With Slade already hinting at changes at the back what's the likely back four to be (or 5 if you include keeper) ?

I reckon it could be
Kuipers
EL-Abd, Tunnicliffe, Virgo, Wright.

The only other possible change could be to drop El-Abd keep Virgo at Right Back and play Hawkins at CB.

I think I would go with that. Plus I would drill into them they must not conced a goal and if they do they will be fined £50 each for each goal.

£50 a goal!! Is that all.

I suggest for every goal they let in we chop off a finger. Perhaps leave FDM out of this though...

What if we play like at Huddersfield, they would run out of fingers?!

I suspect after losing one finger they may have made a bit more effort to stop the other goals!!

And if they let in four or more, lop a cock off.

He was excellent up there last season, against his former club. I see no reason to drop him.

Do you not think he has been comparatively poor so far this season though? Just think he needs to realise that he is not guaranteed a place every week.

Right, so after three clean sheets in a row and a dodgy display by the back four on Saturday it's now time for another round of Kuipers bashing is it? How can anyone seriously think of giving Pelling a start ahead of Kuipers? He is one of the most best keepers in the division and has been in excellent form so far.

Whats all this fascination about Wright - he's not very good, has virtually no experience of football at this level and hasn't played for weeks due to injury! Are we that desperate?Even Slade said in the paper that he didn't think Wright would be ready by Saturday!

But i agree, he shouldn't be dropped.
