35 pages and 3 major (10+ posts each) diversions to off-topic themes is my prediction for this thread. As to the score I'm sorry I haven't a clue!
 
Wonder if Hopper will get the nod? He's generally been rested hasn't he this season in this competition?

I think Scully will be in, whether that's wide right or at the expense of Jones, I'm not sure.

I'm going to guess at Palmer, TJ, Jackson, Walsh, Edun, Grant, McGrandles, Scully, Johnson, Hopper, Anderson.

Interesting, that could be read as 4-4-2 (or 4-4-1-1) with Anderson and Scully wide - makes good use of available players. I'd expect to see Montsma and Jones start to get more much-needed game time in their legs, with Walsh and McGrandles rested for Saturday. But I'm usually wrong!

Was thinking 4-3-3 still but Scully in the '10' as Jones usually is.
 
I’ll be surprised (pleasantly) if Wyke & McGeady are rested with the form they’re in and the prospect of a Wembley final/silverware. Maybe on the bench to bring on if Johnson thinks they could swing the match.
 
Is talking about a diversion, a diversion?

If Brennan Johnson takes a dive in the penalty area and no-one sees it, is it really a dive? It’s these philosophical debates that I log on for.

Ah yes but is a man with a death watch beatle in his wooden leg better off than a man with a tin leg in a Thunderstorm?
