[Bath Alty]

So if Mooney starts are we expecting Kosylo or ceesay on the bench?  Three really good options for two slots, which side do they all prefer?

[JD]

We have another very promising looking forward signed up.

One of two things: does these leave us a little top heavy with our forward line and/or is Peers staying?

[Steve from Sale]

We need 2 keepers, 6 defenders, 6 midfield and 4 forwards, making 18 plus two fringe players. Total 20.

[altering um]

Tony, back four and Jake and a front five of Mooney, Kosylo, Ceesay, Hancock, Hulme. Sharing goals and assists left, right and centre.

Viva Alty!

If we're at home;
Dens Hannigan Mallarky White

If we're away
Dens Sutton Hannigan Hampson.

Good shout.

You can't be changing half the back 4 every other game

For opening day, I imagine where we play will have a bearing on who starts

[Bath Alty]

So starting front 4 anyone?

I think Hulme is nailed on at 9 but how does the rest work?

Hancock or Clayton at 10?

Ceesay, Kosylo and mooney fighting over the wingers spaces

Peers doesn't make the bench.  Once we get back to normal with 5 on the bench can you fit all 6 of them in the 16? 

I'm happy with 6 at the back with Richman as emergency RB and Moult as emergency CB  although the chances of having anyone to cover for him to free him up for that role is slim to none.  I wouldn't fancy a CM pairing of Richman and Williams in this league.

No Moult? A bold idea!

Let them contest for the starting positions through pre-season and go with your strongest back four based on the performances. It’s that simple.

Sutton's experience away at Notts County, Hartlepool et Al and Mallarkys knowledge of his own patch and our style at home maybe more of an indication than a few PSFs.

You’ve got to decide between the two eventually though. You can’t chop and change centre half’s each game, allow two of the three to form a natural partnership. Which is why we’ll probably settle on two and give them the first 4-5 games.

By that logic we’d have dropped Hannigan at home and gone with Jones & Mullarkey, the two ball players.

I expect we’re planning on White, Sutton, Hannigan, Hampson as the back four but if Dens or Toby really impress then PP has choices to make, which is exactly what we want.

Assuming everyone is at full fitness for the opening day, then I’d be amazed if we started the season with a LB playing at RB, instead of Shaun Densmore coming off his ‘Conf North team of the season’ and ‘managers player of the season’ performances.

[MarpleAlty]

Having a different back four for home compared to away games is just about the most bonkers thing I've heard on here for a while.

For what it's worth, I think the back four will start as Hampson, Hannigan, Sutton and Densmore unless the PSFs tell us anything otherwise.

[One Foot in the Grave]

Given his ability to bomb forward, I might consider Mullarkey at right back.
