Danny L not travelling with the squad today - injury

Team selection will be interesting then if Locks is also out, assuming Parts & THD are still out injured and Rollin not match fit for a full game doesn't that only leave JC, TB, & TC plus Kelly unless another Development Squad player makes a start tonight.  

Might mean we go with a back 3 unless Kelly starts. Not sure I'd feel overly confident with Bennett as a wing back mind you !!

Smith still in goal.

Meltdown commence

Looks like a proper reserve side.

Agh...O Clarke AND Upson again ! We cannot have both playing in the same midfield.

Rovers to sneak a 1-0 win.

Swop the 7 subs for 7 in the team and we might have a chance?

Would agree at home in a 4-4-2. Could work tonight though, especially as Matthews is probably part of a 3 man midfield.

[james246]

Sharpest striker in the club has still not started a single game

Gas in good voice around Hammersmith!!

[Rod1883]

I guess that Lines is suspended for three games then as he isn't in the squad.

[justin blue]

Hope we get a result we really do need something to lift the mood.

[axegas]

Seems like a more defensive tactic with one up top so we can try and snatch something on the road. A good chance for Kelly to impress, if he does well here, he might be able to win himself a place at left back at least until THD is fit again.

Looking at the QPR reaction to their team tonight. Its a full on reserve squad. Some of their fans have only heard of two of the players. We must have a decent shout, this is QPR reserves, not man u or arsenal.

Didn't they both start at Wycombe? Away from home it's surely more about stopping teams scoring than playing attractive attacking football. Although without Lines and Sercombe who do you expect DC to play in midfield?

Incoming 3-0 defeat then.

I think we can if we play proper full backs as we are tonight. Guessing it’s 433 looking at that team.

I like the look of Rodman but doesn't tickle DC's fancy?! Bennett flatters to deceive - all the gear and no idea (or final ball). We really need a younger Lines, the only player that can turn a game with those runs into the defence (Sercombe can do this but not from the wing). Not sure why we have a raft of battling sideways passing midfielders?!

Matthews sounds like exactly the player you are describing. Hope he is back ASAP. Got a feeling he is going to turn into a real gem.

I haven't seen him play a full game yet, was gutted he wasn't fit for Sarfend!
