100%. You don't change a winning team unless you're forced into it.

I never get why fans cling to this idea so strongly. Pick the team best suited to this Saturday, irrelevant of last Saturday. Of course, that considers form etc but you absolutely do a change a winning team. For example, if Freeman was fit or Hunt was available, Caddis should be dropped.

Perhaps. My point, though, is re the idea that a winning team is a cast-iron selection.

I suspect that JS will go with the same team.

Ok, so not a cast iron selection. If we were dog shit against Ipswich but still won, then yes, by all means make the changes. But we were good. The best we've been for a long while so I wouldn't change the team and I'd be surprised if Sheridan does.

it's early days in the great revival and Donny are more of an attacking threat than Ipswich so don't see any need to go bit more attacking at least not from the start.  Also now that Pitman seems to be contributing more would make more sense to keep that going. 

I'd be disappointed if JS didn't at least start with the same team where possible.

I am 100% certain he will start with the same team as last week, and so he should. I just would have liked a little more attack minded at home.

Caddis needs help in defending these days IMO, and Palmer did that job very well against Ipswich.

Thats why we have Freeman waiting in the wings, who is apparently a great signing at our level if you listen to Sheff Utd fans.

Hoping for an unchanged team tomorrow. We need to build on the win against Ipswich with a settled side. When was the last game where we didn’t change the starting team after a good result?

Whether this is true or not but I heard he had to isolate first before training.
Definitely a promising signing and will be interesting to see how quickly he is challenging for a place.
Not forgetting Hunt will soon be available again.

Certainly hope that is just another rumour, could do with him on the wing after last week's performance.
2-1 win would be quite acceptable.

Looking forward to watching this - to see if last week’s performance was a one-off or an indication of better things to come.

Ditto for Scott Twine as well.
