If Simkin plays their attacking instructions become quite simple. Shoot on sight and hang high balls under the bar.
Or just give the hall to Walsall defender to pass back to him.
I’d honestly give him a break. The usual mantra in football is owning the the shirt until you deserve to lose it. He’s had a couple of mare games so it feels right that Hornby, who’s done nothing wrong when we’ve seen him, deserves a chance until he doesn’t.
I just don’t see Sadler changing the back four, which means Simkiss keeps his place. I’d feel more comfortable if Hornby was chosen, but all we can do is hope for a clean sheet whoever plays!
Simkin will keep his place, will be more interesting what he does with McEntee.
If he brings him in, Okagbue on the bench? Daniels misses out completely?
Or go unchanged, McEntee on the bench?
My guess would be unchanged. Especially as everyone has had a break.
Just on route and weather is getting worse the more North we go.
Just in the Weatherspoons in Grimsby, are there any pubs near the ground for away fans? Will get bus across to Cleethorpes
Just had the usual fish and chips from gr8t whites, absolutely lovely.
Has the weather improved?
Sky now medium grey
No, still raining.
Hopefully we get to see some minutes into George Hall. Some blues mates said he would be the best player in the league
McEntee not even on the bench. Now so many are fit, it’s incredible competition just to be on the teamsheet.
Pleased to see Simkin keep his place but after 8 goals in two games conceded I’d have liked to see Captain Fantastic back on today. Tremendous loyalty from Sadler to those in possession of a shirt.
Barrow lost 1-0 at Accrington - good start to the afternoon
Will Smith get a good reception from Walsall fans? I wouldn’t clap him!
I think he’ll be between a Rock and a hard place…
Why? What’s Will Smith done to you Saddlertd?
I hope he doesn’t get too much protection from the man in black this afternoon.
It’s more or less what you’d expect. But it can be difficult to play. The margins between the clubs are very tight. How it will be after fortnight of trainings, who knows.
