Hoping Welsh-Hayes is able to play some part.
Be interesting to see if Hugill and/or Linney start.
Alty 2-1 Southend (Hulme,Jones)
-
Big match, no Oyedelle.
Hopefully MWH back, maybe a new winger if we sign one today. I guess Hulme and Hugill will start. Lundstram back into midfield. Hopefully we'll be looking for 3 points.

Must have missed that. How come Oyedele is unavailable? (or do you mean you wouldn't pick him for this one?)

Going to miss Oyedelle, not sure who i ld put there, suspect it will be Osbourne

Is not a sentence I expected to read on our forum. Huge miss.
-
Ah yes. Thanks for reminding me! 👍
-
If Miles Welch-Hayes is available, I guess we could always try Harry Perritt in holding midfield, with Lundstram and Marriott in front of him.
Or, if we're continuing the three at the back experiment, go 343 with Sinclair and Hulme either side of Hugill/Linney.
However I guess the easier thing would be to play Osborne at 10 as we've done in the past.

Play our strongest 11 on Sat.
Just read Oyedele isn't available. Need him for Halifax.

RW New Guy ?
10. Hulme

Then big rotation for Tuesday.

Highly unlikely the new lad from Oldham will get a start when he’s not really featured much there this season. I suspect Osbourne will be a starter.

Have I missed the email to season ticket holders with the additional ticket? Was going to pass it on to a mate at work.

Jordan's not a number 10 either.
Also, not a right winger but has done well out right.
Would have Hulme no.10 over Osborne all day long.
Linney needs to start and given decent minutes, before we shatter his confidence. He should be playing both games, considering he is cup tied.

^^^^^^ This (all day long!)

Jordan has generally played as a wide forward previously in his career though, where his work rate goes a long way. I don't think he's accomplished enough with the ball at his feet to play 10 at this level - yes I'm sure you think the same about Elliott Osborne but I'm sure the manager would go with that option first.

Mine didn't arrive so emailed club and Bill W sent over the discount code very quickly. Suggest doing the same...

Not a classic, by any stretch of the imagination - between two teams consigned to mid table.
Josh and Isaac magificent, as always - nice to hear the tannoy MOM actually get it right for a change.
MWH and Bennett both looked a little short on match sharpness - but I suppose that was to be expected.
I appreciate that Joe Hugill needs to be given game time, given he's our only option for the Trophy - however you can tell which one has played men's football out of him & Regan Linney - it's as clear as day.
-
A win AND a clean sheet-hallelujah.
Definitely rode our luck & on the balance Sarfend will be wondering how exactly they lost that one through some last ditch defending by us & woeful finishing by them.
Marriot & Lundstram ran the show in midfield again & Burgess from Oldham showed promise when he came on. How good is it too to have a bloke in Linney who you have total confidence with on pens, so cool sending their GK the wrong way. Been an age since we’ve had that reliable penalty taker. I thought there were signs from Bennett too that he’s gradually getting there.
Great attendance too, the FZ doing a roaring at HT & so many kids & parents in. A really positive day for our club overall & more to come this week.
-
Yeah poor game.
Much better with Marriott and Lundstram CM.
Don't buzz watching us play that formation, really missing us have wingers.Where is Sinclair?
Linney should be starting, he is far more dangerous than Hulme and Hugill.
Big rotation Tuesday. Should give the likes of Bennett, Pringle etc some much needed minutes.
-
As a glass half empty kind of bloke, can I point out the real positive of today's win?
We can now mathematically not finish bottom! 😉 😂😂
-
Poor game and atmosphere tbh.
Rode our luck a tad, thought Baines was superb.3 points is 3 points
Welsh-Hayes was decent enough but Bennett was miles off it.
Striker is going to be an issue next Saturday im afraid. May as well start Hugill on Tues as whoever plays there isn't going to see much of the ball
-
I'd like to see the penalty again. I thought they both slipped
-
If I'm not mistaken, that's our first clean sheet in the league since the Oldham game at the end of October and only our third of the season. The other being Aldershot in September?

