Wonder how we'll shape up... presumably jobi in the centre and blackman left?

[St. Brynjar]

Was hoping for more wingers.

[PistolPete]

Like this?

-------Blackman-------Pogrebnyak-----
Drenthe------McAnuff---------McCleary
-----------------Akpan-------------------
Obita---- Gorkss ----- Pearce------Gunter
----------------McCarthy----------------


or...


-Blackman-------Pogrebnyak-----McCleary

That made me chuckle...

[Mr.Swainey]

Great to see Craig Tanner on the bench.

[Pepe the Horseman]

Thoughts are with winchester_royal at this time.

[PistolPete]

Personally I think the lineup would make more sense with Tsishbola in midfield instead of Blackman...

[Pepe the Horseman]

Blackman will be on the left, with Jobi in the middle.

Thoughts are with winchester_royal at this time.

Can't believe I'm missing his big break tonight

Thank you for your concern though Pepe <3

I'd love to see Tshibola given a run at the first team.

[Big Ern]

are we winning yet?

I cannot believe that we are playing Jobi in the centre again. Blackman playing too.. Jobi in cm reminds me of our shit PL season last year. Embarrassing. I suppose we can get away with it in the chumpionship.

Any chance Tanner will get on? I suppose not ahead of ALF. Think Taylor should have played in cm at the expense of Blackman and had Jobi out wide.

QPR beating Wigan at the moment

Good find Wigan annoying.

[USA_Loyal_Royal]

not sure how that one would best be played out. probably a draw would be the best result? difficult to say really.

[kwik-silva]

I literally turned on the radio as they score. Aaaand turning it back off.

[USA_Loyal_Royal]

1-0 barnsley. our poor home form continues...

[Libertine]

SIgh...we're gonna make a hash of this aren't we?
