Gillingham Vs Swindon Town Official Matchday Thread

Fuck sake. Dont like that team  

I disagree totally.

Ignoring the Wes thing, that sort of formation looks workable. 4 creative midfielders (and Risser) all capable of getting in the box and making stuff happen. With Benson up top it would look slightly better, but i reckon this could work.

I agree, it looks a good sort of formation, we had no option but to rest an injured Benson, it is Bostocks natural position, a good friend of mine has been watching him at Spurs since he was a really young lad and says he is a really classy player when played in a role he likes just behind the striker/s....that is his natural position so fingers crossed for the lad.

I quite like the look of that team

Agreed Tans - it could be really good. Solid back four, ritchie back, bostock given chance to make a name. Connell might be a little isolated though.

Like the look of that team. Ritchie, Ferry, Holmes and Bostock -  ridiculous amount of technical ability for a League 2 side. Put the off-the-field stuff out the way at 3 o clock, hopefully we can get the point we need.

[Posh Red]

Benson has been carrying an injury for a while, and did take a heavy knock on Tuesday.

Obviously Wes would be in our strongest team, but that's been done enough.

Most interesting thing is the change of formation, unless Bostock is somehow playing as a striker.

Could see the formation working, although odd that Paolo has been a strict 4-4-2 man up to this point.

Thats my only concern, Benson would do the job well but we can't risk him with his neck injury not healing so we have no other option up front.

[Saxondale]

Connell is not as good at holding the ball up as Benson, but I do think he does it surprisingly well.

[Cibocchi_Is_God]

I actually quite like the look of that team. Hopefully it means we'll be forced to keep the ball on the deck to create our chances rather than relying on 'grinding' them out as we quite often do away. I reckon Bostock will push further up for goal kicks ect so we dont lose out massively in the height department with no Benson.

Got a really good feeling about today, it just seems like it has been written in the stars for us to win promotion at Gillingham!

Kennedy not even on the bench?

[Swindon Please Win]

Nice to hear Paolo said sorry to Flint.

[OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR]

A lot depends on how Bostock performs I would think. Hopefully he can step up to the mark and take his chance and various other cliches.

[Bewster]

Kennedy not even on the bench?

He was dogshit on Tuesday.

The team is good enough to easily get a point.Thats all we need.

[Swindoner]

So hope we win today more than anything as if we draw and Shrewsbury win even if we beat Port Vale then if Shrewsbury were to win aswell then it would mean we couldn't get the title until the Bradford game.

[Samdy Gray]

Yes, the selection and formation looks like it could work, but given the ups and downs of this week, have we actually trained for it? Or is it forced because of the player situation?

[Swindon Please Win]

Who's this on the radio, 

[Saxondale]

Fucking hell.  Please dont tell me I sound like that!
