Live from a slightly damp Christie this morning.... I had a sneaky quick walk on the pitch and considering the rain we've had, it had drained very well.

Enjoyed that. Good, realistic assessment from Sammy. Reading between the lines it looks like being the same team on Friday as played at Chesterfield - except Mullin will come in for either Twissy or Jevons (I'm leaning towards guessing he'll pick Twissy now).

But there's a clear message there for Drummy (in particular) and Craney that Hunter is pressing for a place.

Hope that spurs the midfield on to a good performance (rain permitting) on Friday.

For me the whole point in bringing PM on board was to provide the knock downs for PJ who, as I've said since day one, needed a big target man to play off.

MrT isn't that type of player for me. He creates his own space. I would prefer to see all three in action together....but not sure who would make way.

How about:

Roche

Moss Bentley Artell/Adams Wilson

Duffy Panther Craney Twiss

Mullin Jevons

Personally I prefer it when Twiss plays upfront, but it seems Mullin has arrived to partner Jevons, which I think will work well. However I think Twiss is playing well and should be kept in the team. The right hand side looks a little weak defensively and I've not been too impressed with Moss yet so maybe try McStay at right back?

that would be exactly my team, although i wouldn't even have Adams on the bench.


oh and i prefer Mcstay but hopefully with Bentley game by game getting back to his best can show Moss the ropes

I'd go for...

________Mullin_Jevons
___Craney_Hunter_Panther__
Wilson_____________Duffy
____Adams Bentley Artell
__________Roche

Hunter deserves a starting place tommorow and he'll add a bit of bite to the midfield so Panther can get forward more. I'd start with Jevons but then sub on Twissy after 45 mins unless Jevons is doing exceptionally well.

Last couple of games have had 4 at the back and probably sticking with that system and we need some pace at the back , if Drummy is under pressure for a place in midfield then play him as a central defender alongside Bentley , at least then we have someone at the back who can has some pace and can pass a ball. :o
