I'd like to think we could play with a bit more freedom now and give a couple of the younger players a go. It would be good to see Clark at centre back and perhaps give Gardner a go. Is the Fonz our only fit forward?

Guzan - cuellar, dunne, Clark, lichaj - carruthers, Gardner, herd, warnock - Ireland - gabby / heskey / Fonz

People have been saying that for most of the second half of the season.

We'll be going for a draw and thus bringing us a record of most draws in a 38 game season.

Seriously - I`ll go with a highly entertaining 3-3 or 4-4 with McLeish being supported by the board and owner for next season - thought turns my stomach.
I'd love to go along with a score like that, but we rarely create 3 or 4 chances.
I've a feeling AMcL will be given until Christmas. I think Randy owes him that after dealing him such a bum hand to start with.
I still feel that he deserves a crack at building his own team, not be using players who are past there use by date from other managers.
However, I think his position has become untenable.

With the pressure finally off I can see us winning this one

I'll go for 1-3 with Gabby, Heskey and Ireland scoring (if they're all fit)

There is no way that Eck will give the reserves a run when we could still miraculously let that goal difference slip.

And that sums up how he thinks that fear and not attack is the best form of defence. Glad we're safe, but even the way we did it was DULL: 0-0, 1-2, 0-0, 1-1...
