I’d feel better about it if we had more than 24 hours to find a replacement.

Trying it on.

Great result. I feared the worst when I saw the line up. Having to chop and change all the time makes life difficult. When everybody's fit again JDT will have a headache.

I worry about the two kids in centre midfield. It’ll be won or lost there.

I wish he was playing tonight.

Exactly. I know it’s not his best position but when we need some presence up the front he needs to put his hand up.

He’s not the best player at the club when he’s on the treatment table.

Where are they though ? One’s a sick note, another one is a teenager, Wharton has had his share of injuries and Carter has just come back from one. So tonight we have a young lad back from injury and a new starter with a kid on the bench. Matt Woods played centre half for us for about 6 seasons and the only time he went missing was when he got suspended.

You can guarantee he’ll go missing. Especially when he’s needed the most.

It’s hard to paint a different picture.

If that line up doesn’t get changed again at half time I’ll be surprised.

We can’t keep chopping and changing like this and expect results. I mean Dolan up front, really ? I’d take a draw now.

I’ll wait whilst I see the team but I’m expecting a weakened side turning out tonight. We’ve been beyond unlucky with injuries. I’m wondering when we’ll be able to field our best 11.

I’ve heard of centre halves who’s knees were that bad they couldn’t train indoors. They still turned out every game though. It’s not like Ayala misses the odd game. He gets injuries out of nowhere and then he goes missing for months.

Where’s Carter then ? On the bench ?

Beyond a joke now. The most injury prone centre half I’ve ever heard of. Wasn’t it only last week he was saying how great it was to be fit again ?

Can he play centre half ?

I think Buckley has played himself onto the bench. Unless he’s the stand in right back.

Another team playing it around at the back until they lost the ball.

Par for the course I’m afraid at this level.

It’s comedy gold. I just wish it would have happened a week or two back. I could have taken it to the Edinburgh Festival and sold out.

Have you looked at Premier League transfer fees today. There are players I’ve never heard of going for £70 million.

If only a few other transfers had have been done under a similar arrangement. One or two of our recent signings would have been back at their original clubs.

You’re making the mistake of thinking that everyone that posts on here is dealing with a full deck. Some obviously aren’t.

He’s wrong there, at the least Hirst can head the ball.
