Do the rules state you have to still pick a certain amount of players who have played in a number of a teams previous games.

Or can you simply play a complete different starting 11.

did'nt we get performance of the round a couple of seasons back and then got fined for not fielding enough first team regulars

Certainly did, clowns.

do the wilson trick from a few years ago, start boyd n brown then take them off after a minute

job done.

That's absolutely right. I still remember that. I was not very happy at the time.

I would pick

..................Rafferty...............

Haslam.......Liddle........Hartley........Horwood

Larkin........Gamble........Murray..........Monkhouse

................................Yantano............................

................................Bjornsson..........................

I should have checked the official site before I asked.

The rule has changed , clubs can pick form one or two

2nd one must be difficult to implement, you could pick it and then have injuries which mean you cant.

Murray has to be dropped. If he plays tomorrow and Saturday then that'll be 4 games in the space of 12 days and although he hasn't finished the last two games it's still a lot of football. He's going to be a key player this year and if we overuse then he'll end up getting crocked so he should be rested when it's not imperative he plays. He's 34 and averaged just over 20 games a season throughout his career, he's not suddenly going to find the ability to play 90 minutes several times every week.

I would have thought Humps was a certainty for a starting place to get him nearer to the record appearence figure.
