I think PH is taking a massive gamble. If we were comfortably going to make the play offs, then yeah, have a look at other players/formations, but if we lose and then don't make the play offs, he should have his head on a pole outside BP.

Nothing is certain yet and the best side should have turned out 'til we are certain of he play offs, then have a rest. Modern footballers are Nancy's.


I don't know where I  on this selection , on the one hand it excites me , but given the scenario above ( unlikely ) it's scary
Come on town
Sounds like we're doing ok

The bottom 2 won't.


Doubt 3rd bottom would either.

Very good selection.  A tired first team might have meant lost points today, Saturday and next week.  He is gambling on today but playing safe for the next few games while giving the chance for someone to shine.


Agree totally, lets hope it's a gamble that pays off & everyone will hail PH as a tactical genius, I think a point from this game amid such a busy schedule will be acceptable.

This isn't just looking at other players like a preseason friendly. The "best" team is not a set 11 players. Disley is a better player than Paddy IMO, but a fresh Paddy is a better player than a knackered Disley.

I wonder who the underdogs are between the mighty Woking and Cambridge?

The back 4 all coming if from layoffs is my only concern, given the lack of experienced cover on the bench.

agree mate

i understand 4 games in a week means we have to rotate the team a bit but 10 changes is taking liberties imo. Its not like we have sown up a play off spot yet- we still need points. 4 or 5 changes maybe. Once we have enough points then players can have their rest.

if its not going well there's nothing on the bench either who are going to change it- thought we could have put a couple of the rested experienced players on the bench.

if we lose this there will be some backlash- if PH wasnt happy about fans reactions in recent weeks he better grow some thicker skin cos it will nothing compared to what will follow.

Ten changes?..... Blimey! This has surprised me. I could understand if we'd already secured a play off place but I would've preferred to have seen the side that's been getting us decent results tonight. Rest a couple maybe, but TEN? Make sure we get in the play offs then give a few fringe players a game for the last couple of games then revert back to playing a full strength side when it matters, surely?

Anyway.... Come on Town!!!


You fill up my senses,
Like a barrel of Tetley's,
Like a packet of Woodbine,
Like a good pinch of snuff,
Like a night out in Cleethorpes,
Like a greasy chip butty,
O, Super Black and Whites,
Come fill me again
Na na naa naa naa naaaa TOWN!!
Na na naa naa na na naaaa
Na na naa naa na naaa naaa
Na na naa naa naa naaaaaaa!!!!!

Totally disagree. This is nowhere near our best 11, which is a massive gamble at this stage of the season.
