Looks like a diamond. One of the formations most dependable on attacking full backs - he’s put 2 35 year olds in.


Or Parrot wide

Yep, you couldn't possibly ask younger players to play two games in 3 days whereas apparently that's perfectly fine for 35+ year olds.

I think Parrott makes a bigger impact than either of those fullback changes though, so all is not lost!


I think he's looked at the mud, and called for the men. Shame!

Nightmare. Said he was brave on Saturday. Full backs played well. This is a joke.

Matheson and Kenlock were two of our best players on Saturday - naturally they’re dropped. Has Lambert fallen out with Thomas already?

All he had to do was Chambers for McGuinness. Why does he always have to make it complicated?

ETA - Would have accepted Bishop for Dozzell too. Oh, and Edwards in for Sears. But otherwise...

The one time you want it the same make the players left out work hard for their shirt and keep that momentum from Sat, he chanters it! The bloke is upside down!

Isn't it? Such a positive performance from our full-backs and now he is returning to the defence that had let in 3 goals against Swindon at home.

No pace out wide and two forwards who like a cross or two.


No pace anywhere in fairness.

Hopefully he will get back to playing Dozzell behind Downes too.

12 games in 6 weeks people!! on 18:19 - Feb 9 with 1188 viewsunstableblue

I actually get SOME of those changes (for a change!) on 18:10 - Feb 9 by unstableblue

Tonight is going to be grim on that surface... its going to be a battle (see Lee Bowyer comments on the surface).

Matheson was much better second half when he moved onto the better Ipswich pitch wing.

You need experience in games like this. Ward and Chambo give that, and its a chance for them to make up for poor recent form.

Flynn stays which is good, and Teddy and Dozzell more advanced.

Also this kind of game suits Norwood, and he's looking sharper.

WHAT I DON'T agree with is this - IF YOU'RE PLAYING DEEPER SET FULL BACKS, you need more dynamic wide men, Judge is slow and was better in the number 8, than wide. Parrot was also doing well down the middle. Edwards would be better.

Anyway lets see how it goes - but certainly that is not a WTAF selection as some suggest. Matheson and Kenlock no doubt back for Shrews - well lets hope so.

But let me repeat - tonight's surface is going to be a nightmare.


From Blackpool to Fleetwood that's a Sat to Tues over 12 games, repeating every Sat and Tues.... there has to be an element of rotation...

But time will tell if replacing a couple of full backs who had given us so much, will wreck any progress

I'm not joining the chorus of upset about the full backs, on a crap pitch, muddy and frozen then experience makes sense. Not sure about the midfield though.

The full backs would be fine if we had any width at all ahead of them. We don't have any width at all ahead of them.

FFS. One step forward and then two back. There goes our fresh pace down the flanks from full back.


He wants the sack ..... pay off greedy f#cker .

And that's what I said in my post - which you downvoted! or is that just the reflex again?

Full backs was OK in selection for me - then I stated:

What was that about not chopping and changing Paul, and after one of our best performances of the season...
I'll support the team but seriously, either have a position and stick to it, or don't come out with utter guff.

Not too concerned about Chambers and award coming back as I guess we’ll be defending more tonight.

The players ahead look narrow but purely depends on where they are going to play.


We've had one good(ish) performance in 3 months. Utter madness to mess about with it.

The downvote was for this not being a WTAF line up. I think it is, based on the absence of any wide players and us therefore relying on two ancient full backs for any sort of width. It's also a side with literally zero pace against a Peterbrough side that's usually fairly mobile.

I would more like to know why 2 upfront is now acceptable (assuming that is what it is) given we had the players to do that earlier.

Pitch looks awful as you say.
