Should Sammy put Holdsworth and Hurst straight into the starting lineup against Accy ?.
Would it be a big gamble when you consider that neither player has had virtually any first team football this season, also with so many reserve matches being postponed their chance of playing any competitive football has been severally limited.
They may well be physically fit enough to play but what about their match sharpness.
Hard enough at the best of times to hit the ground running when you have been out for a long time but against a Stanley team who will close you down and not give you any time on the ball, it just makes it that more difficult.
On the other hand changes need to be made and it would be just as big if not a bigger gamble to leave the side unchanged.
Personally i would be inclined to start with either Holdsworth or Hurst in the right midfield position with a view to introducing the other as a sub, difficult decision for Sammy to make but he will have been able to see both players in training.
My team would be.
