I think Cox will need to fight it out with Longelo

All suggestions are an improvement on 352.
I’d still go with a 4231
Sobowale at RB
Which ever CB x2
Cox or Longelo LB
Ofoborh
Kilkenny as the 2 CMs
McGregor as the right side of the attacking 3
McGurk & Cotterill one central, other one left side. Could potentially push whichever of Cox or Longelo who isn’t at LB forward.
Whichever striker. Probably Smith.
…only real omission in a 4231 is Glatzel.

Heretical I know, and it's understandable considering the team we've been, but Glatzel has done nothing this season to deserve selection. Higher ceiling than Drinan , Smith or Tshimanga for sure, but that's all you have to go on.

Inclined to agree on 4231. We're trying to turn things around and we'e away against a decent side. I think we need to start off conservatively with two in front of the defence, and look to become more attacking as the game goes on. |

I mean it’s two deep but we don’t have two defensive midfielders but ideally Ofoborh would be the disciplined holder allowing Kilkenny to play a bit from deep…
Sorta what we tried to do with Cotterill at the start of the season (player from deep) just with a ball winner alongside him & 4 attacking players in front of him…

Just listened to Holloway on the LSpod. I’m such a turncoat, I’m really starting to warm to him. Talks sense.

It's a funny one isn't it, because 95% of what he says I really like and then he just says something that feels a little bit... off. It's hard to say. I definitely think he's an improvement on Kennedy, and that's all that really matters in the short term.

It's a League Two Pirlo/Gattuso midfield and I'm absolutely here for it. |

Indeed, that 95% to 5% is almost the exact opposite of Kennedy for me. |

From the services at Leicester

We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Yeah, although Kennedy started off appearing to make some sense, it soon turned into a shit show |

Possibly, but we didn't have that many tickets, however they are available on the day at the ground |

Not 100% sure, but wouldn't be surprised if they get taken off sale 24-36 hours before for admin reasons. |

Anybody want to guess how many we're bringing.
I am going. First away game for a while.
Heard the lower section is open. So should be a decent atmosphere.

Just over a 1,000 sold I believe. Pay on the day also, should be over 1,200 |
