Starting line up ? Prediction?
Hornby
Threlkeld Ridehalgh Canavan OC
Songo'o Gilliead
Crankshaw Cooke Eisa
Cook
Subs
ROD Staunton Foulds Watt Angol Vernam Sutton
Been a good preseason apparently looked pretty good too which scares me. They've lost a couple of decent players from last season and with us strengthening I can only see us winning 1-3, Big Cook Little Cooke and an Eisa rocket.
Still think the defence looks a bit dodgy especially left back and we definitely need another striker but there are grounds for optimism this season.

Only changes I see that is if Songo’o isn’t fit Sutton will start, Angol might start instead of Cranky and a new striker on the bench. Apart from Songo’o being injured I don’t think today’s starting XI was more than a player or two off what he sees as his starting team

Think Angol may get the nod at LW, Adams clearly rates him.
Keeper is a coin flip.
If Songo'o is fit then I think its him and Watt. If not it'll be Sutton and Watt.

I hope he does this time but I can't see it.

Lots of pre season positivity, so you know we're losing this and getting an early reality check. Its the City way

Subs: RoD, Staunton, FCD, Songoo, Vernam, Eisa, Lavery
Full of optimism for a new dawn, which will last all of 10 mins when we go behind early. You just know it.

I’ll be interested to see where Gillead plays today. Everyone seems to have him down in the inside forward/winger position but I think you’re right and Adams sees him as a centre mid who can play the wing role if needed.

I hope he sits there with Sutton today, Watt does not suit this type of formation and having him and Sutton there will cost us goals.

Aye. Lots of optimism pre season and the team sheets announced today and I just think 'meh'. What part of that team is materially better than last seasons?
Hopefully Adams Kung Fu is strong.

I'd argue the defence is weaker the width is weaker and the sitting 2 is the same shite. Looks like the chefs are going to have to do it between them.

I'm guessing that yet again we'll be complaining about a lack of pace after the first few games.

It suddenly doesn’t look that strong does it?
Hopefully we’re well drilled and Derek knows how to beat Exeter.

Looking at twitter we're strong as fuck with an equally strong bench 🥴 Looking at Twitter Angol is a ‘great player’ and the bookies might as well pay out now on promotion. Threlkeld and Ridehalgh for FCD and Wood, Angol and Gilliead for Crankshaw and Vernam. I’m not convinced that’s a massive upgrade on last season. Fiacre, Evans and Foulds on the bench isn’t exactly strong either. There’s only Lavery and Songo’o to come back too, Adams must be a hell of a coach then.
