Strange on to me that??? We have a right back on the bench, who was an ever present until he got his red?????
 
Cant understand Murphy on instead of Bateson. A strange one as didnt Murphy have a shocker in midfield recently and Bateson I would have thought would have been the better choice. Lets hope it doesnt haunt us at the end. Thought Bateson was playing well before his ban.
 
It's a game of opinions, but I thought Peter Murphy was very harshly judged at Chesterfield. I think in the two starts he's made (Tranmere and there) he looked okay. Certainly not terrible.
And isn't this why Coley has a 20+ squad?
I'm a fan of Bateson and he's great going forward, but maybe with this away run it's time to look at someone a little more defence minded as an option?
 
Cheers Dan, back to Bateson, no issues with Murph as a player, but I do not have him as a RB, that is all!!!!!!
 
Anyway, back to today, please keep the info coming through Dan. Are you alone, or have you got some able assistants?????
 
Fair enough Val. I'm not saying Peter is a better full back than Jonny, but that he perhaps deserves a chance...

Teams are out.
 
Val, I'm flying solo...

So will try and keep you up to speed here at the same time as doing match reports, Twitter etc. etc. etc.
 
Most of the times I've seen Murphy play (before his switch to midfield last season) he's played at full-back and been very promising. I thought he'd be first choice right-back both last season and this before the arrivals of Lees and Bateson, respectively. One thing's for certain, I'd much rather have Murph at right-back than Winnard :D

Find it rather inexplicable why McConville starts ahead of Barnett however. Ah well.

Come on Accy.
 
Not many travelling fans, but making a racket away to our right. Maybe 50 or so?

All "relative" shaker me thinks:(
