Should be one the harder games from now to the split. Play half as well as we did on Saturday and it’ll be 3 points. Same team as Saturday for me. 

[Real Ranger 3,195]

Interesting to see if Clement rotates the starting 11 again. I’d like to see him start with the same team that lined up against Hearts.

[ayro 3,001]

Butland

Tav Goldson Balogun Yilmaz

Lundstram Diomande

Lawrence

Sterling Silva Cortes

 Any win will do.

 

[Ben10 2,272]

I'd be tempted to start Silva in behind Dessers

Seen a stat the other day that Clement rotates our squad more than any other manager in the league does.

That shows the competition for places and the positive attitudes that must run through the squad, that the reserves are pushing the first team.

[Super Ally Scores Again! 472]

Just win

Got to be the same team who started against Hearts 

Options off the bench again if we need it - Got to trust Clement

[psb07158 33,275]

Not sure if he will play Lawrence in this game so could be one we start Sterling and push Dio further up, or allow Silva to play with Dessers 

[westenclosure2008 797]

I think it’s a given that there will be changes from Saturday. I wouldn’t be surprised if Barisic and McCausland came in. Up until this point the rotation has been working.

[bluenoz 30,844]

Could be risky playing Lawrence on that surface. There are certainly interesting choices these days.

Possibly make a couple of changes to protect the likes of Lawrence and Souttar knowing their struggles with injury.

His rotation so far with the often injured has been excellent. 

It helps that we've had quality replacing them, but we dont seem to be picking up those niggles as often 

[Hamie 4,842]

A wet cold plastic pitch. 

Any win whatsoever will do, hopefully PC and the lads deliver.

We are away, can you fix the order of the team names in the title OP

Like ffs 

[Assegai 7,874]

I feel like that surface robs us of one player a season.

[born a blue nose 90,787]

Have reported Stuart for such a bad match thread 

[The Godfather 71,896]

If we drop points it's the OP's fault 

[G.E.C. 18,782]

Today this could be the biggest game of our lives 

[KBOO72 4,372]

Don't really mind what the lineup is as long as it doesn't contain Scott Wright. 

Massive, massive game. Any win will do and then we can look forward to a good run of fixtures up to the split. 

[superallysbears 7,583]

We'll score 3 or 4, yeah you can say it's going to be tough and I think it will be but we are playing out our skin at the minute.

[SeparateEntityMyArse 53,728]

Fully expect him to make a couple of changes. I think it'll be along the lines of

                Butland 

Tav. Goldson Souttar Borna

       Lundstram Sterling

Mccausland Diamonde Cortes

                Dessers

 

 

[.Williamson. 82,236]

Thanks to @MisterC for sorting that mess of a thread title out, now I can continue with my team selection;

Butland

Tav Goldson Souttar Yilmaz

Lundstram Diomande

McCausland Silva Cortes

Dessers

Just picked Dessers in my starting 11 for the first time ever there

And while I'm here...

Once again, just win. Any win will do, 3 points and up the road. A dominant win would be a bonus but on that park against a team in form it might not be straightforward. 

[Jimfanciesthedude 24,547]

Take a shitty, ground out, hide behind the couch, Butland MOTM 1-0 win to the bears

This is a massive game

[STEPPS BOY 73,924]

Massive game this and the one that other mob will be looking at for us to drop points.

Forget the nonsense about the pitch, play the best team, play like we have been doing and get the three points.
