king canary 8,644 Posted October 19, 2023 Can you name the team from this 2-2 draw vs Leeds in 2006 from their initials. I was unable to work out what formation we were playing here so I've just listed the players in the order BBC Sport shows them... RG CF GD JS AD AH SC CR PM DH LM Subs... PG YS DE JJ RE 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robert N. LiM 5,944 Posted October 19, 2023 Struggling with JS and CR from the XI at the moment, got the others. Subs are taking longer to come. PG and JJ I know but can't summon the rest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PG and JJ I know but can't summon the rest Strangely I got the subs quicker than some of the first team, although I did initially get the wrong JJ…. JS also had me confused as I was trying to think of a right back… 2 minutes ago, king canary said: SC was a defender who seemed to be in midfield for this game. PG was a keeper RE a striker SC did play a bit in midfield for us I think. Presumably 433 or a diamond midfield with PM at the top. CF at right back presumably.

Someone suggested Doc might have been upfront with McVeigh and Hucks on the wings? But if Simon Charlton was in midfield you have to wonder why as we had Safri and Etuhu on the bench.

I do remember a point that season when we ended up playing the Doc up front, which says it all really. In which case it would have been Charlton and Fleming at the back. I can't remember this specific game though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
