Is everyone hiding from Covid? Game day and a late thread for today's match.
Another BWFC team for the season. Will he play all the new recruits? I've no idea which way this game will pan out, but we need to win if we are to push for a playoff spot.
2-1 Wanderers, but I wouldn't put the house on it.

Well you need to prove yourself in training with Evatt so expect all newbies in from the start with Joel Lynch signed at half time and subbed on for the 2nd half. (Sorry couldnt resist)
Keeper - expect that Gilks will start as its a tough opener. Gilks did really well in his debut vs this team, organised his back line in what was our best performance to date so expext him to start and then slowly make way for Jensen. Perhaps Jensen will get a home match to debut.
Back 4 think will be same. He will probably want to downplay how bad Delaney was at Tranmere. Soft pen, never a red, injured and no cover for opening goal. Fact is even before he was poor. Let his ear heal fully, give Baps the nod(though when has Baptiste put in 2 good games on the trot?
Think Declan John is the preferred man at LB but short on game time so think that will be Jackson.
Then it gets interesting. Lee needs to start as captain but then 4-3-3/4-5-1/4-4-2 anyones guess.
Will Miller be fit enough? Have Isgrove/Ghanoua done enough to start? Is that time pulled on Fonz? Where is Darcy?
Some headaches but loads of positive options. Should be exciting from 2pm onwards. It is a shame that this club once full of ex ramsbottom players and labourer managers cant allow thier fans to see the biggest day so far. Thats to our advantage though, should be anyway.
Not sure on the loan rules? Is it 5 in a squad or 5 on the field at any time.

"English weather" over here in the South of France so not going out for our normal Saturday winter picnic. Watched the whole last match video on the EFL ifollow app the other day so if they start from the ko today like they did against Orient and keep it up for the 90+ minutes I will also go for another win. COYFWM!

Its hard to work out what the team will be today – hopefully it will confuse Salford’s manager also.
I agree that Gilks will probably start – hope that Lukas Jensen is on the bench. None of this “no sub keeper” farce anymore please.
Back 4 the same? Baptiste seems to go from excellent to ridiculous – hope it’s excellent today.
Midfield – Lee is a must but does Williams also come in?
I assume that Marcus Maddison will start with Oladapo Afolayan on the bench.
This will be a difficult match but it is difficult for Salford also.
I am more than happy with the new signings and am, therefore, back to my optimistic self. I was very optimistic last year when Keith Hill signed 9 players and I drove over to Rotherham expecting good things. 90 minutes and a 6-1 hammering (which really could have been many more!) and optimism sunk.
So I am a little tempered about today and will be happy with a 1-1 draw.

Either way OM, the loan numbers will dictate the team which is why I expect Gilks to stay in goal. I’m not sure about Baptiste or Delaney. As you say Baps often disappoints after a good game but then Delaneys been poor for weeks. Like you I’d still go with Baps, because he looked good in a two alongside Santos. Though a left footer, Maddison seems to prefer the right wing so I’d suspect he’ll replace Isgrove with Arthur left of Doyle. That looks a formidable attack to me with Isgrove, Miller and Fonz on the bench to come on if needed. My only concern today is actually whether it will go ahead. I don’t know what the weathers like over there, but here in Barnsley we’ve had constant rain for four to five hours and no sign of it stopping!! If we do play I fancy us to win and I’ll go for 3-1 to the Whites.
