Pre-Match Thread Scunthorpe United vs Southend Utd

[Harry Bullocks]

I reckon you're seeing things Harry.

Age, visually challenged, and 4 shifts to go...these are my excuses...

 

[Ayrshire Blue]

Over the last 6 matches we're 23rd in the form table and Scunthorpe are 22nd, we need to be aiming for at least a point here.

A POINT?!?

This is an absolute must win!

think Farmdog ,got it almost right ,but i would leave out Bunn and bring in Klass . lol

 

[Lambs Beret]

We've never won at Glanford Park. 15th time lucky?

 

[OldBlueLady]

Are we really expecting both Lennon and Kiernan to play after a full match on Saturday?

 

[Tombstone Blues]

Has anyone who has picked a team so far either watched the whole broadcast back or actually go to Blackpool?

Anyone??

 

[mfurok]

We'll do fine against the Wombles.

Like we did at their place?

It's not negative though

No that was an awful performance.Now is not the time to lose faith though.

I know mfurok went and I certainly watched the match live on iFollow.Let's face it ,we're all hurting after a draw that felt like a defeat.Pre-match I (and many others ) would have taken a point. If Simon Cox had scored from that late chance we'd have got all 3 points.That's football.

But neither of you have picked a team? I’m just interested to see how many picking a team for tomorrow are doing it based on seeing the game.

I prefer to let SCP pick the team.After all, that's his job and I imagine he knows better than I do who's fit and who's not.He also carries the can for the result on the basis of our performance. Or is that too rational?

Anyone??

It’s a fair challenge - there was one report on the post match thread from someone who was at the game I remember but that’s it.

What do you think the team should be?

 

[mfurok]

Anyone??

OK if you insist.

The same team but Demi for Elvis.

They played well enough for another chance but please no defensive nonsense at the end whatever the score.

I only watched the game on the broadcast yesterday but I did watch the whole game....

If Lennon / Kiernan / Hyam are all fit to play again so soon I would stick with the same formation.

But I would make the following changes....

Moore for Turner....there’s just no comparison in quality but I’d play Kiernan in the middle and Moore to his right and Lennon to his left.

Wabo for Kelman....that was too much for Kelman. He was like a kid chasing a balloon around the playground and never quite catching it. I fail to see how Wabo could have less effect and to be fair Wabo has scored goals at a better level.

 

[Amwell Blue]

Hopefully the return of an ex-player will work in our favour

It's up to the players and management to make the difference. Posts on this board have no effect. Not being negative but truthful.

 

[overseas shrimper]

From home matches, to avoid relegation a point away tends to be the aim and then 3 at home.

I think we're more inclined to pick up points away from the negativity that seems to be rife at the Hall.
