Low has to start which is very harsh on the other 3 central defenders. So either a rest for Keogh or move Leahey further up. On the attacking front we need to mix it up a little somehow. Hanlan or Vokes might need a 'rest'.
Hope Joe is fully recovered from his illness - yes, I know he’s been on the bench at least once - but if he had Covid anything like as severely as our daughter did, it will take some time. (I don’t know what he had of course.)

Hats off to all who have travelled today. Hope you have a pleasant day out by the sea and bring home the points. I shall enjoy from Vipienne.
As for the badge, not one I like.
It's lovely weather in Vipienne today. I can sit here, in the garden, with a few beers straight from the fridge and watch the match.
Hats off to those who travel, safe journey and hopefully returning with a 3 point haul.
Weather a fair bit better than yesterday Oop here, less blowy although it'll still probably piss it down later.
So what do we reckon today ?
I'd like to see Taylor or Sadlier in for Hanlan.
Also like to see Leahy back in midfield, but if that happens I suppose that could be at the expense of say Hanlan ? With just Vokes and Gmac up front

Not sure starting 2 defensive midfielders and a back 5 is the way to go today but we'll see soon enough
Bit baffled by the need to have both Keogh and Tafazolli as subs. Surely unnecessary. Surely Breckin can be trusted with a place on the bench?
Vokes, McCleary and Keogh all on the bench.
Hanlan, Taylor and Phillips up front
Here's hope Brandon has his one good game in 5 today

Interesting choice up front - guess Vokes needed a rest, also gives us lots of speed out wide.
Feel for Breckin, not even getting on the bench, but I dont see him week in week out in training...
Let’s hope Phillips is a little less manic on this occasion.
Does anyone know if JJ is still injured, or just not making the 18?
Would be a real shame if his (expected) last season is ruined by injury
Shall we have a sweep on how long it’ll take for Phillips to get sent off? I’m going for 48 minutes.
Think he's injured stil
Actually might be nearer 8
I’ll go35.
Wonder how many times he was sent off at Shrewsbury last season.
Must admit it feels ‘brave’ playing him with a card happy ref. Can I have 22 minutes in the sweepstake please
I'll go for 27 minutes probably for 2 yellows.
Phillips is doing that pointing thing already - where he points at a man but doesnt pick anyone up as though he is exempted from defending
Not a great corner from Leahy, far too deep & then we switched off in midfield and at the back almost gifting them a goal
I’m liking Phillips so far today.
Get in Taylor
Liking Taylor too.
Bloody buffering ! I missed it
Get in though !
Fleetwood are very poor. Good start from us
He really feathered that header in perfectly!
Phillips yellow on 42, second on 76
Get in Potts - lovely passing footie from the boys there
That was an absolutely fucking brilliant goal.
