    * Who would you trundle out on Saturday?

    Any formation you want – it doesn’t have to follow Jimbob’s stubborn almost epicaricacy deployment of his unitactic.

    Against a sole striker:

    Gk- Campbell (if he’s still around?)

    Central Defender – Evans
    Central Defender – Boyce

    R Mid Back – Ogle
    Holding Mid – Scales
    L Mid Back – Kelly

    Mid – McAlinden
    Mid – Roberts

    Attacking Mid – Butterfield (just behind the front two)

    CF – Whitehall
    CF – Elliot

    A 2-3-2-1-2 formation.

    * Or when they are available from suspensions.

    Attack, attack, attack.

    Evans now available, he’s completed his 4 match ban.
    Don’t know about Dean, he maybe has a touchline ban now.

    Pretty sure Rene’s formation is the world famous Mike Bassett Xmas Tree!

    Given we kind of have to win 5 games in a row and we are struggling to score or indeed create many real chances then we have to take Iron Stats latest data into account.

    Too late to change formation from the one we’ve used in every game except Chester away.

    Fitz
    Ogle
    Kouogan
    Evans
    Denton
    Shrimpton
    Butterfield
    Scales
    Roberts
    Whitehall
    Elliott

    Subs
    Sembie-Ferris
    Beestin
    Boyce
    Pugh
    Kelly/sub keeper for actual playoff match(es).

    Tactics – don’t care if they score, we’ll score more.

    Time for the big pants Jimmy.

    Don’t need a sub keeper with Boyce in the playing squad we need all our five subs to be outfield players for every remaining game.

    If we kind of have to win 5 games on the bounce, does that mean Chorley have to win 6 some others 7, come on MK you’ve been watching football long enough to believe that.
    Lot easier just to win 2 or 3 games on the trot or maybe draw them and just score more penalties than others.
    I’d like Jimmy to have a bit of fun and try Fitz as an outfield player some of his passes have been sublime.

    Basing my needing to win every game on the need to finish 2nd to avoid playoff away games.

    We have failed to show we have any capability to beat a half decent NLN side away from home.

    No choice now as Campbell has been recalled.

    Surely we will be emergency loaning a new keeper?

    Have noticed despite the overall lower quality of football in this league (compared to what we have been accustomed to) I have been impressed with the quality of goalkeeping.

    How on earth did we perservere with Watson for so long with so many quality part time keepers about?

    Don’t be fooled MK, like the outfield players they up their game against us. Many of them will be rubbish for the other 42 games
