    Sounds like a plan: good job I've been prevaricating on which of the two long-time strikers (now both 4*) to release - they made a great team way-back-when, it'll be good to give them a last hurrah before they both become TM fodder next season.

    The unfortunate DC to be benched will be team captain Arma - anyone can take FKs but the Aerial Defender and Defensive Wall SAs of the other defenders will be needed. He's not got an FK SA but I need to give one of the midfielders an extra job to do, so MC Kamal will be designated FK taker for the day. 1st choice 'keeper Bieder has been rested for the past 4 days, the recent purchase replacement has been good, but I shall need his experience (and extra *) for this game - for good measure he is next in seniority for captain so he'll be Captain of the Day.

    12:47 BST is kick-off time, I know I'll be out and about so it'll be login on the mobile and register I'm there (sometimes the extra 8% matters), and we'll see what happens...
    Any formation or tactics advice given is based purely on experience with my teams...

    Prevaricating, haven't seen that word used in a long time
    Sounds exciting! All the best! Hopefully I haven't screwed this up for you!

    I'll not hold it against you, it was a few lines down on my list of things that I could possibly do, anyway. It is nice to know someone else thinks it's a possible tactic to use.
