Oh no, just when you think with Holmes gone Brian might play on the left, which wouldn't be too bad, no Igoe's struggling for Friday and Howard may go in "the hole" as his replacement. Why? We all wait with our hearts in our mouths!!

To be fair, Howard did do quite well there when he came on.
Whats worse than this though, is it seems to indicate that we'll be playing 4-5-1 again v MK Dongs.
I can understand it away against top of the table Luton, but not against the likes of MK and and Wrexham

Not when we need to win 6 out of 8 games, or whatever the target is. Howard's better out wide. FACT. I want to see Robbo and Parkin up front on Friday, Parkin needs a partner up there.
Don't wreck Jan Aage Day for the travelling masses Kingy!! It's 10 years since the great man left.

I don't mind Howard having that kind of role, as long as he's not in the central midfield.

Like PM said though I don't want to see Sam up top on his own again. PLaying into the hands of the opposition.

Roberts actually fancies the role of playing in the hole, but always gets shunted out wide, which he doesn't like so much.

4-5-1 sucks donkey balls, surely king must realise that after saturday!? if roberts is fit he must play up front he's wasted out wide. we should be killing teams like Franchise, not going there scared to play attacking football
we should keep the same formation that finished on sat...

roberts parkin MKD have lost less home games than us this season.....our away form is patchy at best......odds are not in favour of us winning.....especially as the defence has returned to being like a sieve.....8 conceded in 3 games, mainly due to errors in basic stuff.

Perhaps a 3-4-1-2 would work with Howard in the hole?

4-5-1 has caused more problems than its solved. Before we had the dilemma of 3-5-2/5-3-2 (whatever you want to call it) and 4-4-2, but now we have the added dimension of the 4-5-1. The problems of 4-5-1 as I see it:
- Several players out of position - will piss them off - A frustrated Parkin has struggled to score in this formation - We are not disciplined enough to have this approach - we make mistakes, Keegan approach of "scoring more than them" may be more suitable
Howard in the hole is not a good idea - he's a great winger, so get the lad playing there. Roberts is a great striker, so lets have him playing there too. No faffing about with Smith on the left wing, or Roberts on the right where he isn't happy. Back to basics King, we need 3 points on Friday and you won't get it in a 4-5-1.
The only positive I see from a 4-5-1, is O'Hanlon's and Jenkins' performances in midfield at Bournemouth and Luton respectively - both did extremely well, and am pleased to say it was a Kingy masterstroke. Unfortunately, we were undone at Bournemouth by playing Duke at left back and not Nicho, and were undone at Luton by bad refereeing decisions (mainly).

Howard can p;ay in the hole as long as the other midfielders win the ball for him
However I couldnt be more against the idea of playing 4-5-fuc-king-1 again

Howard should be good in the hole ... he's had enough practice being up his own most of the time. No, seriously. It won't work because Howard will be so intent on getting the glory himself that he won't slip the ball to better placed strikers. Pointless debate anyway. He will be gone in his big transfer deal by Thursday. Sven hasn't picked him only because he doesn't want to jeapardise the move.
