Pratley,Gallagher and Lockyer are on 4 yellow cards, would you rest any of them for the Preston game, so they can’t pick up a card, and end up missing the Millwall match?

No because we got no other fuckers to play!2

rest Pratley as he will be more use against Mwall and Cullen can cover his position on Sunday
possibly rest Lockyer if LB thinks Sarr can cover0 -
Wouldn’t rest them, but probably very likely one will get a yellow.0
-
Playing 2nd in table. Need to put out our best side. But don't they set up 4-4-2? May cause variation in line-up.0

Resting players for a league match, so they’re available for a league match, doesn’t sound like the best idea.8
-
No, because Saturday is just as important. A really tough game too against an excellent and in form Preston side4
-
I'd rather we had our best team out for the team second in the league, than the noisy neighbours down the road...0

Pratley rotates anyway.
Think about Millwall after Preston.0 -
We are not making playoffs so would rather we had best team against Millwall !!0

Pratley has been excellent this season , but personally I’d save him for Millwall, (and put him on the bench v Preston) when an experienced head is just what we need in midfield for the Millwall game.
I’m sure Lee will suss it out, but knowing our luck at the moment with losing players, all 3 of them will play versus Preston, pick up a card and end up missing the Millwall game!0 -

Nope. Play who you've got. Deal with the future as it happens.3

The immediate priority is getting the best result possible from our next home match.2

Oshilaja, Pearce& Sarr in defence, Solly, Purrington, Cullen, Kayal, Oztumer in midfield, Bonne & Leko up front.

Some idiotic comments on here, you play your best team regardless. Millwall is just another game in reality it's no more important than any other League game and I'm sure Bowyer won't be thinking about it until after Preston7

Three points are available from each and every game. Play the team that gives you the best chance of winning the game.
Even so it’s not nailed on that any of those three pick up a card against Preston anyway. It took them fourteen games to get to four.1 -

Those writing off our chances of promotion are a lot like Aribo, Grant and Bauer. You don’t realise what we’ve got here. As long as Bowyer stays you’ll learn eventually.0

Play to win every game,if players get booked,there you go.We need to win sunday,worry about other games on monday morning.0

We didn’t bloody lose to Leeds, Fulham, Derby or West Brom so I reckon we’ve got a chance.
Wouldn’t have wanted to be alongside you in the trenches!2 -

Anyway, is there a moratorium on yellows this season? If so, when?0 -

Even a draw and I can see the sort of comments that will make some of us bang our heads against the wall
"Embarrassment" | "Bottlers" will surely be a couple of words used to describe the players0 -
Lee knows best , in Lord Bowyer we trust !
After all, he's got us this far , which is better than most expected.

A win and I’ll be buzzing of course, that’s completely different.
Regarding the team for Sunday, it has to be our best available team. It’s pointless otherwise and what message does that send out to the players coming in or being left out for the week after? What message does that say about the rest of the season? Pick our strongest side and if we are winning, then look at taking them off if suitable and begin to have the following week in mind.
Take each game as it comes, just the way Bow has always been.2 -
Trouble is we can rest Pratley against Preston ready for Millwall but whats to say he doesnt get injured in training?
Or do we give the lads the week off between Preston and Millwall just to be safe or even get them to train in those Zorb things?
As for the Millwall game; Its going to be 0-0 with Bonne missing a one v one in the 90th minute when all he had to do was pass it to Taylor to put it into an empty net0 -

Bowyer will see both as winnable games, therefore will not "weaken" his team in order to fight for "more likely" points at Millwall, that is nonsense.
However he may view it as foolish to risk all three as then he would could have an effective 13 injuries for the game against our next opposition.
Injuries plus potential suspensions may lead to a minor change in approach this Sunday.0 -
V Millwall essentially is just another game worth 3 points .. why risk playing a weakened team before playing them when all points are invaluable ?0

Fuck millwall. Our U23’s would beat those mugs. If you’re fit and ready, you play. You play your best team for Preston, beat them, and then paste the next.1
