Alright fellas?
I suspect we'll put out pretty much our 1st team squad tonight with one or two key changes. Things haven't been going brilliantly for us - primarily cos our back 4 seem to have forgotten that they are actually professional footballers and not circus clowns
I think (if fit) Les Pogliacomi will be in goal instead of Mark Crossley and Neal Trotman may well play instead of John Thompson alongside Sean Gregan in the middle of the back 4.
I also suspect Kelvin Lomax (one of our youngsters) might play at left back instead of Ryan Bertrand (Chelsea loanee).
We've got some injuries to key players (Neil Kilkenny MF, Mark Allott MF, Michael Ricketts ST, Dean Smalley ST, Lewis Alessandra ST, Stefan Stam CB) at the moment so we need all the opportunities we can get to have our makeshift first choice side playing together.
To clarify the Lee Hughes situation - he IS currently suspended. He wasn't ready to play at Burnley having only signed the day before and he was free to play on Saturday as his suspension kicked in from the 2nd to the 9th I think.
I'm looking forward to tonights game, the Crown is a new ground for me.
Best of luck for the rest of the season and all that, but I hope we give you a right drilling tonight (we need it at the minute)!
