WTF?
Well, we were all very wrong! Everyone included Wilson, and only Bob included Flint but that was instead of Nelson! Nobody picked that midfield 3, either, although there might be a reason for that :hehe:
Mick read this thread and wanted to mess with your heads :hehe:
Christ, Morrison has been our best player for nigh on 4 years
I wonder what's happened to get him dropped
I thought this was going to be a boring first game in charge but i'm temped to part with my tenner now!
Perhaps Morrie is on his way out?
Moz is only just back from injury. Maybe he’s not 100%
Resting a few
Well hopefully he might think again after tonight.
Nelson, who has had a bit of a torrid time of it himself this season, by his own high standards of last season that is, looked something of a stalwart in that back four tonight.
I expect a few more surprises for next game too.
Wilson dropped for not performing well enough in training.

MM shows who's boss and what his standards are. Hopefully that produces the right reaction. I like it!
I don't disagree.
I wasn't meaning to big up Nelson, I was trying to highlight the huge change in our defence.
The fact that Nelson, himself on dodgy ground recently and pretty unknown only a year ago, is the only survivor from only a few months ago.
Crazy to think when we were so close to a play off final.
I don't know about the WOL piece, but MM was very candid in his post match interview about the need to impress in training and that no one in his team has got a free pass through to the starting 11. He also stressed how much he admired Wilson based on previous experience of him, but he will pick the team on performance not reputation or price ticket (to paraphrase).
Mozzer had a sore back. Bennett had a slight groin strain. Ojo and Hoilett were on fire in training.
I wouldn't expect anything less from a man who has just been given a 6 month contract, thats 24 weeks.
Not much time for molly coddling blowing smoke up youngsters' arses.
Wilson does have quality though and I am sure Mick will call on him, let's hope he rises to the challenge rather than says ah feck it.
Glad (if that's the right word) to hear about the injuries to key players rather than anything else.
