Huge game, need the 3 points, Hull only got a point at home to Pompey

This is Will Finnie's 3rd OUFC game in charge this season! @Sarge will not be happy (but when is he?!)

If we stick with the formation as yesterday I can’t see us getting a point never mind all three it’s time Des freshened it up a bit try something different

Play 5-3-2 or 3-5-2 and see what happens

Either way the light show should be exciting

 

[Sarge]

Back to winning ways I reckon, with shots that have been off target of late hitting the spot. ..an emphatic 3-0

 

[Orkney Islands Yellow]

Time for change:

Cumming
ter Avest Nelson Moore Brown Leigh
El Mizouni Vaulks
Goodrham
Scarlett Goodwin

We will need significant improvement in urgency, intensity, technical ability and finishing.

If the fans who want to be brave and abuse players behind a keyboard because we aren’t picking up points constantly this season might want to go and support a team like Man City!

The hard times make the good times feel so much better! Every win will be vital this season but as a fan base we can’t throw our toys out the pram as soon as we get into a bit of a bad run!

I would also remind those fans who are giving out the abuse that the club is currently running a campaign all to do with mental health, might be worth remembering that before sending an abusive message to one of our players or to another fan.

On to Tuesday…3-0 win.

I don't think some of our fans are cut out for Championship football.
Chap near me seems to moan about everything, I think every player has been called something at sometime this season.
Honestly, if you can't enjoy this season, win, lose or draw, give up.

The club are bigging up the pre match as “something never seen at the stadium before”. I thought the pyro before the Norwich game was spectacular!

Hopefully we can show it ON the pitch too.

Are you looking forward to the display or cringe at the thought?

Looks like Hull have their own injury problems with at least 5 out and their manager turned on the fans yesterday aswell this will be a good time to get 3 points

+1 for 3-5-2

It made sense two games ago as soon as Dembele limped off and it still makes sense now.

 

[Stanford yellow]

Wouldn't be against sam long in centre midfield instead of Sibley Tuesday night.Will give more plus easier to move him towards a defensive role if needed

 

[Steve Gilbert]

If we are going for wing backs then I’d play the following:

Cumming
Long Moore Brown
Dale Vaulks El Mizouni Leigh
Goodrham
Harris Scarlett
​

Dale has played there before and I think adds more attacking threat than Kioso. Plus I feel Kioso could do with a game or 2 out of the side to recharge his batteries.
Long coming in for Nelson gives us more natural right sided defender.

Nelson is a right sided defender wouldn't leave him out.IMO.

I agree mostly, but would probably swap Long for Nelson, and also Dale for Ter Avest.

That shape is what we need and have needed for a couple of game imo.

Do people really think our best team doesn’t include Nelson? Swap Long for Nelson, God give me strength
