This is silly...we don't play two up front

[Snowflake Royal]

I'm regretting IT... tends to be a bit invisible against senior players and whilst he bullies a lot of kids, the determined ones give him a proper thrashing.

It has come to the point where I expect us to lose and have lost all hope of a win. I fully expect Coventry to turn us over on Saturday which will take the gloss off the celebration of achieving 150 years. But miracles do happen............

Totally agree with this. Would absolutely love to win this one...150 years, big-ish crowd etc etc. But just can't help but feel that Coventry will score first...and that will be that. Please be wrong.

[YorkshireRoyal99]

To be honest I can only see a comfortable 2-0 win for Coventry at the moment, maybe a bit raw after last night's result but I'm still remaining somewhat optimistic we will end up winning a game sooner rather than later.

Cash prizes available at the game lads! Probably some sort of tax write off.

took me a while to spot it.

[Crowbar6753]

Fully aware it won't be this line up but it is what I would do against Coventry.

Southwood

Yiadom
Morrison
McIntyre
Baba

Rinomhota
Laurent
Swift

Camara
Joao
Ince

You might be onto something here, i like the three up to option and i would like to see more of Camara, as from what I've seen from his brief cameo's, he looks pretty lively.

[Snowflake Royal]

Taking a serious crack for a minute. A big shake up is needed.

Defence - we lack pace in the middle
Midfield - we lack discipline
Attack - we lack conviction


........................Southwood
..........Morrison, Yiadom, McIntyre
...................Rino ......... Laurent
Camara...............Swift.................Hoilett
.........................Joao, Clarke

Play a bit higher, Yiadom can cover. Spoil in the middle. Get it wide and cross it for the big guys, or Swift and the other winger breaking on the box late. Switch up play by going central for Swift and Joao to drop and play one twos, while Clarke occupies the CBs.

Just make them do different things. Absolute key is to make the oppo CBs work harder and split them, not have them doubled up on Joao the whole time.

[LUX]

Just got two tickets, see you all there.

Y22

[John Smith]

Why do any of you want Hein in net? He is atrocious!

[morganb]

Are Kingsley and Queensley back for this one?

[NathStPaul]

Are Kingsley and Queensley back for this one?

Yes. Hopefully they are both armed and storm the directors box.

Looks a little too attack minded for me. I think we would end up with something similar to Huddersfield where we look good going forward but wide open at the back.
It would certainly need Rino and Laurent to remain very disciplined and not go charging forward.

I quite like Yiadom as a CB. He should be rubbish there, but its generally worked.

Laurent and Rino seemed to be playing one behind the other rather than as a defensive pair/pivot against Bristol. I couldn't really work out what was happening, I think it was more 4-1-1-3-1 than 4-2-3-1. Was shit whatever it was.

No probs with Yids at cb I just don’t we can play two upfront without being shredded

[tidus_mi2]

Honestly think same team as Brizzle but Southwood for Hein and Swift for TDB.
