It's a pretty big game tbh apart from the money big psychological difference between finishing 11th or 16th also the way we are viewed by targeted players .

Correct, however the players almost certainly couldn't care less.

Give a couple of the youngsters a start, see how they do, there nothing to play for, and they can't be any worse than some of those being played, can they ?

The ground where Sam Allardyce first heard the away supprt chant "we play on the floor" .

A win or at least a good performance might be in Slavens best interests .

it's probably in our (the fans) interest to finish 16th, the board will have to react and can't dress it up at all

Could be the difference between 3 or 4 places in the table.
Whats that these days, 6-8 million quid? Half of our increased revenue in the hapless stadium.
I reckon the board will think there is plenty to play for.

I suppose that depends if you went to Burnley away that season (which was 3 days before the Posh game).

Adrian: Byram: Masuaku (if fit): Fonte: Collins: Fernandes: Lanzini: Snodgrass: Feghouli: Ayew: Fletcher

Subs: Randolph: Cresswell: Ogbonna: Quina: whoever whoever whoever (no one we are offing)

Score some goals, have some fun. :thup:

Your most probably right about that, the money factor will allways come first.
A shame though as ideal type of game to play them in, they would hopefully want to impress the manager.
They've clocked up a fair few miles running up and down the subs touchline, so would be good to see how they get on kicking a ball.

Sorry can't get the hang of the quotes

It's all well and good saying play the youngsters...

Who are they? What positions do they play?

We are short of a couple of CM's... Cullen is on loan and going to be playing at Wembley and to my knowledge is our best young CM.

Which other young CM do you want us to play?

Adrian
Cresswell
Reid
Collins
Fonte
Byram
Fernandes
Nordviet
Lanzini
Ayew
Calleri

Given our options it's only Nordviet and Calleri most want out...

Yes Fletcher could play instead of Calleri... buts that's about it ain't it?

Rice, Burke, Oxford, Cullen Quina and Martinez appear to be our best prospects

Quina for Ayew?

What else can he do.... all well and good calling for youngsters but not for the sake of it...

To be honest I really can't remember when I've been less interested in a WHU fixture. I imagine after this season there are many who feel the same. 1-0 Burnley. And the end of a season to forget.

--------------Adrian-----------------
Byram--Reid--Rice--Masuaku
-------------Nordveit-------------
Ayew--Fernandes--Lanzini--Quina
-------------Fletcher-----------------

Would need to tell Nordveit if he puts on a cowards display like yesterday he's getting stuck in Sullivan's sex dungeon though.

Quinn for Ayew, Fletcher for Calleri ,why not
Ideal chance to play them from the start against one of the teams in the bottom half.
Does calleiri give you any confidence that he will score?
(He will score now I've said that)

It would be nice to think that after Sunday, and the season in general, the players might have a proper go for the sake of the travelling fans. Also, for some of those players it might be (should be) their last game for us.

I have a feeling Vokes will pose problems.

I don't see Quina and Fletcher both getting selected. Fletcher maybe.
