Ah so on Saturday we face the team that features in the greatest milk advert of all time.

Can't wait for the inevitable 2-0 defeat..

I'm genuinely not sure what team to play, but I'll give it a go..

---------------McCormick---------------
--------Nelson-McHugh-Hartley--------
Mellor-----------------------------Talbot
---------------Cox---AOC---------------
-----------------Bobby------------------
---------------Reid--Brunt--------------

Your thoughts?

Your selection looks pretty good to me.

Stanley have lost their last 4 league matches with an aggregate score of 11 v 2.... so there's a good chance they'll beat us!

Weak on the left hand side.

I agree absolutely, but there's not really a lot we can do there..

Perhaps the time has come for Banton to step up and show what he can do in his preferred position of Left wing and try and earn a new contract here or catch someone elses interest if anything. Doubt he will do it though but nowt else to lose.

Think he's still injured for a couple weeks, you are right though. He wont be offered a new deal anyway I don't think.

The annoying thing about this Kellett deal is that we were left with no time to get anyone else in. I'm actually quite pissed off now that an Under 21 side have signed him and we've missed out.

All part of the joke that's English football I guess.

That's Sheridan's fault for not looking for other options as the Kellet deal was forever delayed and man utd nicked him. At least then he could have had a chance to bring in another... good job the window for emergency loans is opened to rectify it albeit yet again on a temp basis.

Not sure, seeing as Kellett was literally on his way down to sign terms I don't think we could have expected such a move, not really anyone to blame here.. Maybe Man United, weirdly.

More annoyed that we did not go for Lavery

its never a done deal till the paperwork signed so Sheridan should have had backups to look at or try and bring in in lieu incase anything happend like it did here even if he was 99% certain and man utd swoop in to nick him oddly.

I think we will sneak a narrow win 1-0 or 2-1 which in retrospect is the last thing I want as it will take the heat of an inept owner.

And if we do win we the Avivas will go into meltdown about how the promotion push is back on bla bla bla.

It's all bollocks because you just know it will be back to normal service after 1 or 2 decent results...tis the Argyle way.

Without kellet IMO it will be 4-4-2 with (gulp) McHugh at LB.

Was it the Accrington game last season when our only shot on target was a goal kick from Luke?

Given the way he has played recently i'd have dropped him too.

Still one of our better players and he does have the odd goal in him.

I agree he's good but he's the sort who'll react well to being dropped. Last season he was dropped for Pompey, came on at half time, had a great cameo and for months was like a changed player. Would work I think.

He is a very frustrating player, He can open up a defence he can get into positions to score however he will either take one touch too many and messes it up or he wont pass to someone in a better position than he is and he will lose the ball instead. Also i notice he wont help Reuben out when he is breaking free from defenders in the box by getting in a position to help out and keep the attack going.

He is a good player but if he is playing up front which he can be good at he has got to work on his timing and teamwork better as at the moment he is shocking. May aswell give this James Blunt fella or Brunt a chance

Ah, that long established trait Argyle definitely have.

Agree with Josh's team, except I'd swap Mellor and Talbot around.

1-1.

I agree. His inability to shoot properly is agonising but there's a very talented player in there I'm sure. His conposure is just atrocious though. A 433 with no wingers perhaps? Brunt up top with Reubs and Lewi on either side, with Norburn in the middle of the midfield trio with Cox and O'Connor either side, who's capable of covering for the full backs? Maybe. Not sure.

I have gone with a 1-0 win for Argyle, the bad spell has got to end sometime and why not at home to Accrington who are they Stanley.
