Nathan Patterson self isolating

[BlueSevenTwo]

Played there for Leicester against our youths iirc

Ah the old reverse Flanagan.

 

[subversive_bear]

These are the wages of persisting with international football during a global pandemic. An utter farce.

Wasn't there that night. A lad called Luke Thomas played RB.

 

[thenorthseabear]

I’d give Barker a run out at right back v Falkirk.

 

[BlueCofIbrox]

Tav will play. Then if (when) we’re 3-0 up at 60 minutes come off for Barker or someone to play at right wing back.

Ah, my mistake then

 

[JeffreySpauIding]

Wasn't Middleton away with them? Is he isolating?

 

[dublinbear]

Shame as Falkirk would have been a good opportunity to give him some minutes.

 

[happydays]

Ah, my mistake then

Have looked again. You were spot on. Very impressed!

Luke Thomas was No 2
Calvin Ughelumba No 3

Both are actually normally left backs.

Calvin is Calvin Bassey Ughelumba which I didn't realise.

 

[Crouchy]

Laughing at Bassey at Right Back.

 

[Cooperfan]

It's a pity as I'm sure he'd have got the game against Falkirk. I'm not sure what other RBs we have in the youths ?

For the first time I expect SG to trust his squad and start a different 11 in the next two games (possibly Tav and Goldson apart as they seem to play every game).

 

[Arminius]

Play our strongest team, we need silverware.

Against a league 1 side on a plastic pitch?
Nah, that’s stupidity

Thought I had seen it somewhere. Obviously not ideal if we had to play there but he has before was my point, same as Jack

Was impressive that night and as you suggest played RB.

Stupidity until the result doesn’t go our way then you’ll be on complaining about the manager?

Have you forgot we lost Roofe for over a month when he played in Gibraltar on the plastic pitch. I could have played in his place and we still would have won.

But I didn’t say we should play Roofe. We should play the best XI relevant to the conditions and I trust the management to work that out. They’ll know which players are not ideally suited to the conditions and adjust accordingly, but that doesn’t mean we won’t be fielding the best XI we have for that particular match.

Well re-read the thread, the poster I went back to said we should play our strongest team

No, I think you should re-read the very comment of mine that you’ve quoted. I don’t disagree that we should play our strongest team - that will differ based on the opposition and playing conditions.

 

[brain]

Yeh it’s best to just go along with it and self isolate at the moment and not to let on that he’s already been vaccinated like the rest of our players

Really?

[BlueFlagHigh]

He's just had a week off, he doesn't need rested.

It’s still not worth risking jim on a plastic park . He’s our most important player

 

[Angrybluebear]

Laughing at Bassey at Right Back.

Why ?

If you can play football you can play anywhere.

Some of the best left backs were right footed, Andy Brehme, Denis Irwin, Alec Cleland

So why not a left footed right back.

 

[PredaKing]

Damn, was thinking he would play the cup game. Hopefully, he hasn't picked the virus up.

 

[Lenny Dee]

I'm not saying he must play, my point was he'd just had a week off so obviously didn't need a rest.
