Be interesting to get some thoughts on what people think the best team and formation should be given the players that have returned? 

                       Raya

Nyambe Lenihan Mulgrew Bell

                   Smallwood

      Bennett     Dack    Payne

             Graham Armstrong

or

                       Raya

Nyambe Lenihan Mulgrew Bell

             Smallwood Bennett

          Payne  Dack Armstrong 

                      Graham   

or he might go 3-5-2

                           Raya

         Lenihan Mulgrew Williams

Nyambe     Smallwood  Bennett      Bell

                              Dack

                  Graham Armstrong

Reminds me of the old General Studies A Level multiple question exam. Just randomly tick boxes, sometimes get it right and anyone can pass. I did and I did.

I'm not sure if he's mentioned it but Chaddy likes 3 at the back.

My attempt at FM FWIW (that isn't a formation):-

A flap-free Raya in goals.

Nyambe, Lenny, Mulgrew and Bell across the back 4.

Smallwood and Travis in midfield. Based on the fact Travis looks a very positive and talented lad who looks forward when he gets the ball. As others have said we look to have a quality player there.

Bennett, Dack, Armstrong. Bennett because he adds balance and width and has a phenomenal work-rate. Armstrong is a striker really.

Graham - 9 goals in 8 games at home or summat like that.

                            Raya

    Nyambe  Lenny Mulgrew Bell

                 Travis Smallwood

Bennett           Dack              Armstrong

                       Graham

Lewts, Conway, Downing, Payne,  Whittingham, Nuttall, Samuel, Williams, Evans, Antonnson, Toimlinson, Gladwin, Caddis to fight for places on the bench.

Chapman to be straight in the 1st team when he's fit and offered a 10 year contract and a street named after him.

It's an embarrassment of riches really for League 1. Like Mogga said, if he doesn't get this squad up (said before we signed Payne and Armstrong) he's not much of a coach. Sorry if repeating this upsets some people:P

A decent coach could fashion a mid table L1 side from that bench. Not sure about the keeper though.

Correct - basically we dont have a clue who or how we will line up. Those are my three favourite guesses though - ill still get stumped on all three though.

Except for the tiny detail you missed out about Travis being suspended for the next two matches. :rolleyes:

Quite an uncowardly statement by any manager's standards.

...and Northampton. More false dawns than a transvestite convention.

These are the games we should win. We aren't a bad side at home, second best in this league playing the team with worst away record, so our quality should register 3 points.

It'll be a good TV shop window for some but with the added incentive of going top everyone will up their game.

Or a stupid and arrogant one. I'll judge him by his actions. Let's hope we don't have a left back on the wing again tomorrow just because Mogga once saw their right-back cross the halfway line.:rolleyes:

Mowbray doing anything right doesn't fit the narrative does it?

The only narrative is we have to go up. Let's hope the resolution to the narrative arc is that Mowbray doesn't get sacked for failing to achieve it. The chances of that happening when you change your team to counter Oldham's right-back are quite high.

If you see things differently please elaborate?

Essential that we win tonight. No ifs, not buts, no references to Bury being unbeaten in 5. We've made a mess of games v Wimbledon, Plymouth, Oldham and Northampton at home who are/were all in the bottom 4. Time to deliver.

Gutted that it's not on iFollow. *Hint hint*

I'll settle for any win, no matter how it comes. We've seen how even teams at the top can cock up unexpectedly, so I'll be happy for us to get through it with a scrappy win.

No. He looked technically adept but he seemed to think slower than anybody else on the pitch. He is part of the squad though and that was what my post was about.

Stop digging blueboy, your obvious dislike of Mowbray is clear, if we fail to go up you can spend the summer saying 'I told you so' but until then keep that powder dry :P
