Suspect some #bhafc road travellers will be late arrivers. Left Argus House 2.15 and still 11 miles away from WHL on M25.

PS: that is why I didn't go. I have been through the nightmare for a Saturday match at WHL before.

Who is betting that Hughes gets a run out in place of Greer?

My thinking is that we need a winger to stop their left back getting forward. And we need Bruno fit. Bruno will be the first I will look for on the team sheet. And it is even chance he will not be fit. Rob Hunt (reserve RB) played for the reserves on Monday and he has never featured in the first team squad. Our lack of recruitment is looking like shortcoming right now.

Chicksen did not look so bad on the highlights. Commentators said that Chicksen let Scannell past on the inside too much but Scannell is so hopelessly right footed it did not matter, not until he got around on the outside for the Huddersfield goal, which was an exceptional finish. I share your misgivings though. I would certainly play Townsend if I were them. More worried about our right hand side if Bruno is still out, or if he plays when not fully fit.

You may be right about Hughes getting a run out in order to protect Greer or Dunk.

With regard to Chicksen at Huddersfield: as I said in the player ratings he hasn't had much first team football and is clearly a work in progress. The highlights really do not reflect just how poor he was, allowing yards of space on either side for Scannell to get past him unchallenged - and that was on the few occasions when he bothered to chase back from his wing back position on the half way line. Either Scannell had no marker at all or Gardner made half hearted attempts to cover. With hindsight we did very well to get off so lightly in the first half.

I want to see younger players get their chance and enjoy seeing them develop. They will make mistakes but Sami's formations will not do any favours for Chicksen's confidence. Baffling when you consider Sami's defensive pedigree.

Anyway that was last week and it will be interesting to see how we cope tonight.

Well that's an interesting line up - and a useful bench too.

nwgull · Oct 29, 2014

That defence looks fragile. At least Ince adds a bit of muscle and presence to the midfield.

The Wizard · Oct 29, 2014

Walton makes his debut vs Tottenham away... Baptism of fire.

If Townsend or Lennon play on his side, my prediction is for a Calderon red card

Calde v pace is an accident waiting to happen, sadly.

Best hope he is playing against Lennon the

How many miles?

martin tyler · Oct 29, 2014

Interesting lineup. A nice debut for Walton. Very Surprised mind you. Colunga eventually starts down the middle. Paddy is on from the start. My worry is who is right wing for Spurs. Townsend or Lennon could give Chicksen a very tough night

Baldock not even on the bench:if he's behind O'Grady in the pecking order things must be bad.

Good to see CMS back though
