Wow! That is one brave team selection. Page will live or die by that in 90 minutes. I fear it will be the latter.

[valiantsireno]

In fairness, o connor has been abysmal in the last 3 games. Gave the penalty away at sheff united, got Neal sent off and a penalty away at orient and a woeful ball for colchesters 2nd on friday.

 

 

Duffy, robbo and dicko at the back is a terrifying prospect all the same.

[For Us All]

He's dropped our best player???

 

If this doesn't come off he's lost my support. Madness.

 

In my opinion Marshall and O'Connor were our two best players on Friday,don't understand why he's left Oaky out at all?:puzzled:

[fairportnick]

His comments were regarding another poster who wasn't even involved in a conversation with him' date=' he's a pillock but feel free to side with that loon if you like![/quote']

 

But his team selection does smack of deckchair rearranging doesn't it? A stopped clock is right twice a day.

Glover must be creamin his kegs

Brave isn't the first word I thought of when I saw the team!

Too much chopping and changing for me particularly in key positions, we've got to get something out of this game.

[Rudge's Flat Cap]

In absolute disbelief at the starting line up. In a relegation scrap and the best players on the bench. What must Coulibaly think when he can't get a game over Birchall?

[CAVALIER]

This is just like the few games before Adams walked. No ****ing idea

[cheeky]

The team selections smacks of a "final throw of the dice" by Page; akin to Adams 'hail Mary' substitutions which very rarely worked, but on this occasion straight from off.

 

The dropping of O'Connor is a bizarre one, but it's the back four that worries me; Dickinson, Duffy and Robertson. Christ, the positional sense of them individually is bad enough, as defensive unit - it could be a long afternoon.

 

The worry is though, if we lose and Page does go, what are we left with? The f***ing dream team of Grew and Glover? That isn't even worth thinking about.

 

3 more points, then clear the lot out and start again.

[bookworm]

Spiders. Page has lost it. The bench is stronger than the first 11

 

to be honest I don't think he ever had it but norman gave him his chance which was fair dues but**************

Couldn't agree more. Page has lost the plot here. Management has cracked him up.

[rayzer]

Cant complain about team. Would play Yates ahead of Duffy.

 

Expect a Vale win.

 

Which pub are you in? I will have what you are on.

[cheeky]

As an aside, I'm listening to the coverage on the radio, and whoever is picking the music at Rochdale is doing a fantastic job.
