No need to worry about tuesday.Remember, our manager has been in this situation before. That experience should have taught him a lot !

1-1 which will probably be enough to see us safe in a kind of somebodies tripped us up and we've crawled over the line kind of way.

Great result in ManU 4 Everton 4 if your worried about QPR going above us! Image if the championship goes to the last game of the season only see one outcome at Eastlands!
Need to win this game though so we not banking on other results.

Am I the only one who hopes that Heskey plays up front with Weimann? They seem to work well together tbh.

We're a bad side in bad form. A note traditional 442 with a big man little man combo, against a poor defence, may be our best bet. So I also think heskey / weimann may be the way to go.

I think it would be a risk to play 2 wingers though, so I'd pick CNZ ahead of alby. Herd and Ireland must start, I'm just unsure how I'd configure the rest of the midfield. I'm losing faith in bannan but I think possibly him tucked in on the left although that means CNZ on the right.

Oh, I don't know. It's just a bit depressing isn't it

I think I'm gonna have to agree, Gabby's not been playing well recently and Weimann has the qualities that Heskey's lacking. Good pair they are.

They did seem to work pretty well together, the only problem is we have a lack of pace on the pitch without Gabby.

Their they would make a logical pairing I think.

Just think this is a result which is there for the taking.  Althrough our home form has been terrible this season, I do think against a side like Bolton it is one example where being at VP should work to our favour.

As I posted on pg 1 of this thread, I'd play Heskey/Weimann up top but Gabby would play left side. He's not threatening to score so let him put a shift in down the left side which to be fair was the position he last looked good in when he seemed to supply Bent with a few goals from there before Xmas.
