Subs - Esson, Devine, Vincent*, Agdestein, Polworth, Williams, Watkins*

 

* - If Vincent or Watkins is injured, bring Tremarco onto the bench.  If both are out, bring Pepper on as well.

Going by the well established first choice system it will evidently be a loose 5-3-1-1. It will also evidently be same again if the usual suspects are available. I would agree with Renegade otherwise as I don't like Nick Ross out wide. Let's hope that nobody fecks up the team sheet.

Same XI as yesterday.  If Vincent is injured then bring in Greenhalgh.

Agreed.

This. I'd like to see Polworth and Christie get some game time too. Local players, and all that.

It's got to be the same starting 11 as Saturday. Also Greenhalgh deserves another run out at some point in the game

We were a better team when Greenhalgh was out wide and Ross was moved into the centre.  We should start like that on Saturday IMO.

More to the point, skillful young players with great potential.

Brill x 11 please.

Despite winning 7 out of 9 I think it's time to change the formation and players...

Leave it to Terry and Co. there has only been one blip and the lesson was learned.

Nick should be very fresh after his substitution!

team of david ravens please. xxx

If it aint broke, don't fix it!

Greenhalgh looks like he will be a real winner as he develops.

 

Lukemackay--your post is thoughtful but a bit over the top so I am going to give it the... bird.

 

Sorry, that suggestion won't... fly.

Greenhalgh and Doran really stretched Hibs on Saturday and Greenhalgh gives us that extra bit of pace too. Also think we get more out of Ross through the middle.

Ain't it nice to be spoiled for choice.................Keep it going SirTB

I've never been a big fan of this "If it ain't broke don't fix it" attitude.  For one, it doesn't make sense.  On Saturday, Vincent got injured and thus had to be replaced.  Did that mean that the whole system was broken?  Did we fall apart?  No, in fact if anything we were better with Ross down the middle and Doran and Greenhalgh tearing up the wings.

 

In fact, it could be argued as well, that (Hibs at home aside) the away system is not broken, but it's not really working that great. Beat Kilmarnock, yet it was a fairly mediocre performance, a poor performance against Aberdeen, and an utterly dreadful one against Dundee.  James Vincent was also fairly poor in all those ties.  

 

Things away from home need to change, and I think taking Vincent out, moving Ross over and putting Greenhalgh in, and taking the game to teams as we do at home, would make a big difference.

Gotta blood a few of the newbies--just in case......!

This will fine-tune the team as well.

According to the Beeb, Vincent has a knee injury that he needs to see a specialist about so it would seem to me that Greenhalgh in for Vincent, with Nick Ross moving inside as per the change against Hibs would be the way to go. A chance for Pepper to get on the bench maybe ?

Possibly, unless Watkins or Allen are ready now.  Would've thought they might be higher up the pecking order when fully fit.
