Team for Saturday

Shit or Bust for me and so team pretty much should take care of itself.
Hopefully Rhodes is back and has found his scoring boots.
Look forward to seeing Byers.
Play Gabriel.
12th man could make the difference.
 
Grimshaw
Pennington Ekpiteta Husband
Lyons Morgan Norburn Dembele Coulson
Lavery (or Rhodes if fit) Joseph
Subs: O'Donnell, Casey, Gabriel, Byers, Hamilton, Kouassi, Lavery or Virtue (if Rhodes fit/ unfit)
 
Byers needs to start I think. I was away at the weekend and haven't seen the game but it increasingly feels like it's more about how we play than who plays. We used to see a squad with a heart and soul on TTV videos, the sofa chats etc. It now seems a bit soulless and the likes of Marv, Hubby, Kenny seems to have got bored. Since the likes of Jerry and Uncle Dick moved on.

We don't seem to have players in form very often. Morgan has had a purple patch. Rhodes did obviously but that has slipped away. Kenny was going well. But 30 games in we don't seem to have a settled and reliable defence, a convincing midfield or a settled forward line that looks dangerous.

Doesn't feel like a promotion side right now, to me. Not coming together like we thought it would. It may still do but the clock is ticking. Perhaps Byers can infuse some new energy into the patient.

Yep, agree Norburn should drop out if we play two in the middle. He has been poor. Give Byres a chance to show what he can do
 
Agree with the above. Byers needs to start.

Hopefully Rhodes is fit. From the sounds of it, he was pushing to play last weekend.

I'll let Gabriel off for his display at Stevenage but Norburn, Coulson and CJ are chopped. If Rhodes isn't fit, I'd start Kouassi.
Defo this team although I would have coulson for lyons, as thought he was great 30mins at stevenage and linked up well with hubby... after then they all were crap.

Nothing against lyons and think he has been harshly treated but that's my opinion for him not starting.

Think we all agree CJ has to be on bench... for bit of a rest.. confidence etc.

Guess one positive we won't be saying....."Oakley booth!! "

I had a quick check back and it is a long time since Byers played a full 90 mins for Wednesday. I would be surprised if he is thrown in at the deep end and will probably start on the bench. There is a heavy schedule of games coming up so rotating the squad is going to be an important factor.
 
I will be surprised if Rhodes is involved.

It takes weeks for a rib injury to heal. Norburn was out for a good month.

He may make the bench for Bolton.
