Not sure if Lacey is fit but i'd like to see the above

I like the look of that

I'd probably swap out Brindley in place of Lacey and DKE at RWB, not convinced Lacey has been fully fit yet this season.

Agree with this. I’d also, if fit, start Rawlinson and put Cameron to the left in place of Chicksen.

Can't see much wrong with that.

I can, Francis for one...

[KCNotts]

Vincent should absolutely start, as should Mitchell, up front with Woots. But we all know JOB will start instead 🙄

[St Kitts Magpie]

Vincent for Francis for me. Is Callum definitely out?

And me. Deserves his chance

[maddogslater]

Same as Tuesday apart from Vincent for Francis for me

I moaned about Francis myself after the Tamworth win...and then regretted it, thinking it was harsh.

We need that holding midfielder and I've got a feeling all those short passes eventually lead to the nice pass that Mitchell turned into his first goal. That skill of his is important for IB's style and if it's any consolation, the opposition might be as frustrated by all his passes as some of our gerrit forward brigade - or at least sent to sleep before getting the sucker punch! I'm still clinging on to my hopes for Ed Francis...

IB might go Palmer and JOB again, but IMO we can't go into this run of games without a holding midfielder.
Vincent should get minutes as a sub, but we shouldn't risk throwing him into a game like this - it'll be absolutely different to the Tamworth part-timers, two levels below.

Stockport have signed Bolton captain Antoni Sarcevic and say he's available to play tomorrow.

Sarcevic has played every league match this season for a Bolton team 4 points off the play offs in League 1.

Someone's (Stockport/Chesterfield/Wrexham) going bust in this league in the next 2 years........

Unlikely. They all have a fair wadge of cash. 2 of them have very wealthy backers.

....Patterson
Brindley, Cameron, Lacey
Nemane, Palmer, Vincent, Chicksen
......RR
.......Wootton, Mitchell.

Think Vincent deserves a chance and Nemane is better on the right than the left.
