Selred Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 Who do we think will be starting on Sunday? I'm up for Lucic starting and McCoulsky coming on in final 30. Apart from that I want to really go at B'ham with a full strength team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Army 75 Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 I would like to see a couple of squad and younger players be involved. But expect the starting line up to be more or less the same. Maybe SM getting a start . Other teams could be depending on us . And I think it would disrespectful to them if we completely changed it .

Whitchurch1966 Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 Start with a strong team, make changes if we need to affect the outcome of the game or if we are already ahead. Plenty of criticism around about Huddersfield, the same should apply to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AppyDAZE Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 If we experiment next week, then I think you'll have to admit that Birmingham have been very, very lucky for these last two games. Same side, and do everything we can to win the game. We'd want the same.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Septic Peg Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 1 hour ago, cynic said: Strong side please, like to see Birmingham stuffed. McCoulsky on for Tammy with 10 to go (gives SM a run out and lets us give Tammy a send off). This. Would love to see McCoulsky alongside Taylor. Think it might work well. Especially if we are passing the ball rather than lumping it up directly to Tammy and Matty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had a chance of going down this Sunday we'd all be writing to the FA about Huddersfield. I'm all for utilising a squad but that was disgraceful. That was more my point.

CotswoldRed Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 I'm sure LJ will want to beat Arry and Steve so will worry about winning the game ahead of anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted May 2, 2017 Report Share Posted May 2, 2017 Same line up as Brighton. The only change would be McCoulsky on the bench to come on, as others have said, for Tammy after he scores a hat trick and gets a fantastic ovation and send off from the fans. This stays with him and he decides to come back next year to repay the love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The situations are very different however. It is our last match of the season, no reason not to try and finish on a high. If we had qualified for the play offs after this however I would be much more protective of players like Tammy in this match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Don Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 Got to be the same starting eleven we've had for the last five matches, we want to finish as high as possible and a 24k crowd needs to see a good performance to try and entice them to come back next season. Im all for giving SM fifteen minutes at the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoystonFoote'snephew Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 As I want to see Brum relegated (if only for employing Mr Bung the second-hand car dealer), its the same 11 for me , with SM on bench for Tammy in last 15 minutes. We can then give Tammy a rousing send off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LondonBristolian Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 It's a week since the last game and three months to the next one. I see no reason to give anyone a rest. I'd like the same line-up as recent weeks. Would be happy to see McCoulsky on the bench but otherwise we should try and go out with a comfortable win.

GrahamC Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 Only decision to be made for me is whether Mark Little plays or not. He and the club will already know if he will be offered a new contract, if he is then he should start, if not then Vyner or Taylor Moore should. No point in Geifer being on the bench either, so another opportunity for Max O'Leary to be involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think so. Life and ownership is about putting money into a business not just paying for the privilege of eating, drinking, watching when you actually dont own anything. Spirituall it has been 'my club' for 45 years buit that means i follow/support BCFC rather than any other team. I have never had any ownership nor will you, with respect The fans come to the match and pay their way, if he chooses to spunk his money away on poor decisions that's his business. Are you really are comparing supporting a football club that's been around since 1894 with having a pint from a brewery? The club is not a 'product' in the usual sense of the word, I'm sure my grandfather drank Watney's Red barrel back in the day but I've not spent my entire life following Watney's. I'm concerned some people are losing what the club should be about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vyner had a good game away at Newcastle IMO and wouldn't mind seeing him come on for the last 15 or so.

We are lucky though as you say and i was one who started criticising SL and had we have gone down I think I would have asked for a change. Why?? Because I completely lost my head at how the season and performances were going , money spent etc. Now obviously it comes across as fickle but thats how majority of supporters are nowadays. Results improved and im dead happy with us staying up let alone the potential to finish 15th! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samo II Posted May 3, 2017 Report Share Posted May 3, 2017 Same strong starting eleven, bar any changes forced by injury. I'd put the likes of Vyner and McC on the bench and look give them some minutes if we are doing well, but personally; after this mare of a season, I want us closing it out with a home win, and giving us the chance of finishing as high as 15th. That would mean we'd end on a handful more points than last season, and finish on an improved league position - admittedly a small improvement, but it's all about the aggregation of marginal gains; if that makes us even slightly more appealing a destination for the key players we need in the summer, then that is something. Plus; if Birmingham want to stay in this division, we should make them earn it - understand Huddersfield's logic in resting players, but we have no playoffs to worry about, so it's just another game to win.
