Game cancelled after half an hour as everyone just packs up and heads to the beach for a paddle and to build sandcastles, 0-0 draw awarded.

1-0 Oxford, towering backpost header from Tyler Goodrham. After the game Cameron Brannagan carried off the pitch on shoulders of Swansea fans who had spent the game serenading him about the goal that sent Cardiff City down. Rowett shocks everyone by not wearing a cap during the game. Marselino picked in starting lineup causing mass internet outages across the east of the globe.

End the season on a high with a swashbuckling display of flowing football and a 3-0 away win.

I know some of the comments are in jest, but we really, really should play Marselino on Saturday. And not just bring him on in injury time - either start him, or get him half an hour. And we should announce that we're doing so a couple of days before the game.
If we're serious about being a Top 30 club, then we need to work out how we're going to generate Top 30 revenues. It isn't going to ever be from our matchday revenues, even if the Triangle gets built. So it's got to be commercial revenues. And what we have, that noone else does, is Indonesia......so let's play into that.
(plus if we keep Erick happy, he's more likely to drop a few mill on another striker for us in the summer)
Otherwise - don't really care who plays. Give a game to whoever fancies it!

You will get people moan but he should start, it’s a nothing game, next season is going to be tougher than this and this is an easy win to put some money in the coffers for building towards that.
I’ll take left bach, thanks!Otherwise - don't really care who plays. Give a game to whoever fancies it!

Respectfully disagree with the general consensus here.
Pressure is off, yes - but I still want us to secure a 3rd away win (14th in total) and finish as high as possible.
I think the optics for recruitment of finishing 14th would be very different from 20th too.
Obviously rest Brannagan, Vaulks - anyone who is a risk or has been playing with injury.
But other than that, best foot forward. There are 2,600 of us making the trip and it would be nice to sign off a fantastic season in the best way possible.

Yeah, that should influence how we approach the game. Aim as high as possible. To set the highest possible baseline for next season and as an added reassurance when negotiating with new signings. It'll be a great day out for us fans but I hope the team give it everything we've got.What is particularly whacky about this game is that were we to win and results go our way, we could end up 14th above Norwich, QPR and Pompey.

Idris was just behind us in the SSU on Saturday, and he did not look like he'd be playing again this season.

This looks pretty good to me.
But I would also have a pre-planned substitution of Lino for RR after 60 minutes. So pre-planned that everyone in Indonesia knows it's going to happen in time to purchase streams for the game!

Helik has been carrying a knock for weeks. Will be interesting to see if Leicester are okay with us playing Nelson, or whether they just want him back in one piece ASAP.

A reminder, I have a ticket going for this match as I can no longer make it. You’d have to collect from me on the morning of the game; not too bad if you’re coming by car, I’m a 15 minute detour from the M4.

If that’s the case, I wouldn’t mind seeing Moore and Long in the middle with Ter Avest and Leigh either side.Helik has been carrying a knock for weeks. Will be interesting to see if Leicester are okay with us playing Nelson, or whether they just want him back in one piece ASAP.
Keen to get as close to mid table as possible now from a player transfer perspective.

Do they have a say in the matter?
I know you can have clauses where a player can't play against his parent club, but you can't recall a player between transfer windows and I didn't think that you could (legally) dictate which games a loanee at another club could or couldn't play?
They might ask us not to play him, and we might p**s them off if we do.....but, y'know, hell with them, really. We'll be competing with them next year so we don't need their goodwill. I'd like to see Nelson in yellow one more time.
I thought sides were keen for us to *play* the players they loan us, not to rest them!
