Yeah, the thinking is we're up against a tough team who don't mind having shots from around the edge of the area, so to restrict their options for that. The plan would be (I'm in goal). For Beany to be on the left and Paul Curtis on the right, with Tony, Hilly and Frew in the middle, basically ruining every attack. Beany and Paul can then have some freedom to join up with you, Crabbeman and one other in midfield whenever we break for an attack. We've not played it before so maybe a game against TVS isn't the best place to debut the strategy, but I just don't want to give them free range against a four man defence without Smurf behind them.

And with so many midfielders out injured or in but carrying injuries at the moment the midfield choice isn't so hard. We've got John S still injured but saying he's alright, Adam out, Paul at right back, so it only leaves Crabbeman, you, John L, Rob and Browny for selection, and Crabbeman's only just back from busting his ribs...
