Thanks, now I just need friends ... :tumbleweed:

Very true, screw friends! Is the North Bank definitely open to home fans?

Depends. Rumours are Morecambe are bringing 2000 fans down. Police have been put on high alert for trouble.

Why are so many willing to drop Barry Corr, short memories perhaps?

Cos Phil Brown said he wasn't 100% at the Q&A?

I think we’ll line up

Bentley
White
Phillips
Prosser
Coker
Atkinson
Leonard
Hurst
Straker
Freddy
Woodrow

That's what I think, Timlin is not likely to start if he wouldn't chance him as a sub at Wycombe. Hurst can play CM, it's how I'd go with the team tomorrow.

2-1 win, the Fredster to open, Phillips to win it.

Expect to see me. That's a change. Yippee !!!

Where you gonna be sitting Tone? If you are South I'll come and find you

For me it all depends if Phillips is back. If he is, well I will go 2 0 Southend, if not maybe 1 1 draw. Overall we have not played badly in our two away defeats, and should have got something out of both games. Get tighter at the back, and we should be to good for Morecambe.

 

[Romford Shrimper]

We're gonna get spanked.. :'(

This will be a big test physically and Morecambe are strong at set pieces, which has been our downfall recently. However, im hoping the guys will be better organised with Phillips back in. I think if Timlin plays he will gagging at the bit to impress...

The team i'd pick:

BENTLEY
WHITE PHILLIPS PROSSER COKER
HURST LEONARD TIMLIN STRAKER
EASTWOOD CORR

Delete Straker, insert Atkinson....selection complete

 

[Shrimper]

3-0 to us.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

2-0 BBBC and Hurst

 

[Jam_Man]

2-0 BBBC and Hurst

How is that 2-0?

If those two score then with Freddy's hattrick surely its 5-0 ?

:winking: Hope so!

 

[chapperzUK]

FOUR CHANGES: Mark Phillips, Kevan Hurst, Michael Timlin and Cauley Woodrow all start today.

Guessing Thompson, Clifford, Straker and Corr out then?

 

[Jam_Man]

TEAM: Bentley; White, Phillips, Prosser, Coker; Hurst, Timlin, Leonard, Straker; Eastwood, Woodrow

SUBS: Smith, Reid, Corr, Atkinson, Clifford, Payne, Auger.

Decent side and strong bench.

 

[Shrimper95]

Will I be able to buy tickets over at the west stand?

 

[Harry Bullocks]

I think Mr Straker is a lucky/relieved chap today...

 

[ozzy-shrimper]

Straker very lucky to stay in that team and Atkinson unlucky to be dropped. Hopefully a good performance today will bring back that confidence we've been seeing.
