Tuesdays game and our squad

[Nudga]

Lawlor
Nixon-Olowu-Anderson-Senior
Kelly-Clifton
Sbarra-Westbrooke-Yeboah
Sharp

McGrath for Anderson after maybe 45-60 mins

That's the team to play if you don't want to go through to the next round.

Oof.

That aged well, Nudga.

I'm glad it did mate. I wasn't doubting the players that came in, mh thoughts were about continuity from the previous game.
Wholesale changes very rarely work out.

Seemed about 4 or 5 very tight offside flags when we were through on goal.

Sharp went through on goal, Ironside and Moly from memory.
Did anyone see any replays as I refuse to believe they were all offside.

Also what was that chancer Alex Bruce on about, handball or something in the box that the ref missed. Haven’t seen that back.

And where was Jon Taylor, he’s not injured already?

From what I can see on the Salford forum he seems to have gone off at ht with an Achilles injury - the poor guy just can’t get a break

But wouldn’t a break be a bit more serious?

Generally I would agree, especially after a good win in the opening game, but I think it was important to do this.

Grant is sending a message to all the squad to say they are ALL first XI players. It's up to them to prove they deserve a shirt. And they responded.

Which returns us to his excellent quote from a year or so ago, ‘Footballers are self employed… it’s upto them’
He’s got 22 chomping at the bit to be involved in ‘The Project’
He talks about the right characters, ie if they’re not starting they’ll do everything they can to impress and get a Start, and we saw that last night. He’s got them eating out of his hand.
