No time to feel sorry for ourselves as we face the long midweek trip to York tomorrow night. The hosts find themselves in 17th place in the table with 2 wins and 2 draws from their last 5 games. In fact, they only have 1 league defeat since mid-November.

George Francomb limped off on Saturday so you would imagine he would be a major doubt for this game. Marc also mentioned that Prior might struggle with 2 games in a short space of time. Bowerman and McShane continue to miss out while Marc said that Rutherford had a chance to return on Saturday against Kidderminster.

Predictions:

York City 1-1 Dorking (Blair)

3,995 attd (102 away)

Possible Lineup:

                                     Male

    Fuller            Cook               Craig          B.Taylor

Muitt               Pybus                J.Taylor                Blair

                                  Carter

                                 Ottaway

Subs: Gallagher, Hollis, McManus, Briggs, Moore

 

Marc hinted at returning to a back 4 for the rest of the season (or certain games) so the above feels like the only option with the players available. Carter could play up top instead of Ottaway to leave space for Moore or McManus to come in to the midfield as well.

Don’t want to intrude too much on the Hammers chat, but the West Ham fan who sits next to me won’t go again while Moyes is in charge playing defensive football. 

I think the key in NL is to flexible. Many teams are really physical and press very well so it hard to play lovely possession football out from the back. Interesting that v Barnet Marc went direct and that’s how we got first goal. Great to have lots of ball but needs an end product and that is where having the flying wingers back should make a big difference.  And Alfie back.
