Not quite a must win but definitely a must not lose.

Assuming no Hampson or Kosylo.

          Thompson

Morgan.  Mullarky. Hannigan. White

           Osbourne. Furman

   Mooney.  Hancock.   Colclough

                     Hulme

Alty 2-1 Torquay (Hancock,Pringle)

Front four picks itself.

Not sure of the obsession with Furman; I haven't seen anything from him to warrant a starting place.

He is sharper than Moult and most definitely better than putting Toby in there, not sure if Marriott is fit

I'd go Furman and Moult.

Now is not the time to drop your captain.

I'd also be tempted to try Osborne as the attacking midfielder. Hancock has been pony for weeks.

I think the argument for Furman is to play him in front of the back four with Osborne a more attacking player.

I'm not forecasting the team, just hope the 2/3 training sessions have worked wonders and we turn up positive and get at Torquay from the off. Positive result would be nice.

It’s pretty much Saturday to Saturday now for the rest of the season for us so the extra rest & time to train will hopefully kick in.

Seems like the first ‘normal’ home game in ages-ie not a huge local derby with the away fans banging on about tickets, not got half the ground shut by the council & covid concerns beginning to ease nationwide.

I wouldn’t want to predict the team or anything but suffice to say no more hard luck stories about playing well & getting nothing, no more 2-0 down then start playing just be at it 100% from the off & give your all lads & see where that takes us. We beat these on their own patch comfortably and we can do it again.

Agree with this. Our best spell was with Moult and Furman in the middle.

Would be telling Moult not to go past the half way line all game. Too slow to get back these days. Part of the reason we open up like the red sea when teams break and run at us is because he isn't able to keep up.

I think I'd prefer Moult and Pringle, like earlier in the season.

Our form was pretty decent back then.

Pringle gets caught out too often when he is that deep. Needs more space to work. If you are gonna play him you would play him in the number 10. Personally I would give him a chance at 10 since Hancock appears to be out of form

Things hopefully back to normal at home for the first time in weeks so we have no excuse. Torquay will be a good measure of where we are at now. I still think we have enough to stay up comfortably. Other teams have problems too.
