vulture_squadron Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 With us now safe would people be ok with us fielding experimental line ups in the last three games? Maybe a different formation and / or give some kids more a go? Might not please the paying fans but could be worth it in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cognacbarnowl Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 It may happen, but Jos has already said he will respect the supporters and try to win every one of the remaining matches. I'd still expect to see fairly strong line ups with a couple of youngsters getting the nod from the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Snooty Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 (edited) I'd keep the same system and just let the lads play. Get a bit of confidence built. I think any experimentation should be done during a well planned and prepared pre-season exercise where there's plenty of work done on the training ground and some tough freinds day matches lines up.

Notts Owl Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 No because if we get mullered it will destroy the confidence that has taken so long to get back. Use the pre-season for that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelcityowlsfan Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 I thought there was a new EFL rule to prevent this? I’m sure you have to field 90% of the side that played in the last game unless they are injured? Something to do with relegation threatened and play off chasing teams moaning about unfair line ups. I mean come on, how are we going to convince the EFL that we have injured players? We can’t even convince our own fans 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDM4nil Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 No experiments for me - try and win all 3 and finish as high as we can. We can still catch a few, including dirty Leeds. UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At some points of the season ticket we had no choice but to ‘play the kids’ in real games I’m not sure what we’re going to learn about them at this point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike312 Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Would be nice to finish the season in good form to give us some confidence for next season. A couple of home wins would lift the mood further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather play with 10. Bugs me that a kid in the juniors is behind Hirst, who is clearly looking to move. As with FF, Clare and Hirst, any player that doesn't want to play for the club, for whatever reason, should be told to F off, and stay away from the club.

Southie_Owl Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 There’s not much experimenting that can be done to justify it. Our squad isn’t big enough, so we should try and win the game from the start and bring on the best young players in the second half. We’re not going to learn much by playing Jones, Butterfield etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great that we can all hear different things, from different sources, and have different views, as a result, and still not fall out, isn’t it? Glad we’ve progressed so much.
