? Really really hope not, he’s crap.

    Three cente backs and a geriatric. 

    Prof Positive going for it again. 

    And very tough on Purrington who has been our best player for the last two matches. 

    Why not at least try to win ? 

    I'll be in the garden.  Wake me up when we've drawn. 
    Do you promise?

    Standard 2-1 victory for the addicks

    standard in that we are coasting then let one in with 20 mins remaining and sit back and invite pressure.

    I hope mints asked leaburn about battle of the bridge. And the "come down lewisham" moment. 
    What was that about ? Don't think I've ever heard that.

    It was hinted at during Bowyer's last days, Watson was near to triggering it.

    There's no pace in that team apart from Washington, so they'll have to dominate possesion.  If we're trying to overload midfield, I'd rather have Shinnie involved as he's the best ball player in tight possesion.  But then for me in a 4-3-3 or 4-5-1, Shinnie should play where Maatsen was playing as an inside forward.  Why pack the midfield and also put two up top, but leave the best crosser and ball player on the bench?

    Good to see two up front but the 4-3-3 has been working well away from home. Back 3 is strong but I worry about the fullbacks. Are they able to defend and attack to the required level of a wing back? Not convinced by either of them to be honest.

    More people watching the amateur match on the pitch outside the ground 🤣
  • Wow, with the greatest respect to Accrington, when you compare their ground with the Valley you wonder how on earth are we in this league?
