    Very tough match in prospect. Bradford have such good home form a draw would be good. It will be close but I think 1-0 to the Bantams and we create very little.

    Yes, but I'm only 20 odd miles from Bradford. Don't suppose you can drop them off?
    Actually, I'm leaving it last minute as to whether I can go. Anyone know if you can pay at the turnstiles?

    Karl says six or seven players didn't travel on Friday with a sickness bug.

    Yes, you can pay on the gate according to the OS.

    They've learned from their mistakes. Unfortunately we're scratching around for enough players.....

    Oh dear ....

    KR now realises how lightweight the squad really is.

    Phillips
    Konsa Bauer Pearce Chicksen
    Foley Ulvestad Crofts Botaka
    Ajose Magennis

    Beeney Teixeira Lennon Aribo Ba Hanlan Novak

    Charles-Cook, Mitov, Dijksteel, Kennedy, Umerah, Ahearne-Grant all possibles too I guess.

    ^^^^^^^^^^ not so weak as many suspect, unjustifiably

    We still have that spine of Bauer/Pearce, Crofts/Ulvestad, Magennis/Ajose, but I haven't a clue where the creativity in that team comes from. Perhaps Aribo for Foley, Kennedy maybe, Ba even.

    we're not very creative even at full strength .. creative midfielders at our current level are at a premium .. for me, the lack of same is the one cog missing from what is potentially a decent squad that has a lot of potential .. provided it is managed and set up to play in the right way

    Creativity needs to come from Botaka and Aribo.

    Chicken should be left wing not left back. Struggling to see good left back cover...

    Lennon at left back. Chicksen in front which will give him some cover and both good going forward.

    No one mentioning Hanlan either.

    A sickness bug usually means playing one or two who are sick but not as sick as teh ones who are out. It feels like a defeat is on the cards! Got to bring Ba back - take teh risk if it is a risk as our midfield won't cut the mustard here!

    I saw Ba play last Monday. Aribo would be a better bet except he lacks experience.

    Phillips
    Konsa, Bauer, Teixeira, Pearce, Chicksen
    Foley, Crofts, Ulvestad
    Magennis, Ajose

    Subs: Mitov, Botaka, KAG, Lennon, Hanlon, Novak, Aribo

    We have possibly the 3 best centre-backs in the league have Konsa & Chicksen as Wing-Backs to provide support and width keep 2 forwards and have 3 in centre mid to try win the battle in the middle of the park only problem is we lack quality and depth at centre-mid.

    Stay solid be a tight affair then bring on some impact subs.
