4231 same as every game
Its not a terrible side... If we had a manager with a bit about him
Neither Pitman nor T Smith can play a supporting role - one for lack of legs, the other plays on the shoulder. That's 4 players in the team with little to no clue on defending, which means they will exert far too much energy thinking about where they should be and diverting it from being much kop (just an opinion). Add in Palmer who does not look much better at defending in general and you've exposed the back four unless we play football by numbers again, which seems likely. Everyone just retreat to the painted spots on the floor with your number please, at least 6 feet apart.

I have a feeling, looking at the side, it will be 4 - 4 - Fucking Two, with Hope shoe horned in as a wide midfielder.
Which had us looking totally lost against Hull, should never have started that way up there, hopefully it is 433/451.

Bollocks, our defenders just respect social distancing!

I wonder how many minutes will be "even" tonight. Can we hope for double digits?

Well, if 5 minutes of a game can be described as awful, this one was.
