Seymour and Broomfield up front Cheadle in for Donaldson.
Difficult game, need to keep Brazley quiet.

Out of interest has anyone noticed if there has been any work done at the ground apart from the new pitch?
September 5th is not that far off.

Another potential difficult trip against a team that always expect to do well. Assume no Julian, Grey and Hunt as they presumably are injured. Hope our first choice strikers are available.
Hope for a draw minimum. We have a difficult start with all the away games.

In his interview after the game Mel said that Julian’s back had gone, is this a repeat of last season’s injury, if so he might be out for some time?

Would agree with Tony, we need another striker, yesterday showed how short we are in this department. The current squad looks mid table and we have the added burden of starting the season with seven away games.
It all depends on the budget as has been pointed out.

Lost 1-0, await reports.

Bench full of new players, Bloomfield and Seymour included. Assume Kurran Brown and Whittingham the strikers. Julian starts in goal. Gray not fit enough? Only Hall debut.

I think these thoughts from fellow contributors are spot on and Tony’s is very much in my way of thinking. Having to play all are opening games away, if results don’t go our way, could put pressure on the club for the rest of the season, hopefully my pessimism will be groundless.

The final preseason game, compared with other teams in our division we have played less games than them, perhaps our squad was more settled than others? Might get further insight into Mel’s thinking , but it looks like he will alter team and formation to suit the game. For many of us we will have to...

Likewise. Nice to know how we can pick them up but realise we do have some time before required.
