    I'm open for a burns unit bet that we won't be relegated.

    Unless you don't think we'll be relegated and if so, what's the point in the post?

    If for whatever reason, the team sheet comes out an we all realise that Cook is up on his own again from minute 1, the writing is gonna be on the wall from the get go

    I think a 4-4-2 as the Harrogate manager predicted. We will find out soon!

    We’re not going down but it could get a bit tight if some of those teams with games in hand pick up points and City don’t, can’t see a lot of points from the next four games unless they so something they’ve rarely done since Stevenage at home.

    Here it is - three changes from Saturday and looks like City will be lining up in a 3-5-2/3-4-1-2.


    Tom Elliott starts up front alongside Andy Cook - Nathan Delfouneso misses out altogether while Callum Cooke drops to the bench to be replaced by Matty Daly.


    Matty Foulds is over his illness and returns for the injured Reece Staunton. Expect him to play at left wing-back with either Alex Gilliead or Levi Sutton on the right side.


    Luke Hendrie likely to slot in as the third centre half alongside Yann Songo'o and Paudie O'Connor, who is clear to play after his red-card reprieve.


    CITY: Bass, Hendrie, Songo’o, O'Connor, Gilliead, Watt, Sutton, Foulds, Daly, Elliott, Cook. Subs: Robinson, Cooke, Cousin-Dawson, Evans, Lavery, Kelleher, O’Donnell.

    I'm going with a 4-4-2 Diamond just because I had an easier time working out who would go where in that formation

    Sounds like it might be time to bring a sports psychologist in.

    If we’re trying to convince shite players they’re decent, we’d be better going with a hypnotist.

    I’ll go for a 2-0 home win and then back to back wins against Mansfield and Swindon.

    be interesting to see where we are if that happened.

    Hoofball, Not 'Arf!

    Had a laff at bbc sport as they still have City playing as a 4-2-3-1 with Elliott in the middle of the three flanked by Daly and Gilliead.
    That could be amazing to watch but for all the wrong reasons.

    The extension of your assumption is it doesn't matter who we signed or let go or if we had 15 forwards, no defenders, no midfielders and we may as well all go home and not play the last however many games.

    It’s the 4th shirt getting a run out to justify the membership fee :) Looks good!

    Wouldn't mind an away strip like this next season. Better than the blue that seems to be a choice as a 2nd or 3rd kit.
