    Always difficult to balance things. We apparently had 2,368 tickets sent. According to the latest confirmation of POTD, we had sold over 2,000. So l would guess about 300 or so spaces. I know it is highly unlikely, but what happens say if 400 or so turn up?

    3 changes from Tuesday with Ridehalgh, Richards and Smallwood in for McDonald, Stubbs and Kavanagh. Walker and Oyegoke on the bench. Expect Ridehalgh will go into LCB and Kelly into the middle.

    Need a lot more from Wright today.
    Shown very little since he came back.

    Interesting that the starting line up has both Ridehalgh and Richards included.

    Shocked to see Walker back do soon tbh. Hey if he’s going to get fit with 15-30 min cameos sooner then we win!

    I think Ridehlagh will play left sided centre back. I'd rather have him in the back three than Taylor. I think he's not a bad option in a back three tbh.

    Guessing Kelly moves central?

    No Wilson after his performance v. Donny when he came on??
    Surely after running them ragged he's earned a place, if even on the bench?
    What did Wright do to warrant his place also?
    Pointon is best moving on, GA clearly doesn't rate the lad.

    Ridehalgh came on against Wycombe as LCB and did well, assuming Stubbs is injured then it makes sense for Ridehalgh to be given another chance.

    I don't think he's a centre back either but he's able to fill in for the odd match on the left side of a back three and he's a better option than Taylor.

    He did well against Wycombe and no reason he can't do it again. I don't see why he can't be a LCB as he will be comfortable covering the wide areas when needed

    Graham Alexander has definitely overachieved in terms of results since he's been here, he's consistently made peculiar tactical choices.

    I guess you can afford to do that in L2 as nobody seems to be punishing us.

    Very strange line up. Must be a couple of injuries been kept quiet. Seems some players have not been rewarded for, albeit cameo, performances. Hope I’m wrong but can’t see better than a draw.

    Wilson would have scored that.
