Our away form is going to be tested this coming week. West Brom away on Tuesday, Norwich away on Saturday.

Of course, Grant can’t play Tuesday agains his parent club.
Maybe a blessing in disguise as he's not exactly tearing up trees...
After a poor start I think Grant has been one of our better players this season. Not a high bar to clear, but still....
I don't like Tanner on the left. Without Grant it might be a nudge to Bulut to change the shape a bit and find a way to play Ramsey and Colwill together?
I would love to see a change of shape. Undoubtedly one of the reasons we find it so difficult to win at home is that opponents have found us out.
With Grant ineligible I would like a rethink by the manager, but given his conservatism when it comes to players and tactics, I doubt we will see much of a change.
Team for WBA
I would prefer we put an extra man in midfield but I don't think the manager will change formation.
Horvath (Alnwick at fault at least 1 goal Sat)
Ng
Phillips
Goutas
Collins
Ralls
Wintle
Turnbull

It's going to be busy on the M5 and the trains. Both WBA and Birmingham at home. Can't see anything but a West Brom win. I'd settle for a point though.
I’d settle for an attack!!!!!!!!
I'd settle for a goal from open play!!!!!!!

A what? I remember "shot on target". Just. None of this "goal in open play" nonsense. No. Let's have slow, defensive throw ins. My favourite. Maybe a main course of "pass it back to the keeper". A side of "play it out from the back" with an amuse bouche of "two of our lads contesting the same ball and knocking each other out". I'm at the back of the stand and fully expect to have to dodge one of our shots. As should anyone by the corner flags. And passing seagulls.
any reason why? what does he bring that makes him one of our best?
I’m going tomorrow cos it’s on my doorstep. Not sure what the rest of the 1,599 are thinking
Eastbourne, Eastbourne here we come
Eastbourne here we come
Superb support for a Tuesday night given the dreadful performance on Saturday and our drab few months
I thought exactly the same lolEastbourne, Eastbourne here we come
Eastbourne here we come
Wintle must be a joke?
Diedhiou should be starting, as should Ramsey.
He actually tries !
tries what though!! my god i'll get an answer one day!!
Alex Revell aka lawnmower used to try too!!! no1 was daft enough to name him as a preferred starting xi!
I wish Wintle wasn’t starting but I can’t see our very conservative making any radical changes.
Not sure that the other 2 are anywhere near match fit, but what do I know?
Have people given up on home games and now just choose to go away instead? Amazing for a cold wet horrible February eve…..

Wingbacks, three in midfield. Meite up top with Colwill playing 10.
I like that.
Won't happen!
Could keep the 4231 shape and lose the wingers, play 3 attacking midfielders behind the striker.

Our wingers are hardly bursting up the line with blistering pace, leaving defenders for dead getting in dangerous crosses.
Might as well try something different, we attack at a snails pace so may as well use the more technical players instead of wingers.
