1st Wizard 0 Posted August 17, 2007 Latest news states we will have no Huckerby, Brellier or Drury. Therefore i predict this will be the starting line-up...

gissing canary 2 Posted August 17, 2007 I agree with the Second one, but I think interestingly maybe play spillane for chadwick, and allow Fozzy to create, as it seems to be what he wants to do? And then Russell and Spillane could do the defensive work, allowing the over laps, which will be used a lot now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faded Jaded Semi Plastic SOB 1,017 Posted August 17, 2007 I am going for 3-1 to City, no idea re the team Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canarychris 0 Posted August 17, 2007 If Brellier isn''t fit i would play Spillane in Midfield with Russell, at least he can tackle. Apart from that the team picks itself, which suggests with 4 players out our squad is far from strong enough.Anyway i predict a 3 - 1 win with Cureton scoring first.

I think he''ll do really well for us!jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

First Jedi 0 Posted August 17, 2007 With Semmy and Lappin as full-backs, Grant might go for 3 centre back and have the full-backs operate as wing-backs... he hinted at doing this in pre-season; Marshall Dion Doc ShacksSemmers Lappers Russers Fozzers Chadders Cuzzers BrozzersNot saying he will or should, just that he might!

I like it. If Grant pulls that one out of the hat, he''ll go up a few notches in my estimation.I think we all dread Safri scoring with a 35-yard exocet, but I think we''ll win 2-0.

Canary Pirate 0 Posted August 18, 2007 I am definitely worried about this game. It is difficult to see the Saints losing 3 on the trot, however, if we get an early goal I can see the confidence draining out of them. A sit on the fence 1 - 1 draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Salopian 1 Posted August 18, 2007 Too many unknowns in player availability - the back four we probably know, the midfield is less certain - will it be three or four?, and the strikers look to be Brown and Cureton.I would like us to win, but I can''t see it with our ability to go missing. If we get a good start, and first goal, then I think 1-1 or 2-2. I think that with their strikers they are likely to score 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rethinking the future 0 Posted August 18, 2007 Whats the betting that Safri scores from a free kick! I think he only ever scored once from a free kick for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
