Is it time for Hamish ?

Quoted from grimsby pete

If Palmer is still injured for the Barnet game,

Should Hurst start with Hamish ?

Jolley did not work and Hannah keeps missing chances,

So lets see what Watson can do please Paul,

Another thing might be put LJL on the wing and play both Hamish and Palmer if fit,

Thoughts ?

All that really matters is what Hurst is likely to do, and he's more likely to wear a grass skirt on Saturday than move LJL to the wing and play 3 up front.
In all likelihood, he will do very little. You could argue the case for replacing or moving Clay, Arnold, Jolley, LJL, Mackreth but he probably won't. Hamish should probably be given a chance, as should McLaughlin, but they might get a few minutes if they're lucky. Palmer will be back in if fit, as will Brown, and if not...expect pretty much the same system and team I'd say.

In my opinion the side would look a lot stronger with Aza and a fully firing Neilson in it. If those two had stayed we should have signed Palmer and left the other two at home. Personally I don't why everyone says "Hannah has lost it" or "Give Hannah a few games". Look at it. Missed 2 sitters in a week, scores but is offside, which is unacceptable, surely a professional footballer should be able to time their runs better. Lenny is probably a better finisher and he is stronger, links the play better, quicker, better in the air, holds the ball.up well, and scares defenders skinless. Pittman and Palmer are also better at everything than Hannah and Hamish looks better in the air and a cleverer footballer than Hannah. What is the point of him?

If all are fit play,

McKeown

Magnay
Toto
Pearson
Robertson

MacKreth
Disley
Brown
Arnold

Lenny
Palmer

Bench: Parslow, McLaughlin, Jolley, Pittman, Watson.

Watson has certainly shown a few good touches in the brief time he has had on the pitch but, from what Hurst has said, they don't seem to think his fitness is up to the mark and he'll obviously be pretty inexperienced as regards the game in this country.

That said, you'd still think he ought to be given half an hour somewhere at some point to see how he does. Let's hope we're coasting at 3-0 up in a game before too long so he can be called on to take a chance!

How long does it take to get fit though? He looked about as fit as your average bloke from the pub before the Guiseley game but that was nearly 4 months ago. Not having a reserve team (or not playing him in the trophy) probably doesn't help I suppose.

Why sign players and very rarely play them? Baffles me!

Loosing faith very rapidly  with it all . We all have ideas of who we would like to see and the formations to play , changing things at half time and when to bring subs on . However we aren't  the manager , but when it's so blindingly obvious to the majority fans I start questioning  my loyalty and sanity of to why I put myself through the ringer week in week out .
We don't know what goes on behind closed doors but ,  being a paying customer I just want value for money .

Unfortunately we didn't see enough examples of " a fully firing Neilson ". Both he and Aza started to lose interest and that was nothing to do with selection but their own personal attitudes.

We have got to take advantage of Barnet being without Akinde,

We have to play 2 strikers, LJL will be one,

I would like the other to be Palmer but if he is unfit then Hamish,

Failing that start with Hannah and take him off at half time,

When  he has missed 3 easy chances and been offside 20 times,

Then bring Hamish on for the 2nd half.

I'd have thought LJL/Hannah will be the starting pairing, assuming that Palmer and Pittman aren't fit.

If that doesn't work out, it would be nice to see Watson getting 30 minutes or so, but that seems unlikely.
