Re: Doncaster (A)

Subs: Weale, Beckford, Abe, Tunchev and Fernandes

Beckford deserved the dropping, but it says it all when Howard is the only option we can bring in instead.

"Strength in depth" my arse (or at least in the forward positions).

 

[Micky]

Unfortunately Howard is the only aerial option.

People were talking about having too many strikers at the start of the season when we were playing with one up front with Nugent, Beckford, Vassell, Waghorn, Howard, Gallagher and Schlupp all capable of playing there.

 

[st albans fox]

nice to see a side selected for the team we're playing against. (if you get my meaning)

 

[lanxfox jnr]

Can't see what Pearson see's in Wellens, surely seeing him play badly most weeks should warrant a return for Abe, Fernandes or Johnson

People are still saying we're just a couple of wide midfielders short, Jeff. Suggesting they think our forward options are more than good enough for promotion.

I know this is very much a case of:

But we need another (better) forward imo.

Pearson clearly loves him ...

I have to agree, however I struggle to see which amazingly imaginative team he could select.

Agreed.

 

[turnstileblue63]

Doncaster: Woods, O'Connor, Ilunga, Beye, Hird, Barnes, Stock (c), Gillett, Coppinger, Sharp, Fortune

Subs: Maxted, Bennett, Friend, Hayter, Dumbuya

Woods in goal, a rookie young 'un that will most probrably play out his skin.........

Ikeme & Sullivan are out injured.

Go on then tell us your most imaginative one then.

 

[The Old Fox]

I do not like to be negative, but I have to agree.

 

[Orifice]

Dreadful. Horrible. Nasty. Putrid. No Bloody Good.


Are we winning yet?

 

[gregs_y2k]

Howard starting! says it all for me. Why did Beckford deserve dropping?

 

[Profondo Rosso]

Howard starting! says it all for me. Why did Beckford deserve dropping?

Because he's a greedy bastard who can't finish to save his life?

 

[Nottingham Fox]

Howard starting! says it all for me. Why did Beckford deserve dropping?

Maybe he's not 100% fit, maybe he's had a poor week at training, who knows. I'm happy to trust Pearson on this one.

The most important change today.............

Young back in for Walsh :icon_bigg
