"A black ram is tupping your white ewe". Derby (A)

[LeverEnd]

To be honest - I'd look for him to play the team he thinks he's going to run with (injuries notwithstanding) - We don't get much of a break in February. We started with Liverpool at home, we also play:

Derby (a)
Boro (a)
Forest (a)
Watford (h)
Fulham (h)
Brighton (h)

So I think he might as well get them in there and bloodied. If we had an injury free squad, this would still be a toughie.

Balls to that, we've got enough injuries. I'd prefer them just to be metaphorically blooded.

Shit I'm turning into thebish!

That'll teach me to be watching the rugby as I type!

I'm in

Me to, any idea how many tickets we have sold

@OfficialBWFC: As of Friday afternoon we have sold 600 tickets for the game at the iPro.

[TANGODANCER]

Beating the Taffs at Rugby tonight has filled me with optimism. I think we'll upset another apple-cart and grab a win here. Yes, that's what we'll do.

[DJBlu]

Thought the exact thing last night.
Today though realism is kicking in.
Going to be a tough ask.

Interesting to see how many new signings he throws in to the action today, I would like to see:

Lonergan
McNaughton - Mills - Wheater - Ream
Feeney - Danns - Vela - Bannan
Le Fondre - Clough

Eidur needs a rest. Is Danns available for this game? If not throw in Slavchev.

[Vertigo]

Danns is suspended from the Liverpool game. Interesting to see who he picks in his place. Hope it's not Trotter.

Do you think it will be? I do.

I wouldn't let Trotter anywhere near this starting 11. He's too prone to mistakes, in recent weeks he's cost us a fair few goals.

[Abdoulaye's Twin]

Guess it depends how match fit the newbie midfielders are and whether Lennie thinks any of the others need a rest - I don't think Trotter has played as much, so he might be tempted to put him in and rest someone else.

I hope not mind..

If he goes on for 90 minutes, he still won't have played much...

[TANGODANCER]

I'm agreeing with the ones who think he'll play Trotter in the vain hope (make that very vain) that he'll somehow emulate Pratley and become a prince from a frog. Can't see that happening, but I reckon he'll be in there anyway, at least to start with. Hope I'm wrong.

[Worthy4England]

Six of our new recruits are in the matchday squad...

[Prufrock]

Who's dropping Dervite?!

Le Fondre for Moxey and Bannan for Danns I reckon

[adamworthy2002]

And Trotter starts.

From that shot that /ahem Dozza /ahem took, he's not half the striker that Mills is - flirt him off.

Has he played at all?
