So do we think Luke Leahy will switch to No.3 to allow Sam Nicholson to take the No.11 shirt or will Sam select No.28 his first number at Hearts and also his squad number in that clip of the Rapids? Imagine Sam would stick to 28, or maybe 7? Ehmer will be 5. Not sure on Baldwin/Grant.

Geoff Twentyman wore 3 and played CB all through the 1990 Promotion season.

Geoff Twentyman wore 3 and played CB all through the 1990 Promotion season. Both wouldn't be surprisingly. 7, 8 and 10 all available so some "high profile numbers" ready for the taking.

Anyone else Think he has a touch of the Bodins about him? Was thinking the same thing after that missed chance. Obviously not the finish, but that's all everyone seems to be talking about. The first touch from the long ball was quality, he then beat the keeper and put the defender on his backside. Bodin used to do that sort of thing all the time. Fake to shoot and then cut back in at the last minute. He has impressed in spells during games. If he can get more consistent and find a bit more composure, when he gets into his positions, we will have a great player on our hands.

Anyone else Think he has a touch of the Bodins about him? Yeah I actually thought that Tuesday night. And to be fair he’s been better for us in his first few games than Bodin was in his first few if I remember right. Once Bodin got going he was a class act for us. One of my all time Rovers favourites. UTG

One of my all time Rovers favourites. UTG Yes, agree with both. Whatever system Tis settles for Nicholson has to play imo. He’s the first player since Bodin, including JCH, to make me watch when he collects the ball. I always feel something good is going to happen. Add that composure to his play and he will do even better. UTG!

I wonder if Tutonda could get the excitement going as he is pretty good at driving forward with the ball.

I've got really high hopes for Sam. He was one of the signings I was most excited about

Surely there’s goals on that set up ?

All good suggestions but I’d like a place for Daly. I just think he is the most natural finisher in the squad. We’ve not got many strikers but he takes chances and I’d like to see him with Oztumer. Oztumer runs with the ball, plays with more pace and could play those through balls that we’ve not seen so far for Daly to move on to. In that 4231 of socrates I’m not sure you’d squeeze Daly in. But I think socrates is right Tis will go for that and have Westbrooke and Grant as the 2 and Tutonda, Oztumer and Nicholson as the 3 and Hanlan if fit. Next few games should be a more interesting watch. UTG!

Surely there’s goals on that set up ? Was chatting to my mate and talking sunday line up possibilities I dont think we will change formation although i would love to see 2 up front. Also i dont think we will risk Hanlan unless we desperately need him. I think Koiki did ok in the left mid role, but i would love to see Barrett have a start as he seems up for having the ball and being creative. Also if we insist in playing Upson i think it's time for westbrooke to be added to the starting line up. We would have a LOT of creative players then and I truely believe Daly is a finisher. I believe Upson is in favour under PT so have kept him in and replaced Grant with Westbrooke 4-2-3-1 (Creative) ---------------Jaakkola ---------- Hare --Ehmer---Baldwin--Leahy ----Westbrooke---Upson-------- Nicholson ----Ozzy ------Barrett --------------Daly --------------- 4-1-4-1 (Creative) ------------------Jaakkola ---------- ---Hare --Ehmer---Baldwin--Leahy ------------------Upson------------- Nicholson--Westbrooke--Ozzy--Barrett -----------------Daly ----------------- What ya think?

The first one except Tutonda who I think could be as good as muzzy on that left wing in for Barrett
