Providing you have an almost full squad,Tolley is certainly out and O'Connor suspended what team would you pick? I'd go for
Howie Stephens Sedgemore Tinson Ridler Aiston Street Edwards Tolley G Lowe Darby
Thanks JP changed accordingly.

Deffo a chance to give the likes of Edwards, Glenn Tolley and Stephens a run out.

God, I'd forgotten Mossy was supended as well - we're really down to the bare bones here.
Howie
Sedge Tinno Riddler Stephens
Edwards Street Sedge Aiston
Cramb Darby
Seems to be about the only fit 11 we've got. Actually, seeing as Quinny's unlikely to drop Rioch given the amount of first team absentees, it might be worth giving Stephens a run-out up front - we'll need someone small and nippy up there, 'cos 2 from Quinn/Darby/Cramb sounds ponderous in the extreme.

That's a good point. ;D
Alright then, Tolley jnr it is, I suppose. He can play on the right and Dave Edwards will have to play in the middle.
Still, there's a good chance we'll see a loan signing come in to fill the gap in central midfield, so keep that squad, but replace 'Sedge' 2 with 'last minute, low quality loan signing.'

I would'nt be surprised to see JQ start himself whatever the selection.

Given that: 1. There is a real possiblity of 3 youngsters starting Saturday; 2. DD may still be carrying an injury (and we've seen what has happened to players in that situation this season); and, 3. Several players may be playing out of position.
There may well be a very reasonable case for JQ starting, especially if it does protect DD and that is what has prevented him from showing fully what he is capable of.
It is a difficult one this week as the income is important should future income calculations be required.

Danny March has been added to the squad for Saturday, I know he's a defender but what position does he play?

How about trying a youth striker instead of an OAP one?
Youth balanced through the team then.

Quinn's scoring record against Morecambe is excellent -I bet he picks himself.

I reckon he will too, but I can't say I'm too happy about it. Darby's injury's a knock, rather than internal damage, so I really don't think it'll be enough to make him doubtful, and even if he hasn't hit the heights yet, I'd still have him over Quinny.
Actually, I don't like the fact that whoever gets picked up front we're going to have 2 'target men' (Cramb is useless in this role and blatantly hates doing it, but it always gets inflicted on him anyway), which'll provide an excuse for long, hopeful punts forward, and could potentially make for a pretty dire spectacle.
I much prefer it when there's a small, nippy forward to partner the target man, so if I was in charge I'd take a risk and give a youngster a debut up there. Won't happen though.

Good God - I've just remembered the last time (and I think only) time Cramb and Quinn played up front together - Scarborough away. That game was so bad it wasn't funny; the only reason we didn't lose as badly as Saturday was because Fatt Redmile and co. were as inept as us. ANYTHING's got to be preferable to that....

Maybe, but at 6'1 he's another target man, although I suppose he's probably a bit more mobile than Quinn.
Seriously though, I dread the thought of Quinn and Cramb - Scarborough is the only game I can remember where the team got resoundingly booed off at the end for getting a point away from home. Everybody thumped the ball up to Quinny, while Cramb, who needs it to his feet, touched the ball about twice all afternoon.
The solution to this one is difficult, because there really isn't much on offer. Since it's only the F.A. Trophy though, I reckon we've got a bit of a liscence to experiment, so I'd probably try either Aiston or Stephens up there - I know neither are strikers, but at least they're fast and skillfull attacking players. Shame Ian Fitzpatrick isn't fit, too.
