Owing to being secure in our playoff position, I'm expecting Hursty to ring the changes on Sunday. Can't see the likes of Amos, Holohan, Fox, Taylor playing. Wonder if he'll give Macca a whirl. You'd have suspected Sousa and Cropper would've played as to give Efete and Scannell a rest but suddenly they've become fundamental to the playoffs.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Because we are still capable of finishing higher in the league I would expect Hurst to still pick his strongest team.

Strongly disagree that Hurst will prioritise trying to get 5th over getting the squad in the best shape for the play offs.

I think the big question is whether or not Mcatee plays. Obviously we don't want him picking up an injury before the play-offs but without missing a few games, would he have scored a couple more on Tuesday?

The chances of 5th are so remote it’s not even going to enter his thinking. It needs a Town win, a Notts County defeat AND a 7 goal swing in our favour. Our chances of 5th ended with Waterfall’s mad minute against Maidenhead.

It'd take us to win, Notts County to lose plus a 7 goal swing for us to finish any higher. Below it would take us to lose, Chesterfield to win plus a 4 goal swing for us to finish any lower, so I reckon we're pretty much nailed on for a 6th place finish.

                       McKeown

  Cropper.  Smith.    Goundry.    Crookes

Braithwaite.    Coke.    Burgess.  Abrahams

            Essel.        Diesereuvwe


Id run something like this unless we have youth cover for Cropper and Smith.
Nice send off for Macca too

We can finish higher, but for very little material gain. Would you swap McAtee/Taylor/Amos for playing at home to County rather than away?

If we were trying to reach or hold onto 3rd spot, then there might be a case for it, but the difference between 5/6/7 is negligible. Ideal chance to give a run out to squad players and hopefully Raikhy if he is fit.
