    We look a little light upfront.

    Not for me. I know Fletcher is away all of next weekend but for the sake of two games, I wouldn't bother.

    Winnall and Watkins are obviously good enough to start every week and if need be, give Shaun Tuton a chance up there. The only way the likes of Otis Khan, Tuton and Templeton are given a chance is if they're thrown in when we need them instead of going to another club and playing their youngsters.

    For two games I'd stick with what we have. Tuton is regularly making the bench and getting the odd few minutes. They must think he's there or thereabouts. If needs be let's test his mettle.

    I wouldn't say so. Tuton and Ash might be capable short term. Or we could go five in midfield until Fletcher/Watkins return.

    I do think we're short up front, especially for a play-off push, but I also agree with the above. We bring in a fair amount of young lads to develop, but most never get in the first team (Harry White a good example). Let's give them a go, little point in having them if the first time we're short we go and bring in yet another kid from elsewhere. Watkins and Winnall to start, Tuton/Khan to bring on if need be.

    If Marley's out - What about Hammill up front with Super Sam? Bring Chapman in on the left ahead of George Smith, Scowen on right, with Conor and brownhill in middle. Interchange, everybody is capable of covering for each other. Piece of piss this management lark. :D

    I think we'll be OK. Sam is back and with a little luck we'll have Marley available too. As others have said there doesn't seem much point just to cover for Fletcher while he's on international duty.

    Exactly! But he's still younger than Barry Hayles.
