A good Albion away following at Ashton Gate
It's not so much the idea of resting him, more the attitude that "it's bristol city, so we can afford to rest" as if it's a given we don't need our strongest team to face bristol.
Not that nervous.Hold me.
Agreed. Start him and pull him off early if necessary! Gus does make some odd decisions.
Looks like Gus has got one eye on Saturday, which is a bit of a six pointer the way Bolton have been playing of late. Although three points is massive for ourselves tonight, as I can see Palace drawing and Boro possibly dropping points. It's a fine balancing act, but it's a big call to rest a man who has just scored a hat trick and must be brimming with confidence and also to bring Bridcutt straight back in. Sure he is a big player for us but two wins on the bounce without him and five goals to boot....mmmmmmm interesting.
I bloody can't stand Warren Aspinall
Tempted to tune into the away commentary already
Barnes is sick according to Naylor on Twitter
Who would you like to be your sub................If we win this tonight I might well pull myself off.
Personally I do not buy all this 'need a rest', 'time to settle in' stuff. If you are a professional footballer it is your job to be fit.
If I had scored a hat-trick 3 days ago I would be GAGGING to start the next game.
