Need to be more positive away, will be difficult as we have limited wide players, with injuries and suspensions. Personally,I feel if we don?t go attacking ,then they will pick us off.

Tough game.

                      Ross

Banks     Olson    Baines    Golden

              Marriott  Crawford

Weaver         Newby       Reddin

                      Linney

We?ve looked so rigid away from home this season, apart from the odd game. Need more freedom to attack and higher tempo.

Unfortunately, don't think Parky will go attacking and I can only see a defeat.

Hope to be proven wrong.

Obvious changes in in my opinion. Will Parky be brave?..
           
                       Ross

Golden.    J.Jones.   Baines.    E.Jones

           
        Osborne.   Crawford/Wilson


Reddin.           Newby.          Amaluzor


                       Linney


Will be good to have Eddy back, brings a lot going forward. Linney has to start and we need more quality in the 10. Maybe not this game but would like to see Weaver be given a game or two in the number 10. Don't want to miss the next Berry, who has started very strong in league 2.

I've always liked the look of Amaluzor on his strongest side. He gets at them more. He and Reddin would drag 4 players out and that would give the likes of Newby and Linney more room to get into.

Golden must remain RB, harsh on Banks but football is all about tough decisions. He will have plenty of game time over the season.

Do we need more bite in CM, Wilson ?

I personally feel that it would be a weak decision if we went wingbacks. Just need to start our best 11 available and we haven't done that yet.

Kossy to be brought out in the 10, if Newby isn?t making us tick.

Be positive and get at them. I know we lost to Chesterfield away last season,but that sort of tempo would surprise FGR.

Good result on Tuesday, but still would like to see more pace in our attack. Thought Reddin gave his all when he came on.

Haygarth was OK in patches but didn't influence the game enough for me. I would go for the below.

Eddie Jones last ban? Will be good to have him back.

                 Ross

Golden  Jones   Baines    Banks

         Osborne   Crawford

Amaluzor    Newby    Reddin
                 
                  Linney

Going early.

Not seen any pre season games.

Really need Baines and Linney available, two big players for us.

Marriott and Crankshaw still a while off.

I would go with the below ( if available)

                        Ross

Golden    Cooper   Baines      Jones

               Osborne   Crawford

Amulazor        Kossy         Newby

                     Linney

Subs : J.Jones, Wilson, Nuttall, Haygarth, Banks, Reddin & Weaver/keeper

Slightly harsh on Banks but Golden is a better defender.

Obvious who starts if Linney and Baines aren't fit, but not sure who would be no.10 if Kossy isn't available. From the commentary in games Haygarth seems to be improving?.

Cooper had a bad game on Sat, maybe still has hamstring issues. Could start Banks as right CB.

                         Ross

Donawa      Banks     Baines     Jones

                Osborne   Wilson

Amaluzor           CCC           Newby

                        Linney


Got to be starting Linney, with CCC back as 10.


If Amaluzor is still injured then either Kossy or Mooney.


Subs : Mooney, Kossy, Roscoe, Hancox & Cooper

Not having that a high water table is the reason why the game was called off today.

Need an official update from the club.

What are the issues with the pitch?

With the pitch guarantee, was it 10 years? Does it include repairs, because it is clearly not draining as it should.

Have the club investigated the local water drainage from the ground for a mile or 2. Could be a blockage further away from the ground, restricting flow……

Why are we advertising that we were confident the game was going ahead and no update until just before 5.

Has the sprinkler pipes been checked?could be a leak there…

180k on a pitch and it is really poor, after only 2 seasons.

What are people’s first 11?

If we had everyone fit and playing at their best.

Excluding loan players and Crankshaw.

For me…..

                     Ross

Donawa    J.Jones     Baines    E.Jones

              Marriott  Osborne

Amaluzor          CCC             Kossy

                    Linney

Subs :Cooper/Roscoe, Banks, Angus, Mooney, Wilson

J.Jones just beats Cooper, but needs to hit the standards that he was playing in the second half of last season.

If given a run of games and can keep fit, Donawa could become our first choice RB. Would bring more to the team,in my opinion, especially overlapping the winger.

Kossy, just over Mooney. My only concern with Kossy is whether he can ever get back to his best and his best was in the 10 position and that position belongs to CCC.

                    Ross

Donawa  Cooper  Baines Jones

            Osbourne  Marriott

Newby           CCC       Amaluzor
   
                      Linney

Need more pace and threat up top.

Personally,  and if available, still feel Donawa should be our right back. Defends equally to Banks, but attacks much better.

Amaluzor on his more natural side.

Need to be positive, have full-backs overlapping and get numbers into the box.

There is no reason why we can't take all 3 points. Just need to be more brave than Saturday.
