Buchs didn't fare particularly well against him either, and fell for his tricks in getting himself sent off when we played them at home last. In his interview yesterday Jimmy said he was sticking with Bunney, so he needs to put someone that side who will help him out defensively.

Maybe we'll see Foley play that side in front of Bunney?
That’s not a bad shout to be honest - it sounds like the kind of cautious thing that jimmy would do where he tries to anticipate what the opposition are going to do rather than take the handbrake off and try to cause them problems.  Having said that can you imagine the carnage if we were to go with bunney at left back and say berto at left wing!

I thought Boris looked quite sharp in his brief appearance, I'd be tempted to go 4-3-3.

                     O'Donnell

Facey      Poole     Taylor    Turnbull

                    O'Toole
        McWilliams        Foley

      
      Van Veen  Luckassen    Mathis

I'm really hoping the players surprise us and put in a shift tonight as I fear the crowd have just about lost all patience. It won't take much for the atmosphere to turn toxic but coincidentally it won't take much for the crowd to be on the players sides either.

Over to the players.

Morning...welcome to Poet's corner, midweek special...

Here we go again, it’s another Tuesday night
Praying for a miracle, for some kind of fight
Rotherham came, they saw and took the points with ease
And Town fans once again ended up far from pleased

Early exits from the stands and more boos at the end
It seems like it’s driving young Jimmy round the bend
But it’s his job to put right, his job to fix
What’s he got left in his bag of tricks?

The Shrews come to town with their eyes on promotion
But if they come and take the points there’ll be one heck of a commotion
Unless the Town show us some kind of life
And show that they can take us out of this strife

All we ask is for some sort of proper formation
With players in their right places, in their correct station
And not one of us will even find it the slightest but funny
If Jimmy persists on the left side with poor Bunney

What’s left in the tank? Have we got it inside?
To summon up the strength to show some kind of pride?
To those in the stands, let’s sing and stand tall
Let’s be with the Town with every kick of the ball

There’s still time to turn it, still time to ensure
That League One is our fate, that hope is our cure
So come in your droves, let’s alter the course
And show Jimmy Floyd that we can still be a force

                     O'Donnell

Facey      Poole     Taylor    Turnbull

                    O'Toole
        McWilliams        Foley

      
      Van Veen  Luckassen    Mathis

Would go 4-4-2 with Grimes or Bunney at LM
Just vV and Lucky up front. There is no winger? Thought that Poole unavailable?

For us out of Towners, apparently we are the featured match on Talksport2 tonight.

Thanks for that.

Whatever the line up I'm going for a scrappy 1-0 win with JJoT scoring from a Grimes set piece.

O'Donnell

Facey      Taylor      Turnbull   Buchs

            Grimms     McWilliams

Aryibi       JJOT     Foley    Bunney

                            VvV

This might be an odd selection but I just have a feeling that Bunney playing left wing infront of Buchs might just be a very good thing. Also prefer Facey to Maloney and Ariybi ahead of berto, he has been very dangerous and a threat of late. The team could easily be changed to 4-4-2 by subbing Foley/McWilliams for Lucky/Mathis/Long.

You'd play 12 players?

I would go for the following team:

                     O'Donnell

         Barnett - Taylor - Turnbull
Facey                                       Bunney

          Pereira - JJOT - McWilliams

            van Veen - Luckasson

I suspect JFH will play something familar:

                  O'Donnell

 Facey - Taylor - Turnbull - Bunney

 Pereira - Foley - Grimes - Ariyibi

                      JJOT

                  Luckasson

Either team will probably get beat but I think the first one stands a better chance

Bunney has to be rested and I've no faith in Powell. He may have made a couple of decent runs against Rotherham but generally his off the ball movement and defensive abilities are crap.
I like Moloney but Facey is a better defender and we can't afford to give Shrewsbury anything.
Time to recall Poole and push Turnbull to left back where he has performed adequately.

We need someone who can tackle in midfield, hence McWilliams and JJ, pushing Grimes into a more advanced playmaker role.
Then play our most experienced and hopefully most effective 3 up front.

With Lucky, Long and Hoskins on the bench to freshen things up for the last 20-30 minutes.

So I would play

                  O'Donnell
Facey    Poole     Taylor    Turnbull
             McWilliams  JJOT
                Grimes
  Periera       VW        Aryibi

But of course there is zero chance of JFH picking a team like this.

Agree with all that. Except Poole. He's unavailable and with the Wales youth squad.

I would have thought a league 1 relegation battle should take precedence over kiddies football.

I reckon he'll go with:

                  O'Donnell

 Facey  Taylor  Turnbull  Bunney

  Ariyibi McWilliams  Grimes   Powell

                      JJOT

                       VV (assuming Long is still injured)

I’m sorry, this season is over for me.

I’d obviously like to see us get a win or draw, but if we lose I don’t want it to be one or two nil.

I hope we get tonked 8 or 9 nil, something to get on the sport headlines and ruin the CVs of our loanees. Embarrass JFH into resigning.

THE never fails to amaze. After the criticism JFH as received for his team selections, we have folk on here selecting a starting 12 and players that are away on international duty!
