I have wondered, whether Randall will be available or have "a bit of a twinge"...if the latter, I might be a candidate for confirmarion bias...

I also wonder about Ric, which imo would be a shame, because as much as he might be associated with plenty of tippy tappy, he's been pretty decent too until this year when he lost the captaincy...

Looks like Big Dave and Daeshon Lawrence will be involved today, as they’re absent from the U19s.

ON the preview from the club they've flagged up to a dozen out unavailable, yet listed 10. Presumably, they've missed off a few.

Morley, Sheehan, Osei-Tutu, Adeboyejo, Toal, Forrester, Santos, CMG, Etete, Sharples-Ahmed, Johnston (childbirth) and JDC (suspended)

I wonder if the others that haven't been mentioned, Randall and Schon, are awaiting late tests and may feature.



As for those that are out unavailable. I'd like to see Santos and Johnston back next week. The rest can recuperate for next season. Etete can be sent back to his parent club already. Johnston gets the best wishes brigade (prioritising childbirth, almost a plus) and JDC can hopefully enjoy a rest.

Either way, we're missing an injured goalkeeper to really field an unavailable team, which leaves us with:

Baxter
Jones, Thomason, Murphy, Schon(?)
Lolos, Randall(?), Matete
McAtee, Collins, Abimbola

Bench: Southwood / Coleman(?) / Hutchinson(?) / and the yoof.



It'll be alright shite on the night.

Forino and Dempsey I think are fit too.

I suspect Schuey's hoping Collins can do a fair bit of heavy lifting when the subs come on. Maybe that's his test for the tail end of the season. Today he'll have to put a shift in so we can finish strong. Maybe this is the final test for Collins prior to the summer transfer dealings.

I'm not confident with today's result, but it'll be interesting to see the newbies come on.

Peterborough like to score a lot, so this may be a battering.


Reading & Leyton Orient both winning. So we're mathematically out of it, as opposed to needing a 25 goal swing.

I suspect that if he needs to raise money or squad spaces then Collins is maybe the only one you could sell for any sort of money. To some dupe coming down who has too much to spend. So there is that. He also has been awful of late though not alone there.

Going off the fans going today there's quite a few in fancy dress. Plenty of bananas, Ali G, the Mexicans, etc.

Maybe one to add to the season's high points as we have so few.

I assume your mate's surname is neither Baxter nor Collins :lol:

But seriously - this is why it can mean so much. To every member of the Academy.

Nah, Sean Hogan. :-) He's a defender, so the Worthy love in might not last very long! :lol:

Just seen our youth team squad has lost today, presumably because most of the talent is on the bench for the first team. That defeat may cause them to lose out on the title apparently. Would seem a harsh way for the youth to lose that as a result of our first teamers not turning up to do their job.

By the way, Sean Hogan (defender), Harrison Rice (defender) and Daeshon Lawrence (striker) make it 15 different youth-teamers who've made the bench this season. (Abimbola you know; today's other bench kid midfielder Harley Irwin was also on the bench vs Fleetwood).

That was a poor play from McAtee. Defender shows him a decent amount of the ball and McAtee is caught on his heels.

Better from McAtee with really good passing from Schon.

John McGinlay hoping Randall getting boos will help spur him onto a good performance. He's been getting booed most of the season and it hasn't helped.

He looks up for it. Iles made the point that Randall has had success before running on past a target man - maybe just maybe that's a role for him (when we get a target man)

Why's Lolos taking a free kick for Randall to get on the end of, rather than the other way around?
