    v SSB's Saturday

    Seems like an age since we played but back to business this weekend at home to the Sheep.
    If fans were allowed obviously they would be bringing 17,000 but we'll just have to watch it on TV. So will they.

    Saw a wee video today of Chalmers looking very sharp in training, scored a Messi while Bolton watched and admired.

    Difficult to know what mood the Sheep will be in after Del Boy getting his P45. Hopefully on a jolly until the next manager comes in.

    Not sure if we have any suspensions or injuries that will affect team selection, anyone know? Butcher, Fuchs?? Hopefully not.

    Benji
    Smith Edwards Reynolds Robson
    ..............Butcher
    Fuchs Pawlett Sporle
    Chalmers Shankland

    Potential kamikaze selection there but Pawlett and Chalmers to run at their back 4, Adrian to give width on the left and cover for Jamie, Shanks with a get it up ya V Sign right into the cameras after netting a hat trick. Attack attack attack.

    I may change this after criticism from other posters....bring it on Arabs.

    I like that line up Stokie. And I totally agree about Shanks having a point to prove. We definitely need to be more positive than recent weeks. Get up and at em.

    Fuchs is available. I thought he was suspended but having checked the latest SFA Disciplinary list, it’s only Ross Millen of Killie that has a suspension this week so happy days!

    Disappointingly for the Funny Lot, it would appear that ‘Gowser’ is free and able to play this Saturday also.

    Lets get stuck right into them from the off,no chance a manager will be appointed before Saturday as Cormack is still looking through the 5000 plus applicant's CV's.

    Why not? It looks like a decent starting 11 to me.

    Personally I'd definitely start with Appere over Chalmers.

    They are wounded. Let's go for a convincing win and 3 points.

    I fancy StJ will beat County and get 3 points on Sat. So we need to match them on Sat to give us the best chance of securing 7th in the battle (of the bottom six) to come.

    C'mon United - get right in to them on Sat!

    For their own good, I’m frankly amazed that DeeTV is informing the frothing Funsters as to how to dodge it and NOT watch them.

    Yeah, Appere for Chalmers. Chalmers is never a striker. His shooting is woeful. That's not to say I wouldn't have him in the team, I just wouldn't have him in as a striker.

    I'm on board with kamikaze. Big advocate of Clark's to be honest, but would be delighted with that starting line up.

    Only thought is we should only play Pawlett if we will offer a contract beyond summer. If not, play Clark (as a striker) or try Appere again. I am in the minority that are not at all convinced by Appere though. Hope to be proved wrong there.
