    7 changes and still not fond of any of them. Still, COYR.

    Bowyer on VP now:

    ”we’ve missed JFC. He’s back in.”
    ”jayden before Saturday had tightness. Not taking a risk. He’s done well.”
    ”Chuks can be unplayable. He’s hungry after the red card”
    ”we have to address the game in right way. You have to earn the 3 points.”
    ”we have to do the basics right.”

    Bow comments:

    "We've missed JFC, that's obvious to see, that competitiveness, we'll see how long he can go"

    "Jayden before Saturday's game had tightness, before coming here hadn't played many minutes, don't want to take risks with him, opportunity for Chuks, on his day he can be unplayable"

    "Got to address the game in right way, no one gives you anything, have to earn 3 points, will have to compete, they will be fighting for the points, we must do the basics right"

    "It's crazy, since coming in charge, our home form had always been very good and year we went up away form was weakness but this year it's reversed, need to get back on track and hopefully that starts tonight"

    Bit harsh on Deji. He’s our second best CB, therefore should play...
    Agreed...shouldn't be dropped. I've said before you certainly been better than most of those around him.

    Fascinated to see how we go tonight. 

    Positive reaction or further decline?

    Having a really sh*t week and know where the likelihood is pointing. But come on boys, give us something to get upbeat about.

    COME ON YOU REDS!

    Love the idea that after last week's gutless performance, the worst in an absolute age, we should've kept the same team. 

    Bloody hell it's hard to read this site at the moment

    Not a single academy name in the squad, am I reading that right?

    Is it? Sorry, I didn't realise.

    Only just got home too.

    Thanks for stepping in, Ali.


    No probs Oggy, was just a bit concerned that you and others would miss the start of the game.

    Only 7 changes?

    Surely a Bowyer record for team rotation.

    Whatever has been going on behind the scenes, no smoke without fire ..... it's time to pull together to get a result.
    If it's another limp performance with Bowyer blaming everybody but himself, it's time for Thomas to bang all their bleddy heads together.

    You're professionals. Act like it.

    Stockley on the bench. Baffling. 
    Came off on Saturday with a bit of tightness
    I always thought that if a player was a doubt, you started him. Then if he has to come off you have not wasted a substitution.

    Whatever happens tonight, I’m going to try and stay positive. I’m not going to let our performance ruin my evening 🙄

    Miss the start of the game? That might prove to be a blessing in disguise. :neutral:

    I don't think anyone is saying keep the same team.

    But you must admit it looks like Bowyer puts the names in a hat at the moment and pulls 11 out.

    I have got to the worrying mood that I expect a defeat, anything else is a success

    When was the last time we started to left footed center halves, in a 2?

    Assuming it is a 2.

    Great to see JFC back, he's been our best player since Christmas. 4-3-3 or a diamond? I worry the midfield is lightweight, but I have to admit I don't know much about Smith yet.

    I've seen teams go on losing runs & the manager make a few changes.....but not 7 !!

    What happens if we lose tonight......another 7 changes for Saturday  ?

    Pressure on Oggy this evening surely - If we win with an Aliwibble Match Thread you have to wonder if we've been directing the blame for our run in the wrong direction?
    Oh no, I've been rumbled.

    Don't blame Bowyer for our limp form, blame me.

    That's a bit harsh. But I heard he has two more hats for half time - one for those coming off and another for those going on!

    But not exactly supportive of all the changes either...
