Ling confirmed Bodin and Stevens would have started and he sees Morris as a central midfielder. So basically after all the 'hoo har' on the other thread he was going to pick the side i suggested. #lifestylechoices
Macklin, Craig etc will all be on the bench to begin with.
Before the moaners start.....
Because what other choice does Lloyd have? He was on the transfer list for 3 months and we didn't get a jot of interest for him. Went to Salisbury last season and struggled to get a start, went to Hereford on trial, even scored, they still didn't want him. Fail to apply himself this season and Lingy will just release him with the very real possibility that Lloyd won't get another professional contract again. It is his last chance saloon in many ways and he has to produce for his own future.
It's a bit like Carayol, produce sweet FA for a long time, take the money and live it up as a footballer, play your balls off to earn a new contract and put yourself in the shop window when it matters. Just hope we don't lose him for a free like we did with Muzzy.
Lloyd looks like a different player this pre-season, faster stronger, fitter than last season, he is talking a good game on twitter too. With players like Thompson, Bodin, Leadbitter all being in the match day environment this season (7subs) there are more players (or mates) to make him feel like part of the team, and he's revelling in it.
He has been scintillating this pre-season and I know there is a question mark as to whether he can reproduce it when it matters, I really hope he can. We really missed his pace last night, if Thompson was given 25 minutes it's not unreasonable to suggest that Macklin would not have featured in some part. To my mind he is a better option than playing a striker out there as a makeshift winger.

I think the tribunal decided that we should get 35/40k for Muzzy. Seemed reasonable at the time.

I agree with what Ling said on the OS. No idea why people are worried about last night. We were without key players and hopefully the mistakes made can be rectified in time for Saturday.
