Front 3 tonight

[HebburnMackem]

There's an air of people disrespecting Rochdale here. Bolton at home is still pretty fresh in my memory. We also scraped past Southend and Tranmere. It has to be to the strongest available team.

Yup and it will bite us in the arse

 

[Father Jack Hackett]

Power and Wyke out. Lafferty and Scowen in.

Probably worth resting Hume tonight as well tbh.

I thought it was arguably Wyke's best game for us, bar his miss and Power and Dobson ran the show second half imo.

Lafferty or Wyke. Like being asked if you want toe punted in the temple or walloped in the swingers

We only beat 1 team when Gooch was out anarl. That team was Southend and it was only 1-0. For my Gooch has to play every game.

Is that all season?!

Nah not sure about all season but it is only the 1 under Parky.

I’ll look into the season stats.

 

[Hongkongphooey]

I’d start Semenyo

Why?

Still. Your point stands.

 

[Deleted member 31333]

@Howard the Duck yeah it’s all season. Mind the only game he’s missed pre injury vs Tranmere is Wycombe away where we lost 1-0. He was an unused sub.

 

[TopCat]

If they are ready should be Watmore, Lafferty and Semenyo.
Big game on Saturday and these 3 should be able to put Rochdale to the sword and give the regulars a break.
Scowen and John should also be starting

I'd rather we played our strongest team, had the game won by 60 mins and then "rest" the front

 

[Secret Visage]

Bar injury hopefully it's the same 11 by the Parkie .

We've spent enough and had enough time to find better though mate.

I agree. Have the usual lads on the bench in case we need them and give the new lads a bit of game time for fitness and to show what they can do from the start instead of off the bench.

We're in the business end of the season and we're likely to lose some of the usual first team at some point through injuries and suspensions, so it's good to have others snapping at their heels that we can be sure are up to speed already if need be. Also with us having a lot of matches in a short space of time it's good to be able to give a bit of rest here and there to keep the players on their toes and prevent them getting too fatigued, burned out or complacent.

I'd probably go with all five of the changes you've proposed.

 

[dave hedgehog]

Aren’t we at home ?

sure Stadium of light is our home ground ?

Ah didnt realise with home match just gone

That's definitely not my password . I have no explanation as to what's happened there.

Break from what exactly?
These are highly paid professional sportsmen who only have to run around for a couple hours of a saturday and sometimes one night a week.
Struggling here like.
