A couple of strange decisions (Atkinson for Timlin, Hurst for Worrall). But a very strong bench.
 
 
CP says Brown says it's 4-4-2 with Atkinson and Hurst wide and Weston alongside Mooney. Very odd, would assume Timlin and/or Worrall have knocks or something.
 
 
No great loss and if we sign Garven I can't see him getting much time unless we get lots of injuries.

You respond to the wrong post?

I assume you are talking about Deegan?

If we were to sign Garven then that wont affect Deegan, they play different positions. Deegan was never going to be a regular starter, he will be brought in as and when we need more beard steel in the midfield.
 
still can't see us signing Garvan, he's quality.

Pretty sure he'd be with a bigger/higher club and not training with us if he was out of our reach.....

Back onto the starting line-up and it's a bit odd for me, not what I would have gone for. Atkinson isn't a winger and Hurst hasn't set the world alight over the past year so can't see us providing much of a threat down the wings. I'd ave thought Worrall and Weston wide and Mooney/Hunt up top, but we'll see how it unfolds

In brown we trust! :winking: there are methods to his madness.
