Give sarge and snitch a rest, give walker a chance,keep holmes and thompson in as they earnt it.

Still a strong enough to team to win it (imho) but gives some kids a chance and some of the older guys a rest.

Edited to take into account cup tied loan players.

That will need changing. I'm fairly sure 3 of them players won't be permitted. Thus I wouldn't rest anyone tbh.

And RB is injured.

All three loanees are cup-tied. TM said so in Friday's post-match.

Dont think holmes deserves to be dropped, think he earnt his place in the team, davies is no worse than clayton and will benefit from the game time (and being cup tied wouldnt have a game this week if not).

=#8040FFTbh I totally forgot about Holmes, Walker & Davies, Clayton out Holmes or Davies in in that case, Walker for Higgins too, at least he would offer something.

1. Thompson
2. Wainwright
3. Shenton
4. Evans
5. Dixon
6. McGoldrick
7. Chase
8. Higgins
9. Netherton
10. Huby
11. Jones
12. Walker
13. Westerman

Subs: Holmes, Davies, Jackson, Hudson .

Think Thompson is a starter now,pick the strongest team available, and have some kids on the bench(like Holmes and Davies).

A good cup run, (and abit of luck) could save our season.

If I had my own way, I'd start with a full strength team and a few kids on the bench. A strong win could kickstart our season, especially with three winnable games after this.

Firstly, never underestimate lower league opponents, so no players to be rested. Pick strongest team possible which i think is:-

Thompson
Arundel
Shenton
Clayton
Wainwright
Mcgoldrick
Chase
Sargeant
Hudson
Jackson
Jones
Snitch
Westerman

Netherton
Higgins
Huby
Holmes

Whos RB?

Rob Burrow? Ryan Boyle?



Or a sensible answer...... Ryan Brierley

Matterson said we should have two bodies back from injury - my guess Evans and Dixon which will alter the backline a bit.

widders?

Who?

Rest as many 1st teamers as you like.

We don't need to, they're all well rested!!!

Walk in the park then

Not in the slightest. Even with the booze brothers back and 1 or 2 from injury. We lose our loan players for this game. I'm hoping Barrow don't play to their potential if i'm honest. Halifax were quality last season and if you play to that standard you'll win because right now, we're in a rut and I'm struggling to see the light at the end of the dark tunnel...
