Burton Albion Pre-Match Thread (Sat 22 Aug 15:00)

[Donwebbio]

Lets go for it. We need to develop an atmosphere of positivity to be attractive to new owners and to get us all pushing in the right direction again. Here is my team: 

 

Stol

JJ

Okoli

Souttar

MacFarlane

 

Page

Braybrooke

 

Alves

Chaplin

Burns 

 

Bristic

 

Let's get after them and show a good arrogance by showing everyone that we are too big for this league. If we go a goal up lets push for a second and a third. Let's show the world we have hit rock bottom but we are on the way back. COYB.

Can we at least try to be positive please,  it's depressing reading the negative views. I have to believe or else what's the point? 

[GrobyLCFC31]

Has to start big Admir! 
No excuses, full week of training and must be full of confidence - the complete opposite to BDR

‘Intensity Important’ - Martin On Brewers Test

 

If he starts Reid and Cullen together again he's lying through his teeth

[H.a.r.r.y]

you just know he's going to start Thomas

Id love a journalist to ask him why he thinks his system takes so long to work even when you have had months with work with a vastly superior set up to every single team in the league.

No idea if Macfarlane is any good but if he can’t force his way in over Luke Thomas over the next few games, then he isn’t an ‘elite’ footballer.

I’m really looking forward to this afternoon and having at least 3 young players in the team gives renewed hope.

Is Chaplin fit for this one?

That’s on the players to stop being negative. Nothing people are saying is a lie.

True, but if we could get off to a flying start at home without booing that would be great.

If he's not injured, he starts every league game, I'd imagine

What's the point of Mcpharne then ?

 

I don't think he has come here to sit on the bench

One of them will have too!

 

Not my opinion btw. I've seen nothing of McFarlane, so I have no thoughts on him. 
Just think RM rates Thomas

Just “footballer” would have sufficed.

Again it’s on the players and the manager. A manager doesn’t need 10 games to see if players like Thomas, Skipp and Reid.

 

The manager and owners hubris will create the tone of the atmosphere.  Anything else is gaslighting and lack of accountability. 

 

These players need some old school cyber bullying. 

[ronnup]

Thomas and Bobby both start 100%, you just know it

Then that’s enough to show that he will fail at another club. 
 

I’m hoping he has dropped Thomas and Skipp or drilled into them what he wants them to do. 

[Pita]

I can see another game where we struggle but 1-0 Leicester
