Will Lawrence play/start? Our very good run of form has coincided with Lawrence out and a return to form of Linesy!! - Lawrence seems to be one of Clarke's first choices - comment???

I am not a Lawrence fan - But he did have a good game against Hartlepool and his being on the bench would be a bonus tomorrow.
In Clarke we trust.

Agreed, he may have had a couple of poor games first up but was considerably better in that game and his class showed, not at all comfortable with people slating him so much, he could have a big part to play for us yet and IF we do manage to go up he'll be here next season as well and really wouldn't want people on his back before the season even started, but saying that even if he is fit I think he'll only be on the bench as you can't break up the mid pairing from Saturday imo.

As long as we play 442 he looks OK. He's just not suited at all to 352.

Him returning not good enough to not sign somebody to help see us through to the conclusionj. Ridiculous ,DC has had plenty of time to find someone available who would up our chances of staying in contention for automatics. You need a bit more than team spirit to see us through and if signing one or two more is enough to lose the "team spirit" then is the team spirit really as good as we think.

I'm happier with DC's assessment and decisions

I thought that Lawrence was putting in some good passes to Brown in the second half at Wycombe,sounds like he did well against Hartlepool. Montano took his chance of playing at Notts County (when Lawrence was injured early on ) and did well and continued the good work at Newport..lets hope that we have got enough players and that we don't get any more injuries. DC will have to juggle the defence about a bit whilst Lockyer is unavailable,it wont be easy but Rovers have a good run in and I am hopeful.

Can't believe DC hasn't earned enough good will yet that people won't give him the benefit of the doubt when it comes to this sort of thing.

We're third in the league. Trust our manager and get behind him and the team rather than calling his decisions ridiculous. His ridiculous decisions have got us to where we are today!

Hmmmm, an odd one. I wouldn't be surprised if we kept it the same.
However we all know DC likes to keep things fresh.
I think it's possible we see Lawrence come in for Bodin but to play on the left and get that tandem thing going with Browner.
This would shift Montano to the right, which wouldn't be too bad because he's more of a head down and run winger. With JC recently being preferred at RB it's less important to have a ''link man' wide right. JC as happy to cross it from the 18 yard box as he is the byline. And might get a few 'passes back to him, once Monty hits a deadend.

Controversially I'm not against that. I think Lawrence is a good player. I have no worries about him playing. Against Hartlepool he was very good, people reported he decent against Wycombe and against Morecambe he grew into the game and I thought was one of the better midfielders that day. Shame he's become such a scapegoat.

He didn't need to sign Gaffney either, but I'm sure you know better than Darrell...

He is fit yes, but will he start? Very doubtful I would have thought.

Just because we are third in the League (against most of the odds) does not mean we have to trust DC on everything he does and not give our opinion. The problem is of course that if we win everyone will say I told you so and if we lose then people will say he gets most decisions right. If we lose I will not be saying I told you so as I will be disappointed because of course I want Darrell to get it right and I can assure you all I will be 100% behind him. For me it is not just about tomorrow but the next nine games and I just feel that we needed a bit more quality in CM and on the right. Its just an opinion having watched all the games this season and not being convinced against the better sides that we have looked good enough so IMO with the present players it is a case of having to go up automatically and I say this because thankfully most of our games left are against lesser teams. I felt that hopefully with a bit of money behind us now we could have gone out and brought a couple in to show to the other contenders hat we mean business. Forgive me for having an opinion that is probably against the majority.

Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean you're right? DC, who got us promoted last season and up to 3rd this season as clearly thought this though and decided either a) not to sign another player, b) nobody suitable is available (there's not been many signings elsewhere today) c) the player(s) he wanted to sign weren't interested in joining the club.
I can see this is all building up to a match report blaming DC for not signing a player(s) if we don't win tomorrow, why don't you, lpgas & TBone just give DC the credit he clearly deserves?
