I really hope that this is wrong other wise it really is all going to go wrong for Gunn

why change the system again, over the years it has been proven that English defenders can very rarely play 3 or 5 at the back. Otsemabor at a wing back! thats crazy he barely has any positional sense anyway ask him to have to think were he should be...only going to end in tears.

It seems that the management team don't even know the style of game they want to play, playing the formation depending on the opponents takes more intelligent footballers than the strong character we have at the moment.

Gunn needs to stick with the basic team that started on Saturday, tonight gives everyone a second chance, if they don't grab it, then make changes...what is preseason all about if it isn't to sort this stuff out.

Possibly only slightly more accurate than Chris Fakey, but ColneySpy says.... (NCFC) - samcd84, Aug 11, 16:14:35
- Of course you do have to remember that ColneySpy is a renowned horseshit artiste. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Aug 11, 16:41:00
  - I saw loads of responses to this and thought I was maybe thinking of someone else (NCFC) - pants, Aug 11, 16:44:16
    - Yeah, it's the one that told us about the Hucks Consortium. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Aug 11, 16:45:48
    - Yeah that's his main modus operandi. He also pretends to go to training. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:45:25
      - so he's a player then? (n/m) (NCFC) - camcan, Aug 11, 16:52:06
        
        arf. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:54:07
- SO he drops the better ones and keeps the worse ones in? (n/m) (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Aug 11, 16:35:30
  - Its clearly bollocks... where has he just seen training? (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:36:49
- Thing is... as much as I've loved the speculation.... (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:32:33
- If it is the case then sounds like Mr Crook is pulling the strings tonight. (n/m) (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Aug 11, 16:29:48
  - Thought they'd had a big falling out? (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:34:03
    - Exactly..maybe toys thrown out of pram and its a case of go on then you do better? (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Aug 11, 16:36:44
      - So where did these rumours come from? (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:38:23
        
        Pink un message board (n/m) (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Aug 11, 16:42:17
        
        So, my guess is that it just didn't happen. There may have been some gesticulating... (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:44:45
        
        Prob right..imagine there is certain amount of one upmanship at most clubs (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Aug 11, 16:48:54
        
        Well, Sweeper is me nodding back to those days. No-one else has proposed it... (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:50:57
- I really hope that this is wrong other wise it really is all going to go wrong for Gunn (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Aug 11, 16:27:19
  - Pre-season they've played both ways (NCFC) - Basil Wrathbone, Aug 11, 16:33:05
    - Having not seen the games...I'm not sure I am right but wasn't only wigan that was 3-5-2? (n/m) (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Aug 11, 16:36:24
      - no. that was 4-5-1 or 4-3-3 (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Aug 11, 16:39:49
    - Interesting. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:33:38
  - all you're doing is asking Semi to do what he does now, but with a spare centre back... (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:29:15
    - So he will be neither forward or defending all night which will mean Doc will play RB (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Aug 11, 16:33:51
      - A free role for Wes is not a 4-5-1. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:36:07
        
        Don't Think We have the Complimentary Players (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Aug 11, 16:40:31
        
        I dont think he deserves a free role, Had about 3 good games last year (NCFC) - DiscoDaleGordon, Aug 11, 16:44:52
        
        Appears We are Making the same mistake we did with Huckerby. (NCFC) - SeattleSounders, Aug 11, 16:48:45
        
        yup I appear to have lost a player there somewhere but he is hiding in midfield somewhere (NCFC) - Maillot Jaune, Aug 11, 16:40:07
- So the only one of the back 5 from Saturday dropped is Drury? (NCFC) - APB, Aug 11, 16:22:43
  - Lappin is a better wingback. Drury has been out of competitive action for aaages. (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:24:05
- Wingbacks? OoooOOOOooooh. (NCFC) - Arizona Bay, Aug 11, 16:22:33
  - Yep but it is the only safe way I can think to get the best of Hoolahan. (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:23:27
- Oh f**k not Nelson again? (n/m) (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Aug 11, 16:22:28
- 5-3-2? (NCFC) - Garry Brooke, Aug 11, 16:16:13
  - Looks like they've been listening to me!!! (n/m) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:19:29
  - can't work it out at all (NCFC) - samcd84, Aug 11, 16:18:41
    - Nah its a proper 3-4-1-2 with wingback a sweeper and hooly in the hole (IF TRUE) (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:22:21
      - Nelson sweeper?..shit the roof. more likely the Danish lad I reckon. (n/m) (NCFC) - BINMEN8R, Aug 11, 16:26:04
      - Sweeper? (NCFC) - BerlinCanary, Aug 11, 16:24:41
        
        I see Spillane in the Culverhouse role. Basically right-sided centre back... (NCFC) - sheffieldcanary, Aug 11, 16:28:21
