Whitehead's team?

"The board said to me that Saturday is really, really important, so we picked the team (against Leeds) for that reason, and our focus now is purely on Millwall and getting a positive result against them."

I wonder who the we were.

I hope he replied "Do you think that I don't know that it's important? I don't need you to tell me and I will pick the team, not "we"".

Regional slang maybe.

Coaching team probably.

Maybe, I wonder.

Re: Whitehead's team?

We could have put out our 'strongest' 11 against Leeds and would still have been beaten, so makes sense to me.

It'll be the coaching team. Calm down.

I imagine he's been told, don't play anyone who will play against Millwall though.

Yes...I picked up on that and wondered the same thing.....

There's nothing in this. He simply meant he and Tom Ramasut and the coaching staff. I just hope that the starting XI last night means that Perry Ng and Callum O'Dowda will be playing as full backs on Saturday, and that Mark McGuinness will be slotting straight into defence.

Contrary to many others it seems, I just did not see anything in Rubin Colwill's performance in the first half yesterday to suggest he should be starting on Saturday. I've not yet bought into the hype and I don't see that he's the first name in the team sheet. Has anything been said in the press about why he was substituted at half time?

It crosse3d my mind as well, but I'm sure he meant the coaching staff.

I'm calm, I'm calm; I've just taken my Diazepam.

probably subbed because he'll be on the bench on Saturday.

I've not seen anyone saying he should be the first name on the team sheet, where are people getting this from?

Re: Whitehead's team?

He probably did mean the coaching team, but he really doesn't need the board to tell him that Saturdays game is important

Re: Whitehead's team?

I don't know why we don't just all the players in a line and let the Captain pick out 11?
That way Alsopp can have a run out up front as he's always in goal, play Nelson and Simpson on the wings, because they want a turn to play up front

Rubin and Issac can play at the back and everyone gets a half as it's only fair!

We may as well go the whole hog and act like it's an under 12s team kick about if were not taking it seriously.

Forgot to add, 3 players should be arguing with each other about taking the pen as well, one of them can walk off sulking and the other two can wrestle with the ball until one of the mums shouts out hurry up or I'm off home without you.

Re: Whitehead's team?

Just a slip of the tongue surely. Instead of ‘we’ he meant ‘Vincent’

should there ever be a match which is not important to a professional football club?