Deffo a penalty

We also kept at clean sheet at Bromley back in August.

Saw Sinclair at HT in stands

The handball before that on the CSH side looked a clear pen to me but would like to see the highlights. So justice done on that front I think.
-
We will play twice as good and lose.....not a spectacle and as the Cult said to me....scored with our only shot on target
-
If we could do the same vs Halifax and again at Wembley it'd do for me! 😉

Ah yes. Forgot that one.
-
Poor game lack of quality from both teams. Not a fan of 532 lack of width really kills us going forward and don't have the wing backs good enough going forward for it to work .
-
Marriott was my MoM that man covers every blade of grass twice in every game. My first game back at ML for a long time. 3 pts is 3 pts
-

100% efficiency rate!
Not a memorable game (and I have to say that a draw would have been the fairest outcome) but, nonetheless, I am delighted that we have finally beaten those Essex shysters.
Plus a rare sighting of a clean sheet, too.
Marriott and Lundstram were both excellent (and a tip of the hat to Baines as well) and I fear that our next major challenge is going to comprise retaining both of them.
I always find Non League Day to be a curiously unsettling experience. The attendance invariably increases and yet the atmosphere itself seems to deflate.
As a long-standing grudge-bearer, Rochdale's defeat was the perfect accompaniment to our victory.
-
Got away with one there , good , sometimes desperate ,defending and poor finishing from them and never looked likely to score ourselves , penalty apart . Great three points considering .Both Josh and Isaac superb yet again . Massive lack of creativety going forward and both the 'H's never got a look in all game .
-
Great quote from Maher after the match, bemoaning their bad luck.
"Ralphy hits the post in the first half, a foot either side and it's in!"
The basic geography of football goalposts is obviously beyond him.
-
But you know what he meant. A draw would have been a fair rezult
-
It would.

my view about hitting post or cross bar is that you missed. it's nothing to do with luck.

I’m beginning to think that the ‘new’ formation with the 3 Centre Backs is here to stay, certainly with the players we currently have in the squad. It’s making us more solid at the back, albeit Southend did miss some chances. Our first clean sheet for months tells its own story, I’d be amazed to see Parky change it for the semi next week.
Baines was excellent, and Fergie had his best game since coming back to us. I’d love to think we have a chance of signing him permanently next season.
Sinclair was part of the warm up yesterday, I’m sure Parky is getting him right for Halifax. He played a lot of games after virtually nothing at Rochdale, I’m sure there was a reaction to that. Would love to see him flying next Sat.

I agree over the formation when we don't deploy wingers. Pleased with clean sheet yesterday, we got some great blocks in as did they. When not at your best need to find a way to win and we did. Thought Ollie commanded his box better and only had 1 save to make. Could of had another penalty and there player should have seen red for the penalty with a second yellow. Interesting to see the rotation on Tuesday.
Tyrese in my opinion is being rested following a knock he had, hopefully he'll be fit for next Saturday.
-
The formation allowed them to press and we had no outlet. I liked the look of Burgess when he came on but I thought he was a winger and was a little surprised not to see him in that position. Could not believe Ferguson did not get penalised for wrapping his arms around forwards. He needs to watch that
-
They did press us quite high, but I think we dealt with it OK. The extra man certainly helped in that respect, but it did leave us short on options other than sending it back to Ollie or lumping it forward to Joe and Jordan who weren't positioned wide enough to get in behind.
With the absence of Sinclair I think our hand was probably forced a little with the formation - if he's available I do still think we'd go back to 4231, for the home games at the very least I would have thought.

"We need that (something from the Notts Co. game) to take [some confidence] into the Halifax game".
Personally, I'd be a bit worried about resting Marriott and Lundstram and possibly ending up getting well beat and having our confidence affected. Sometimes you have to take a risk.

I agree, Parky will no doubt work out the calculated risks and know we need to compete against Notts.
