I would say that it’s pretty unlikely we’ll start with a 442. None of our wide options (Vernam, Eisa, Wilson, Khan) are very defensively minded.


I think you are probably right, I suspect it will be 433. I’d just like to see us find a way to play 2 strikers in home games.

Sorry but just Can't see the goals needed for top end of the league being scored in that team. Hope I'm wrong of course


Expect the goals to come from wide and midfield.

Both Vernam and Eisa have good goal scoring records at this level for wide players. Kahn also scores goals.

You'd also expect Clifton to continue to score regularly due to how often he gets in goalscoring positions.
I also think Holohan will play more than expected.

Only seen Rose briefly and at his previous clubs but he will create space for others. Clever runs and little flick ons for willing runners.

I think Vernam will be our top scorer with about 15.

I like the OP's line up. But both keepers worry me

I'm surprised people haven't included Khan Holloran or Waterfall in their selections

Waterfall plays today with Holohan as a sub. No news of Khan though, unless he's been rested.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

                                                       Eastwood

Mullarkey (if fit enough of course otherwise Efete)    Rodgers     Maher   Glennon

                   Harry                     Conteh                    Khouri/Hunt (not bothered which one starts)

                    Eisa                     Rose                     Vernam


It's very simple for me, we've looked our best in the preseason in a 433 with this general squad, playing the high press, pass and move football we were treated to.


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

The side that started v Lincoln would do me.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.
