    Standing and seating tickets are on sale at the same time so you can choose either, it’s the same set up as we now have at Pride park for away fans. 
    How do you know the vast majority want to stand, if the person in front of you is standing up you don’t have a choice.

    If buying tickets at the front is your only advice I assume you haven’t been to many away games in the last couple of years 😂

    Just look around at games? We chant at away fans at home if they don’t stand up! Watch tv, 90% of away ends stood. A lot more home fans too around the country.

    i’m not saying it’s right but I just don’t see what it’s going to achieve keep bringing it up.

    What’s your advice? Keep making comments on a forum? Not sure that will help any more than my advice!

    Interesting how many of the seats have gone first, I bet a good 60% of them to people with no intention of sitting down.

    I'm looking forward to watching the fun! 

    I think people just desperate for a ticket. Take what they can.

    I get what you’re saying about sitting down but doesn’t feel an argument you’re going to win. Vast majority of people want to stand. Buy tickets at the front about the only advice I can think of.

     

  3. Am happy to say Gayle been far better than I expected him to be! Has a lot of good touches. Was always going to be a good finisher. Looks pretty fit and still reasonably quick as well.

    3 at the back working well currently, may get to a point in games where we go to a four and then two up front. Gayle think would be better with a partner up front.

    I've long thought that perhaps the management team should be based away from the touchline, like you sometimes see in Rugby League (I think).

    It would stop a lot of the current shenanigans involving managers and indeed the fourth official.

    Surely a manager / head coach would also benefit from a decent view up in the stands somewhere.

    Yeah I don’t get the fourth official role, it’s like they’re there to be moaned at.

    I agree, though I thought he got better as the game wore on. As someone else suggested above, I think he sometimes struggles in a back 3. It's something I hope the coaches are working on if this is the formation we're going to run with (TBH, with all of the conventional full-backs injured, do we have a choice?)

    I think he has more of the ball and also space to carry it into or make a pass. Not his strength.

    where as in a four you generally have the full back to pass too so is noticeable on the ball as much.

    if we insist on the three, nyambe a better fit for the right sided centre back. Nelson in the middle and cashin left?

    Still don’t particularly like this back three. Bradley is slow and ponderous, Nelson isn’t vastly better either. Means we play at such a laborious pace most of the time.

    Today was better because the space that was in the wide areas was occupied by Sibley and Ward who are good enough going forward to use it. That hasn’t been the case for awhile with Elder, Nyambe and (shudder) left back Cashin. You can’t really play a back 3 and then two wing backs who are also bad on the ball. 

    Agree about Nelson, he looks a lot more exposed on the ball playing in a three. Cashin always looks a lot better in a back four as well. But feels like he is insistent on his persevering with the back three.

    actual attacking wing backs helped so much though, stayed high and keeps us up the pitch

  7. Feels weird but we just need to forget the last two games and start again.

    really feels like winning five or six in a row at this point will be enough for promotion. 
     

    Hopefully getting more options at the top of the pitch, Gayle and waghorn be fitter each game. Sibley at 10 seems a no brainer in our situation currently, he at least gets shots off.

    just a back to basics 4231 seems to be the way forward on this, as many round pegs in round holes as possible. The extra defender is not making us any better defensively and hinders us offensively.

    Not sure if it’s 4-3-3

    Wildsmith

    Nyambe Nelson Bradley Cashin

    Smith Adams Bird

    Wilson Gayle NML

    or 3-5-2 

    Wildsmith 

    Nelson Bradley Cashin

    Nyambe Smith Adams Bird Wilson

    NML Gayle

    hope it’s the first option personally

    And me but highly doubt is playing cashin left back.

    What the actual?

    Agree, think looks a horrible team. Nyambe is not a wing back. 
     

    leaves it to Wilson to attack, then we have a back three and two defensive mids. Bird to push on and Gayle and nml. 
     

    we might well win, but we’re playing a team near the relegation zone, should be far less worried about the opposition.

    He might think that with Adams and Smith happy to drop back to help protect against breaks, he can really release Wilson and Sibley to support the front two.

    Our wing backs have often seemed reluctant to commit.

    Personally I’d play 4-3-3 every week and let opponents worry about us rather than the other way round.

    Yeah I agree that a back five can be attacking, have yet to see it under warne though.

    yeah similar, 4231, 433 are pretty similar anyway. Usually have one of your three midfielders who attacks more anyway a la Bryson.

    I think Warne will try to combine his love of Bradley in a 5-3-2 with a concession to attacking intent.

    Think Gayle and CBT will be introduced from the bench and that the lineup will be 

                           Wildsmith 

    Wilson Nelson Bradley  Cashin Sibley       

                             Adams     

                Smith                   Bird         

    Barkhuisen                                    NML

                             

     

    5 at the back with Adams and smith sounds awful. 
     

    Sibley has to play, seems the only player that shoots. 
    a back four would make so much more sense with no strikers as well. At least lets us get players up the pitch. I’m not sure how we plan on scoring with a five?

    wildsmith

    wilson Nelson cashin elder

    adams bird

  12. Thought we probably deserved a point without playing well, not making Barnsley play well to win is annoying!

    really struggled to create anything, and our balls into the box weren’t great.

    not a bad day results wise though, Barnsley joined the pack but otherwise not too much damage done. Could do with a little winning run of four or five games now.  Consolidate second place.
