While that is true, I still think we need a strong, experienced core of players. We can't put put out a team of kids every week and hope to get promoted. But with the extra game, squad rotation is key so they may get their chance when we're playing our 4th game in 13 days

Maybe Brunt could help him

I meant coaching experience, Brunt has none plus along with the rest of the playing staff is one part of the reason we are in this mess

As much as I've defended Nick Hammond, I'd be really disappointed if he didn't help Darren Moore during this period between now & end of season. Especially if, as others have said, a DoF is a wannabe Head Coach.

To be honest it is about salvaging a little bit of dignity and that might just be avoiding 6 straight defeats. I would not have blamed Darren in the slightest if he politely declined to pick this up but that is not how the guy rolls so I hope it doesn't go too badly for him.

Darren Moore goes into this as legend and he will come out of it still a legend. Those players who feel like disrespecting him better get ready from serious grief because the fans will not direct any anger or frustration at Darren so that just leaves the collection of overpaid has beens and never wozzers in the firing line.

I think his team selection will reflect whoever has applied the most this past week. Don't think he'll pull any punches or try and be a tactical genius.

We could lose every game between now and the end of the season and I would still love this bloke. Wishing him nothing but the very best of luck. Who knows he may throw his hat into the ring to become our new head coach on a full time basis.

But this once again shows why sentiment is an issue, what if he plays 442 against a 5 man midfield (like Pardew) what if he picks the same starting 11 that Pardew was picking...
Surely he needs to do/try different so he keeps his status ?

I was thinking about this yesterday. I wouldn't be surprised if he went with a 3 at the back formation, he played in one under Megson.

I also think, while it's mathematically possible to stay up, he will go for experience. I'm not expecting to see too many personnel changes today.

On the other hand, I do expect to see a more positive attitude from the players.

Big Dave is blameless in all of this and I will be cheering him on this afternoon.  Expectations though are still for me very low.  Anything above six straight defeats between now and the season end would be a plus.

He I said not
He has picked Livermore and brunt in central midfield, we know this doesn't work
He has picked a midfield 4 against a 5 , Pardew got slated for same
He has not changed the team to inject impetus

There really was only one man to come in for the last 6, SGM

Firstly, loved DM as a player and 2001/02 was my favourite WBA team of all time, simply for what was achieved.  Seems to be a really good guy in general too.

However, today to pick Brunt central / Mclean wide in a 4-4-2.  Seriously come on, 5 days on the training ground and that's the best he could do?

He's been there all season and every time Barry or Brunt are picked in that system we struggle.  And I still say Barry/Brunt can be effective in a 5, so not picking on them personally.  Burke has showed some promise recently and he's left out in favour of McLean? 

I guess Chadli/Belgium manager will dictate to WBA if/when he's selected not the other way around.

I don't see us winning any of the last 5 as that was by far the easiest fixture on paper.

Big Dave should have made more changes in starting line-up and  team needed freshing up second half. Whole sale changes needed in summer.

100% Sure you will get your wish has i'd say up to 8 players will jump ship & their agents are more than likely looking for new births for them has i type.

I genuinely believe he picked the XI who would have applied themselves best in training this week. That was my hope pre-game and I think that's what it was post-XI. You want to start, you have to earn it.
