Chris Phillips reporting 8 changes to the starting line up.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Can't wait to see the team selection !!!

 

[manor15]

Not a bad line up at all, Pig rested. Other than that it's almost as strong as we could put out given the injuries and suspensions, good to see some changes at the back to get Thompson and Barrett back fit again.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Is that 4-5-1 ?

 

[AndyT]

Yep, good to see AB back.

 

[manor15]

Is that 4-5-1 ?

Depends how it's set up, could be 4-4-1-1 with Payne behind Mooney, 4-3-3 with Worrall and Hurst/Payne either side of Mooney, could be 4-5-1 with Payne in the middle, or 4-2-3-1 with proper wingers and Payne playing more attacking.

 

[Chalky]

8 changes according to Chris phillips.

 

[manor15]

I make that 7 changes?

White for O'Neill
Thompson for Bolger
Barrett for Prosser
Worrall for McLaughlin
Hurst for Timlin
Atkinson for Rea
Payne for Weston
Mooney for Pigott

Could you give me your permutations for tonight's lottery ??:smile:

I've edited my original post, Manor15, so apologies.

For some reason I thought White played on Saturday.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

Is Williams rested :smile:

Substitutes: P. Smith, Prosser, Pigott, O’Neill, Williams

Hope this helps...and placates Mrs Blue :thumbsup:

Is Williams rested :smile:

Always and for ever it seems!

 

[Barry.C]

I have a feeling for 5 nil with that line up of free scorers, a hat trick for Payne and a 4 minute cameo from Williams scoring a brace through blistering pace and a back flick at 60 miles an hour into the top left

A minute's silence before kick-off will be observed.

 

[Crowstone Crevette]

Kick off time and there is a large queue (50+) at the West Stand Ticket Office.

 

[RHB]

Come on you Blues, let's get this done with a good win.

 

[AndyT]

A minute's silence before kick-off will be observed.

Impeccably observed, as well.

Nice photo of the teams and West stand during the minute's silence.
