Sounds like there’ll be at least a couple missing from Tuesday evening Stubbs and one other, would imagine Key will come back in as well, hopefully Tim will be ok to start the game but it wouldn’t be a surprise to see maybe up to five changes to the starting lineup from Tuesday all things considered.

I dont see too many changes from those that finished on Tuesday. Grounds deserves to start in a back three with Sweens on the right and Diabate in the middle and Hartridge coming onto the bench. Personally I would keep Jacko and Caprice in the starting 11. Nombe will have to start if Phillips has been unable to train post swollen knee. Will Matt rest Tim again knowing how influential he is or will he start with Coley who still looks like he is a work in progress regards the defensive/out of possession aspect of the game?

Can't see Matt Taylor breaking up a defence that's kept six clean sheets.....oh, hang on a minute! :rolleyes:

Would be surprised if Key doesn’t return unless he’s not quite right, As well as Grounds did the other night I still think he’s best utilised coming from the bench, I would turn to Hartridge who was playing very well before his injury in place of Stubbs.

Big Nige’s performance on Tuesday showed how difficult it is coming straight into the team after a time out through injury. I think KMT will start with Grounds on Saturday and Hartridge will play against Wolves next Tuesday.

Agreed although Hartridge may get some minutes as a sub v Barrow.

Earlier in the week MT was talking about this team being special. It certainly seems that way when you see this 🤣

KMT on Radio Devon this morning saying that Barrow’s “main striker” is suspended
