I actually think our squad looks very good. Versatile, hungry and local lads 🥰

I think our squad looks thin and destined for League One....Game of opinions isn't it.

That said I am still looking forward to tomorrow and proper football being back.

[neophox]

Maya not included tomorrow for WBA not matchfit.....Ennisque.

 

Hopefully we got a new "Bohinen" in our super norwegian scoring a screamer tomorrow!

[philipl]

Daily Mail slagging us off so everything is perfectly fine in the world and the sun will be shining tomorrow.

Hope SWAG is right about the 16/17,000 crowd.

Great us east Lancs lot, aren’t we Phil!

[chaddyrovers]

my team based on team news. Hedges fit, Gallagher out, Ennis could make the bench. 

my team 

               Pears

JRC  Carter  Hyam(C)  Pickering

       Tronstad Wharton

Hedges Szmodics Dolan

              Leonard

Subs:- Hilton, Brittain, Wharton, Travis, Buckley, Markanday, Ennis, Gilsenan, Batty          

[philipl]

I fully expect to be surprised when the team is announced.

[Dreams of 1995]

A big, big season for young Harry Leonard begins against a foe as old as the football league itself

Founding fathers of league association football and both suffering the same ills of distant, careless owners

On Saturday 22nd September 1888 the Baggies played the Rovers and it finished 6-2 to us. More of the same please with Harry bagging a sneaky brace to really kick the debate of "desperate for a striker or not?" off

We now have the Indian govt against us as well it seems, no one likes us but we don't care.

Get behind the lads ffs.

COYB !

It looks bereft of goals, as it did last year.

Nevermind, I found it : 

 

[berkshireblue]

I am only concerned about goals, midfield and defence as good as last season and hopefully better with Wharton stronger and Buckley fit

If we can get a double digit striker on loan or buy before end of transfer window we can challenge

Keep the faith

JDT said A Wharton will be on the bench tomorrow due to him being injured then ill in pre season

I would have settled for that, as I am mightily relieved he is still with us.

Same here. Oh and goalkeeper as well.

Can you expect to be surprised? 🤔

[arbitro]

A significant change for the coming season is that stadium clocks will keep running beyond 45 and 90 minutes to reflect the additional time displayed by the fourth official. Tonight's game at Sheffield Wednesday should be interesting in this respect as the first game is always the indicator of how law and regulation changes will be interpreted.

It's going to be an interesting lineup, I think what you've posted is what JDT will start with.

Travis will be the interesting one. I've always assumed it would be either him or Tronstad that plays but he paired them together in preseason.

I'd like him to start Markanday ahead of Dolan as well but we'll see what he does.
