Team news: Alfie out, Harris in

 

[Andydenny]

Harris's loan contract must have him playing a large % of games when available for selection.

 

[Grant]

Great goal from Iwata as we reduce the deficit and silence the crowd. All to play for in the 2nd half #bcfc #kro

 

[BluZ]

Every teams cup final

Every teams cup final

Yes mate. But our owners have spent three times Shrewsburys annual turnover on this squad and they are beating us 3.1,just not good enough and it keeps happening.

 

[Andydenny]

This will only be our 2nd loss. Poor run of draws but sacking manager would most certainly see us in league 1 next year too

 

[Born On The Kop]

Bizarre starting line up for me

 

[ColmWilliams]

I know he’s past it but Juke in that final 10 would have been useful

 

[Liam]

Agree re Juke ..night all …. They need to step up … probably look world beaters on training ground but not scaring defences … given forwards quality does my f head in … just a follow on from Northampton game

 

[Stephen_Merriman]

Just woke up, I assumed it was a 4am kick-off. Looks like i made the right mistake.

 

[Born On The Kop]

TGH for Laird all day long from now

 

[ColmWilliams]

Totally agree. TGH has to come back in, think we’ve looked unbalanced with Laird in.

 

[Richard Bourne]

We’ll come back from this I’m sure

 

[Stephen_Merriman]

Yea I agree. Most of the frustration I've seen on line it's we don't have a plan B, C or D. And that CD doesn't seem to know his best 11

Should never have dropped Ben Davies.

 

[Born On The Kop]

Should never have dropped Ben Davies.

100%.He hadn't put a foot wrong. It sent out totally the wrong message letting Beilik walk back in

 

[Andydenny]

Not sure its any one players fault at all but we saw more of may in the no 10 position than we did harris. Maybe he was more visible as he dropped deeper for the ball. Im open to being wrong about harris as it took me awhile to see paiks influence on the games than it did most people who saw his quality earlier than I.

40 mph wind and we bring Dykes on ffs, Bring Alfie on and put Stansfield out wide cutting in and put Willumson behind Alfie and play it on the deck
We also need more nasty in midfield so I would play Leanord
Laird seems obsessed with beating his man three times before crossing so he's got to be left out

 

[Andydenny]

Getting to the point where davies needs to plaster bieliks comments around our own dressing room wall to motivate us i still think we will be ok for promotion as the season is always a roller coaster but i would be lying if i said i was not concerned.

The thing is Andy it's been like this for a fair bit of the season if we are totally honest
