1-3 Luton unfortunately,
When was the last time we scored more than one goal in a match! Hope I'm wrong though . UTB

Pathetic

Just keep it tight and hit them on the break. No piling forward leaving us exposed.

1-0 Blades.

Northern trains actually running Manc-Sheffield. Looking forward to a pre match pint instead of driving. Utmb

My first choice wasn't running despite no snow my side of Worksop. Could have been goats on the line or the wrong kind of dew or summats TBF.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

Hope the first eleven get the job done because there is not much attacking options on the bench if we are struggling.

 

[Dore Blade]

Fleck and Norwood together again ???

Worksop lad like me then

 

[derfblade.3]

Doyle for Fleck and Baldock for Lowe would be my choice.

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

3 defenders and 1 striker on the bench?

And for the love of God how is Fleck getting picked

 

[Gaini Blade]

Worksop lad like me then

No, fraid not - I only pass (swiftly) through!

 

[originaltrueblade]

Last chance saloon Flecky my son

 

[jono_t2000]

Luton missing Jordan Clark today. He's been one of their strongest players this season behind Morris.

Also missing Alfie Doughty on the left who's been a mainstay in their starting lineup pretty much every game.

 

[bakeblade]

Doyle for Fleck and Baldock for Lowe would be my choice.

And just about everyone else, hope Hecky knows what he's doing. What's Doyle done wrong

 

[Keen Blade]

Fleck and Norwood together again ???

Such a pedestrian midfield - fuck knows how we don't start at least one of Doyle or McAtee - watch us get run through whilst Berge saunters around - and Sharp the only striker on the bench ? With a ref he's accused of bias ? Are we feckin stupid ?

 

[Balti Pie]

Midfield of Norwood, Fleck and Berge? Against a very athletic side? Even average opposition midfields have waltzed past those three like they weren’t there in the past - I fear for us today!

 

[Keen Blade]

I'm sorry but Hecky's selections just leave me nonplussed now

 

[Keen Blade]

You know what's coming ...

Normally when everyone throws a hissyfit over the starting lineup... Blades then go out there and smash it out the park.

Probably ref insisted that his love child doesn’t play….

 

[Keen Blade]

Of course I hope that happens but that midfield hasn't got any pace or threat in it - is Hecky going for a draw ?
If we struggle or go behind , he must use his positive subs and not too late in the game.
Me , I start McAtee and bring Fleck on to guard the lead.
Give the oppo something to worry about - not start with no pace in midfield.

I hope your correct, but many on here, me included, think the Norwood, Fleck, Berge midfield has had its day. I fear we will struggle against a combative Luton team. Too slow, too pedestrian and Berge just disappears if the going gets tough.

Oh don't get me wrong, I wouldn't have started Fleck and Norwood together. But lets not expect the worst before a ball has even been kicked.
