Id be fine with that line up but Hart will struggle to last the game.

If Hawkins plays and marks Ricky Lambert we are SCREWED...

Who would you have mark him?

Virgo, with someone like Dicker or Fraser dropping back into the gap between their forwards and midfield when we lose the ball and providing a shield infront of him.
Stop him getting the ball first and foremost.
Also, a good KICK in the first five minutes wouldn't hurt.
Worst comes to the worst get El Abd to mark him man to man for the game. More mobile than Hawkins.

I'll buy that last one.
For me, Virgo has gone AWOL in his marking duties recently, and it beginning to worry me.
I like the idea of Dicker/Fraser being a covering midfielder, but it does stifle forward play.
A good shinning is a VERY good idea, though.

Jason Jarrett will be right back. El Abd in the middle with Virgo and Borrowdale on the left
THe Bristol Rovers fans think Lambert is lazy, it is Stuart Campbell we need to watch out for. Oh and that nippy one that always plays well against us no matter who he plays for, Kuffour

Jarrett at RB would not fill me with much confidence. He's barely looked interested, and couldn't tackle the skin off a rice pudding.
As for Lambert being lazy - most Albion fans seem to have Murray in that bracket as well, but that lazy bastard doesn't half notch a few.....

Looks like JArrett may miss out. Just going by him playing right back on Saturday and something Insider said on here over the weekend
Lambert is so lazy he is not on 35 goals yet. 27 is a rubbish haul for this stage of the season

El Abd is a liability at centre back, as shown again on Saturday. Useful sub because of his versatility, but that's about it. If he does have to play I much perfer him as a defensive midfielder, as his 'moments' cause less damage.

I think Hawkins should be given a go personally.
Had a few major cock ups to his name this season but he is at least a centre half. Having seen El Abd's powder puff 'tackle' during the run up to the Oldham goal Id rather he stayed on the subs bench! Just hope we dont miss Whingy too much.
