Pre-Match Thread Southend United v Newport County

[Massimo Giovanni]

Tuesday is only a few days and nights away.
The BIG games keep on coming; it is all to play for for both teams with aspirations (and cliches) to the fore.
We MUST have 3pts, they would settle for a point.
With the "park the bus" situation looming Mr Brown must sharpen things up.
Dan in GK, hopefully no mask.
Same back 4 (injuries permitting) BUT have Mads and JBW/Luke on the bench as left and right side cover.
Middies? Tims, Atko, Wozza and Deegs (with Lenny, Mac, Kevan/Jack on bench).
Barry and Cassidy to start, The Pig to come on (after 60 mins?) .

3 nil Blues, sometime WE WILL hit top gear!

5734 crowd, 234 from The Valleys.

I cannot disagree too vehemently with your line-up since Atkinson after his goalSS! Is showing more confidence going forwards but Leonard will always be a better bet so midfield should be: Worrall,Leonard,Deegan,Timlin.

So drop a player who is in form and move a cm to wide midfield. Hmm, work that one out. Brown won't do that.

Brown not doing it will prove how right I am! And I,d be happy not to see Payne till next season

 

[Jedi Shrimper]

Looks like I'll be going on Tuesday, my first game in ages, can't wait!

 

[geoffmundo]

A point for us will all but guarantee a place in the play offs, all 3 and the faint hope of automatics will roll on for another game, but that fate still rests with Wycombe slipping as well as our surpassing of Bury in over a weeks time.

 

[AndyT]

Could be an important night, with Bury playing Shrewsbury and Wycombe playing Exeter, both losable games.

Tough call on McLaughlin/Worrall, otherwise no need to change anything.

What's the lowdown on Newport.

Are they strong, physical and a bit direct, or is that wrong?

Bury v Shrewsbury on Tuesday night can shake things up a bit, but we of course have to do our bit. Maybe we could get a favour from Exeter at Wycombe but I am not too hopeful after they got stuffed 4-0 by the shrews on Saturday. Bring Worrall in for MacLaughlin unchanged other than that. Be great to see Dan set a new record as well. UTB

I will be mainly checking the Wycombe game on Tuesday....come on exeter

Who's the player in form?

Yep , I think to give us any realistic chance of the top three then Shrewsbury and Exeter ( and us ) need to win on Tuesday.

Atkinson!? :thumbsup:

Think I would gives Corr a rest and start Piggott this week.

Our top scorer. Why?

 

[flapjack]

Think I would gives Corr a rest and start Piggott this week.

and replace him with who......which other striker is scoring goals at the moment, if he is fit enough then he has to play,maybe if we are winning take him of for the last 15-20 minutes but you have to start the only striker who is scoring goals

I've heard it all now!

 

[TTS]

Same again for me . The team that played on Saturday won. For me changes send out the wrong message to the squad. Also, listening to Brown, he feels that Deegan especially did enough (which I agree with) to wear the shirt again on Tuesday night.

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

Dont change a winning team. 8-0 to the shrimpers as Corr and Cassidy run riot.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

:moon:....says it all really !

Well, you seem to have got away with that one bkside.......... :smiles:
