Curtis Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 After two consecutive excellent away wins with the same starting line up, it would be great to remain the same again, but with Matt Lench suspended for this match, there will be some changes. What do you see the changes being? We won this fixture 3-0 at home at a similar time of year last season with an attendance of 345 (at Holloways Park). But St Ives one league win so far this season was 1-0 on the opening day of the season at Weymouth, so it could be a tricky fixture. I am predicting a win for us though and an attendance double that of last season, so 690. What are your thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaxtonLee Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I think it will be interesting to see how the squad is managed across Saturday and Monday, I would imagine most will get game time. For Saturday, I'd go with... Turner, Jackman, Wells, Nisbit, Hollis, Togwell, Dunn, Harris, Dobson, Williams, Flood Lench back in on Monday with Fraser and Wadkins and Webb (if fit) getting a look in. Wonder if we will see Inns? Would be good to hit 700 v St Ives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlenSTFC Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 If it ain't broke and all that... obviously they'll be one enforced change on Saturday but if we win and play well we should stick with the same team at Farnborough. I'm confident of a win v St. Ives (635) and a tight win at Farnborough (575). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark44 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I think Brad will get a chance on Saturday. Looked fairly sharp in his small stint at Hereford and with Manny playing a lot he could probably do with a rest......I also wonder how long before we see Gav James play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also say that Gav James will start on Saturday or Monday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curtis Posted August 25, 2017 Author Share Posted August 25, 2017 It's unfortunate Josh Jackman isn't available tomorrow. On the strength of his last two matches I thought there was a distinct possibility he would establish himself permanently in the starting line up, but whoever starts at right back tomorrow may have a great game and push him back down the pecking order again.

Windsor Rebel Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Probably Sean Fraser at RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When there's competition for places that's the risk a player takes when he has to miss a game/s. Looking at his Twitter feed looks like Floody will be missing games in September and October.

Nope Floody won't be missing any games, unless there is a replay in the FA Cup, he has booked his trips around the football, as he was unable to go away in the summer due to a new job.

For me we have not been playing our best option in this position. If Fraser plays RB that will be corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously that's your personal opinion onegolfer. IMO both Sean and Josh bring different merits/strengths to the team so almost impossible to play one off against the other.

Others will certainly see other things. The person next to me at this afternoons game will see things differently to me. Anyway, the important thing is that we get three points even if ones favourite players don't play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
