I don't quite understand your logic there.

As you say, Benyon is probably our best chance of scoring tonight...but to keep the moral of the team up, he should be on the bench! :-/

What about the moral of the team when we lose again?[/quote]

Throwing a loanee in straight away would say to Jarvo and Yeoman "Thank God we finally have a capable striker here. One of you makeweights can get back on the bench where you belong."

As it happens, that is what a fair few of us think, but it demonstrates more diplomatic squad management to give those lads one last chance to impress, by introducing EB after 60 mins.

That is clearly the view that Lingy has taken anyway, so if I'm nuts then so is he! :na:

This is not a loanee...this is Elliot Benyon!

If he comes on about the hour mark, I suppose I can live with that. :~D

Am assuming that it wasn't the most riveting first half...call me a sentimental, young fool but wouldn't it be great if Benners came on and got the winner? 89th minute would do me fine.

not a vintage half but we've def had more of the play today so far, they sound very beatable, and if we dont win it'll def be points dropped tonight IMHO

when will EB come on then, gotta be a straight swap for yeoman or jarvis, or will we be evn more adventurous and have 3 of them on at the same time?? cant see bodin making way tho as he sounds like hes been very good again

1778 there
