    Looks like @derrickh100@derrickh100 knows his stuff. I imagine Pattison has had an injury setback. No idea about Pointon or Chapman but clearly Alexander rates Osadebe. We’ll see.

    And still no Chapman or Pointon on the bench.

    Strange.

    Crap bench, needs to be won by those on the pitch before resorting to it. I’m going to presume Pattison has a knock. But why the likes of Pointon, Chapman and Wilson aren’t there for some pace and mobility to come on and make a difference I have no idea.

    Totally agree, mate.

    No real option to change things around on the bench. Let's hope we get an early goal.

    Osadebe is questionable but why we have four pensioners on the bench ahead of the likes of Chapman, Pointon and Wilson will never make sense to me.

    Wilson is tosh. Agree re Pointon and Chapman. We have the old brigade instead.

    My guess is we have had offers on Stubbs, Pointon and Chapman.

    Plenty of questions to be asked if we don't win now with the team and more importantly bench selections.

    Just seems strange when GA said we have a fully fit squad only days ago. Surely if Pointon or Chapman are fit they play over Paddy!?

    Either a) prioritising Stockport or b) GA thinks Morecambe are crap or c) the missing players are on their way out of the club like the loanees. I hope he has called this right.

    Osadebe is questionable. Would loved to be proved wrong but can't see it personally, bar that one goal against I think Grimsby, he's not shown enough.

    There’s something fishy about our bench v Morecambe

    Like what I’ve seen of Wilson, especially as in impact player. He’s offered more than Osedebe and Oduar but each to their own.

    I agree a strange bench, all I can say is Alexander has got it right for the majority of his games so far this season so we have to accept he may have seen things we haven't.

    if its a case of not utilising players that are on their way out, then I do worry, judging by the fact that we have Ridehalgh, Derbyshire an Taylor on the bench. They should be the first 3 to go

    Have to agree with the discussion on Radio Leeds just now.

    With Walker out and Pattison out, if Pointon can't even get on the bench then he should look to leave as clearly Alexander doesn't have faith in him.
