I think we need to go all out and win on Saturday. More importantly we need to score - at the very least one goal - from open play.

The pressure is building now so I'd like Ollie to show some cojones of steel by picking an attack-minded side, intent on scoring goals.

Parking the bus and hoping to scrape a 0-0 bore draw just won't cut it. As fans we need to be entertained and vitally, believe that there are goals in this team. Easier said than done at present, admittedly.

I'd be tempted to go 4-4-1-1

                           Macca

Preston, Pollock, Waterfall, Hendrie (if fit?)

Edwards, Rose, Clifton, Tilley/Wright

                          Williams

                          Windsor


I also think we need to give both Scannell and Moshni a proper run out in a league game sooner rather than later.

Keep the faith. UTM!

Not doing IFollow so obviously not seen the team actually play this season, but from what people have seen do we have one midfielder that gets beyond the forwards making runs , or are they all defensive minded playing sideways balls and not willing to take a chance and ge5 forward?

Until the team get a proper Captain playing as an out field player then we will struggle, last night against Hull it was obvious to me there is nobody running the team on the pitch, you can't manage the players as Captain if your not in the mix with them.

                                Macca


Hendrie.      Waterfall.        Pollock.        Preston


            Clifton.         Rose.       Williams


           Edwards     Windsor.       Gibson


Preston needs to slot back into a back four, Hopefully Hendrie will be fit otherwise it will be Hewitt who was fit enough for the bench on Tuesday. Williams, Windsor and Edwards HAVE to be in the team otherwise we have nothing going forward.  Ive chosen that front 3 as that is a minor amend to what we played vs Cheltenham and has been our most effective attacking performance thus far.  Also welcoming back the industry and workrate of Clifton

Think we need to give four at the back ago with 3 in midfield.

For me;

                   Macca
Hendrie Pollock Waterfall Preston
       Clifton Rose Williams
Windsor     Gibson      Edwards
