Almost zero chance with the same old faces, why not try something different.

I assume JJ isn't fit enough to start. It isn't that surprising given the length of his inury, think some of the reactions to that are a bit OTT.

 

Not sure what Mukasa has done to deserve getting dropped for Reid mind.

 

We need Reids physicality today

Or if it's not fixable don't try to fix it 

If it is broke don't fix it.

That's fair. I guess there's an assumption that JJ would be ready again, but perhaps that's premature, especially given we'll need him for the other games this week. We don't even know how he'll be asked to play in a Rowett team either, to be fair.

 

Mukasa is the baffling one to me. Although nobody was good last week, Mukasa has been a key source of creativity since he joined us.

Sticking with all the players that got us into this position is quite impressive.

Come on guys it’s clear James must not be 100% fit it’s not rocket science why he is on the bench!!

It’s pretty obvious that James and Lascelles can’t start 2 games in a few days and Rowett has clearly decided Bristol is a better chance for a decent result.Frustrating but understandable.

Not sure about the Bobby Reid selection though.

And dropping those who offer us something. 

 

 

[squidsworth]

Not even Mukasa surely he is upto playing 3 in a week? Our main goal threat on the bench. DOH! 

[em9999]

Mukasa dropped for being half decent and in form 

 

Genius thus new manager , nice to see James on bench too

The only thing I’m grasping onto is the fact we might end the game strong. But I feel I’m grasping at straws.

 

Best two players on the bench and none of the newbies starting isn’t exactly inspiring. Luke Thomas and f**king Okoli 🤢

[winteriscoming]

How the fvck does Thomas start every game? 
Easily the worst full back in the division. 
Give Aluko a go at left back. 

[when_you're_smiling]

If James isn’t match fit then absolutely he shouldn’t be starting. Want him for as many games as possible in the run in rather than taking a risk. 

[ozvaldo]

Rowett’s lost the plot.

Well if it's good enough for our beloved owner....

Aluko is so blatantly not ready. As shit as Thomas is Aluko hasn’t exactly said the world alight.

Finishing the game strong will be fantastic when we are 4_0 down .. can't wait 

[RumbleFox]

Yay.

Just a 3-1 defeat is probably a decent result for us here 😭

Who the hell is getting the 1 😂

Has he even been given a chance to? 

[em9999]

The only place luke Thomas should be left back is in the changing room 

[AS78UK]

Mukasa on the bench with his current form is unforgivable.  

 

Add to that James and Lascelles not starting and Page out the squad makes me even more concerned  

[Ted Maul]

Easing James and Lascelles back in before the run of 'winnable' games? 

 

Makes a bit of sense. No point watching today though.

Crazy not to start James at this stage of the season, regardless of him obviously not being 100%.

One of the problems with relying on loan players in a relegation dogfight, that decision might be out our hands.

Came on and was probably one of the best players against Charlton
