It's always darkest before dawn. And when we sit in the Premier League and Champions League in a few years time, this period will keep us grounded and make us enjoy those sweet times the more.
The turn around in our fortune starts here. Fleetwood are poor. 6-1 Charlton.
Let's give the other players a chance as they can't be worse can they, I'd have B-T on the bench as an impact sub and give Souaré and Kirk a chance on the left
Weather forecast looks filthy and the ground is exposed at the best of times. Will be a chance to observe whether the players are fighting for NA and the shirt but suspect it renders the result a bit of a lottery.
Credit to you mate for putting this together, would have been really hard to write.
Not a clue on the team and most going for 5 at the back, with Adkins saying about conceding too many and being away from home in horrible conditions next to the sea, I can see 5 at the back as well. Just don’t know if he’s going to want to start that negative, tough one.
Not a clue so maybe something like…

Jesus, that team has no width, speed or attacking flair. Reminds me of the team Curbs put out away to Wigan (yes, the manager you all want back) back on 2005. Lost that one 3-0.

Width, speed and attacking flair haven't exactly been serving us well have they? Might not be pretty but we need to try to grind out some results, even if that means lining up more defensively.

Really surprised Adkins is still in charge, but hoping the boys can show a bit of fight & turn this around. People wanting Charlton to lose so the manager gets sacked baffle me.
I'm expecting a good response from Charlton tomorrow ... for the first 15-20 minutes anyway.
After that it'll be the usual defensive frailties, aided and abetted by a toothless midfield.
Captain Pugwash will get at least two airings tomorrow and we'll get a consolation goal once the Cod Army is already safely back in harbour with the three points.
Adkins will receive the Black Spot before the weekend is out.

why do we have to go from one extreme to the other? get watson out fora more mobile cdm and it could just be whats needed

If he goes straight after the game, the Quest commentator can use the "walk the plank" analogy

Can’t remember that team but do remember Les Reed’s away to Boro.
5-4-1 with a midfield four of Kish Holland Faye Hughes.
So defensive that you’re only ever going to lose due to having nothing going forward.
if i remember rightly we had a 90 minute game of head tennis up there last year - was a shocking spectacle - can't see the turnaround happening tomorrow

Fair enough. I'd have Dobson in over him too though it probably only slightly improves us.
This time last season Burton were 24th and Oxford were 23rd ….. where did Oxford finish ??
A one off doesn't prove a rule. I can't be bothered to work it out but I would put money on a team that is 23rd after 10 games to be more likely to get relegated than reach the playoffs. Not that I expect either outcome this season.

The turn around in our fortune starts here. Fleetwood are poor. 6-1 Charlton.
Henderson
Gunter. Lavelle, Desi, Souaré
Leko, Gilbey, Clare, Kirk,
Washington, Davison
Mac, B-T, Lee, Dobson, Stockley, Matthews, Watson
It's hard to see us gaining 3 points, not easy seeing one point TBH.
I'll go for a 4-3/4-4, sadly I'm erring on losing 4-3.
Formation should be interesting, will we see the usual 4/5 changes...... FWIW I think 442:
MacGillivray
Matthews- Lavelle - Famewo - Souare
Kirk - Clare - Gilbey - Lee
Washington - Davison
But will probably be;
MacGillivray
Gunter - Lavelle - Pearce - Purrington
Clare - Watson - Gilbey -
Lee - Washington - Stockley
Can't believe the 11th game of the season is already a relegation 6 pointer!
Be happy with a scrappy 1-0 win but ill be honest, I just cant see where this win is coming from.
Cuckoo
That said, I fear another loss. 2-1 to Fleetwood
MacGillivray
Matthews Lavelle Famewo Pape
Watson Clare
Leko Gilbey CBT
Davison
I think he thinks that that is probably his best team.

Any chance of you responding to the questions about your false offside claims on the Bolton thread?
He just comes in, drops his shit and flounces off
Just goes around with wind-ups!
2-1 COYR
