Pre-Match Thread Southend United vs Torquay

[Kris]

For god's sake, Benyon, when did you learn to shoot like that? 1-0 Torquay, and in the last minute as well. :'(

Who died?
Can we play the same team if Egan's loan has run out?
If Ox had taken their chances (better chances than those wonder goals we have had scored against us of late) then maybe PB might be thinking of changes.
If we can then same staring line up would be good as we did look a much better balanced line up and the team played very well, most of the 94 minutes. Some changes on the bench might be likely.

They didnt and we could have scored 3 more easily.

If Egan's loan isnt extended then yes obviously he will have to bring Prosser in, but other than that if the players are available then for me start with the same team and bring the kid on as a sub.

so line up thus far

Bentley
white Prosser Solikikikiloki coker
hurst leonard Atkinson Timlin

Loza Barnard

Can see Torquay giving our midfield a real workout.They wont give our midfielders time on the ball as did Oxford, i think Torquay will harass and niggle for the whole game.Desperate teams do desperate things,they need a win as much as we do.think we will start with the same team as Monday ,but can see Laird and Murphy coming on early second half , with that i still think we will win 3-0 or 3-1.

On the bench in place of Payne I expect.

Got to be the same starting line up as Monday with Murphy on the bench probally for Payne.

Phil will know not too tinker with a wining side. If he can remeber that far back??

Is there an echo in here? :unsure: :winking:

 

[Murkey_Mouse]

We have to be flat track bullies for a change if we want to win!

Who will start against torquay

Now its said dont change a winning team .So what does Phil brown have in mind regards Jacob Murphy .Does he go straight in for his debut .Or will he start on the bench .Who would you drop from mondays game its going to be a real tough call . And hard on any play asked to sit the game out after the way everyone battled against Oxford.

Sounds good to me, with a young hungry pacy winger to come on in the second half. Preferably before the 84th minute.

I should imagine Brown is keen to play the lad, if things arent going our way i expect to see him earlier than 84 mins (possibly 82nd minute)

SIT!!!
I believe they stand bare chest, bellies white and clean shaven, and beating a drum (amongst other things) in The West; unless there is a big change from the club and they are allowed back into the acoustic wonder-house of the North Bank.:happy:

 

[Jamie Manktelow]

Must stay with winning team, but i'd like to see Murphy in role instead of Will Atkinson, but againnn, Atkinson was class on monday

 

[united we stand]

Of the last 10 games Timlin has been involved in, he's been subbed off 7 times for some strange reason. Wouldn't be surpised to see Murphy start given the impact that Loza had on the team and based on those stats, I wouldn't be entirely surprised if Timlin was the one dropped to the bench, with Murphy starting on the left wing.

Probably reading way too much into it and I hope that won't be the case, but who knows.

Bit odd..especially on monday as timlin was very industrious and a big part of that high tempo decimation of oxford
