With all due respect, I’m certain that neither set of players will give a feck what Marc Iles writes.

Re: We Must Beat-a-borough - Away v Peterborough, Sat Apr 27th 12:30

The ‘general on the pitch’ thing I feel is a bit overstated. Iredale also seems to be a vocal leader who battles as hard as anyone. I think there are many ways to be "general on the pitch" which don't necessarily point to over the top tackles and shouting/pointing.. If you think about Kante or Modr...

Thomason hasn’t been playing well but still is far more effective than Dempsey has been. So I’m not sure on the logic there. Dempsey becomes invisible too often.
He’s not been far more effective than Dempsey recently. I don’t think you’d have many of our fans in your corner for this one.

Re: We Must Beat-a-borough - Away v Peterborough, Sat Apr 27th 12:30

Thomason & Jones really poor yesterday, I think Thomason needs a rest and Jones although he's one of Evatt's favourites has been poor all season in the RCB position. I know he's decent going forward but Toal is a much better RCB and we need to stop conceding so many goals & IMO Jones is a big reaso...

I'm not that fussed about whether we can stick 18 past Utd kids and convince ourselves that makes a great team. The time is now. The time is here. Put up or shut up.
That game really left an impression on you, eh?

Re: We Must Beat-a-borough - Away v Peterborough, Sat Apr 27th 12:30

Regardless of what division we're in, the defence needs looking at in the summer. Yes, we've missed so many gilt-edged chances but we're second top scorers. Pompey and Derby have gone up conceding 10+ fewer. I’m confused as to why Jones is first choice, but next season presumably it’d be a three of...

Absolutely delighted to get Barnsley and I’d wager our players will be as well.

Thomason’s surely played himself out of the starting lineup for next week.

I’d sub Sheehan, Santos and Collins shortly.

Even though we twatted Oxford last time, I’d probably prefer we got Lincoln.

Does Thomason make our best XI at present? He’s been rubbish the past few weeks.

I'm not sure on Peterborough's marketing. Posh! Bosh!

What's that all about?
It’s John Fisher, father of heavyweight boxer Johnny Fisher, whose catchphrase is ‘Bosh!’

Maghoma a big miss, but at least gives him a nice rest before the playoffs.

Re: We Must Beat-a-borough - Away v Peterborough, Sat Apr 27th 12:30

Hopefully we can relax and play our best stuff in the knowledge that 2nd is a long shot. It'd certainly do us no harm to put in a dominant performance in advance of next weekend.

Will the coach be out for this one?

Re: We Must Beat-a-borough - Away v Peterborough, Sat Apr 27th 12:30

Baxter

Jones Santos Iredale

Sheehan

JDC Maghoma Thomason Ogbeta

Charles Collins


The above is on the proviso that all those players are fully fit.

If Derby are winning at HT then sub off Santos, Sheehan, Maghoma, JDC and Collins.

Re: The Nostradamus file....

I gotta say (in a non-gammon way), that we'd be absolutely gutted if Derby lost and we didn't get what we needed after playing a weak side. If I were resting a few - and I'm not against resting some who might be tired/carrying niggles, I might want to keep them in close proximity to the bench, on t...
