    We have no midfield. They're injured. We'd be trying to flood using fresh air.

    Difficult one. Personally I would started with Ramsey and jankewitz but I can see why he’s forced to play people slightly out of their normal position. But hey, back in the day I’d be happy to pay anywhere just to get a game!

    Forget the bench. That starting 11 is the best available.

    I have low expectations tonight, which hopefully means pleasantly surprised.
    Wine o’clock I do believe.

    I probably would have preferred an actual RB at RB. Not much of a vote of confidence in Ramsey leaving him on the bench, but maybe he'll put in an appearance at some point.

    Well even with three CBs, someone has to cover the wide areas. Or maybe we're planning to play 90 minutes in their half.

    If we lose again today how much would it cost to get Tom Davis back to be Barry Gale again? We always seemed to do alright when Barry Gale was around

    Well i was hoping Ryan and Dejneppo will do that.

    But I prefer your plan of only being in their half.

    When Ralph gets sacked after we dont beat Sheffield Utd, I think you should apply for his job :emoticon-0126-nerd:

    Would have preferred Ramsey at RB and Tella in, but at the moment we just have to see what sticks.

    Will be interesting to see how Forster copes if he is tested as expected tonight after 4 games where he did well enough but wasn’t really challenged.

    One thing we will miss is Alex catching crosses. Fraser prefers to punch which is fine if you get plenty of distance on it.

    Rb not good enough at the moment.

    But Bednarek isn't good enough there either.

    Sure, which is the only opinion that really matters, but we can have different thoughts than the boss...

    Of course, but the question was “not sure why playing a Cb at Rb when we have a Rb on the bench”

    The answer is that Bednarek is clearly Hassenhuttls second best right back option in the squad.

    Ok, it's still an opinion though.

    It reminds me back at the start of last season, when we all begged Ralph to stop playing players out of position.

    I'm aware of the injuries, and that his hand is forced, I just think it may be wrong, that is all.
