I can't remember it ever being so difficult to pick a starting line up due to the quality available. I'd go with;
Blackman
Harding Ihiekwe MacDonald A Mattock
MacDonald S Lindsay
Barlaser
Ogbene Hirst Miller
Most likely subs to use: Smith, Wiles, Crooks
Theory - Barlaser spraying laser-like passes wide to Ogbene and Miller and plenty of supply into the box. My only reservation with this line-up would be the lack of goal threat with just Hirst so I might change Lindsay for Crooks as long as the latter has got his hard-work hat on and fancies putting in a big shift!

Huddersfield come to town after beating Forest last Friday. Two players who we have had on loan could be facing us, namely Toffolo and Koroma. They like to play 4:3:3 and i think we have a good chance of winning this. I would still play 4:2:3;1 and as Glenn said it is a difficult job picking the starting line up. I do think it would be harsh to drop Wiles who i thought was as good as anybody last Saturday. I also know his preferred position is in an advance central midfield role.
I would be happy with the team Whiston has listed, but there are lots of players who are going to be unlucky to miss out and whoever starts the subs bench will be as strong as I can remember it ever being.
My side tmw Blackman; Harding Ihiekwe A McDonald Mattock or Olosunde; Ogbene Lindsay Barlaser Miller; Sadlier; Hirst. Liked what I saw of Miller last week. Sadlier behind the lone forward, there's goals in him.
Interesting that the two best player last week have left out of your team.
Crooks is in a poor run of form so he his left out and replaced by player who has done nothing and is selected to play in position that we have not seen him used in. Barlesar is a decent player but lacks pace and a tackle so he needs to play in a 5man midfield.
We looked better last week when Smith came on. Hirst did a lot of work but with little end product. He has come to learn his trade.
Not sure we Have a fit left back but would agree to playing Olosunde if fit.
We learn that to succeed in this division we need to play our best players.
I'm not sure why anyone would want to leave Shaun MacDonald out on present form. I dont think Barlaser coming back necessarily means that Shaun MacDonald will lose his place.
There's no way Jones would play if Warney is serious about being a manager. Reminds me of Potter both ok if game is played slow. I'm not sure if S McDonald is up to the pace of the championship over a no. of games. Want us to win at the NYS. That's why I've gone with the side I've said.
Difficult decision but to play them both means the midfield is good on the ball but lacks the energy to support the lone forward. I don’t think you can play two up front with both in the middle. In any case we do not have a second forward to play two up front.
Smith and Hirst look to want to do same job, Ladapo not good enough, Vassell possible but not seen enough of him in that role.
Crooks is a good player but looks ponderous at the moment but will come good.
424 we will get over run by the good teams. Deny them space and use the pace of players in the middle to support Smith.
No Ogbene. Mattock back. No Olosunde. Still think Warney doesn't like making tough decisions that's why Crooks & Ladapo are starting today. Barlaser on the bench. Bench today no other defender on it only Wood.

You're talking crap again gwru. What you mean is, Warne hasn't picked picked the team that you want to see.
It is an easy allegation to make but baseless and impossible to prove or disprove. Logic suggests though that Warne stands to do best if his team wins. Why wouldn't he pick what he thinks is the best side? Time was that it was when he picked Wood, gwru would say he was picking his mates. Today Wood is left out, and gwru still says Warne is picking his mates.
In summary, unless Warne picks the team gwru wants him to pick, gwru thinks something is up. He talks out of his arse.
Ogbene must not be available. Olosunde hasn't been fit. In Ladapo and Crooks we have our two top scorers from last season playing.
Proves it with his bench. No full back on it with Vassell still there. That's enough from me. Watching game on I follow. See whose right then.
FFS not this again as well. We will never see 'whose (sic) right' because the team you wanted picked will never play this game, so we will never see how it would have done. Do you understand that?????
Why don't you try supporting the team instead of trying to prove that you know better than Warne? Which you know is true but can't bring yourself to admit.
