    It's not common sense at all.

    It's Bowyer coward like. Do you see Swindon changing tactics. NO!

    Luckily, we have a manager with balls now will want us to play football his way.

    Agreed but neither do we need to go gung ho. Cambridge have been picking up recently. It’s all right having a game plan to say attack from the off but what if that’s also the opposition’s game plan? Having McCartan in midfield, who can press and break and shoot, gives us a flexibility. But we don’t know yet how Stuart will set up. It’s going to be windy, the ball in the air a lot and they have some really big players.

    Akpan starts for me then also side maybe Harry(Cooke out is a blow). Might be a game for Reeves to be on the bench. If we looking to worry about their height.

    Looking at Twitter pictures again, looks as though Donaldson and Novak start. Motley- Henry too? Looking like 442?

    Guthrie had to be dropped.

    We’re going to find out pretty soon. Today’s team will tell us a lot about Stuart’s thinking and what he’s learned about his players so far.

    He obviously doesn’t like Devitt? Or is he injured?

    Looks like a 4-5-1 we used to see when McCall was here last time. Novak in the wyke role and McCartan just behind

    The only thing that would make it better for me would be if Cooke was fit enough to replace Akpan

    Seems a sensible line up, although a shame we got no one else but Hopeless. Like the way SMc seen instantly that Guthrie not up to it and axed him.

    Well It's 4-4-2 attacking with 2 wingers..

    McCall is no mouse!!

    McCartan could play behind Novak but we shall see...

    He's not injured.

    Think it's fair to say Devitt, Devine and Anderson are not fancied by McCall

    I understand Devine and Anderson as they are gash.

    Devitt looked a decent player to me.

    Certainly lots of freedom and options when we have the ball that's for sure.

    No but some fans like @Park bantam@Park bantam feel we should go into matches being scared of our opponents.

    Like McCall doesn't think like that.

    Hopefully, Cambridge see that like up and think damn they're not scared of us.
