You're letting yourself down, Nick. Where's the option of a Stuart Beavon hat trick?

 

[Nick]

Have just added it at 2000/1

Imagine if he scores 2!!

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Team would be transformed with Bayliss, Sterling, Kelly anc Willis

I imagine we'll play a stronger team both this game and Saturday. This game might involve wholesale changes at half time, Saturday I expect to be our first choice 11.

 

[Nick]

Watch the Derby match tonight live!

It's a shame Sterling and Bayliss aren't back. If they play their last game on Thursday could they get back to feature on Saturday or is that pushing it?

 

[MatthewWallis]

Well any decent bookies would refund the bet if the player didn't feature...

Hmm, yet Nick mentions the bets IN the thread.

Please don't play 3 at the back.

It's a formation that has success. Just because past cov managers couldn't work it out Doesn't mean robin's should give up if it is something he likes


That said I also hope he plays 4231 and we go for it vs a promotion chasing championship team. Let's see how good we are looking to be this season

It has never had success here though, every single times we've tried it we had to abandon it max 10 games in and then spend the rest of the season chasing lost points.

Plus it's dull watching them pass it between the back 3 for 5 minutes to hoof it when they get pressured anyway

Can we have a bet on it? Just a fake gambler one of course.

 

[Skybluefaz]

Where is best to park for the match tonight?

Diff players and manager in past. Means nothing

Just on the industrial estate main road.

 

[shmmeee]

L1 footballers aren't technical enough for 3 at the back.

433/451 is the best formation for L1, attack is the best form of defence exactly because L1 defenders aren't great technically. Solid back 4 then an ability to throw men forward when attacking is what's needed IMO.

 

[SBAndy]

Any idea what kind of time the teamsheet will be out? I'll probably decide whether or not to go on the back of that.

 

[Grendel]

Mowbray you mean?

 

[Hobo]

Corrected it for you.

 

[covcity4life]

Mowbray you mean?

Well is he a past cov manager einstein?

Pressley tried it too

You will get a betting credit for that.

If its any consolation I also think it's fucking stupid.

I am also tempted to go tonight, if it's going to be a proper team.

No injuries. Pitch likely to be like concrete. Weather --silly hot. Players still missing. Wouldn't judge the season on tonight, whether we win or lose by a few (more likely the latter!). P.S. just saw a bloke in a City top in Bakewell (whistled the Eton Boating song as I neared him, but he seemed more interested in a bargain he'd seen in a shop!)
