Turner
St Ledger
Cort
Khumalo (Morgan if Khumalo isn't fit)
Jones
Parry
Ashbee
Coutts
Treacy
Hume
Ellington

I'd say that realistically Morgan will play whatever and Carter will start in place of Coutts but that is the team that I would play. Think Treacy is about our only consistent attacking quality. Only player that looked like creating yesterday.
 
Khumalo's not fit. If C. Brown can't play then it's likely to be something like....

Turner
Nicholson Morgan St Ledger Jones
Carter Ashbee Treacy
Johnson Hume Hayes

Though personally I'd go....

Turner
Jones Morgan Wright Hart
Nicholson Ashbee Carter Treacy
Hume Hayes

Due to Hart being left-footed (big game to come in yeah, and he's never going to get in the team this season, but that's my view). No Johnson because he's beyond a joke. Hayes in because C. Brown is apparently unavailable and Ellington lacks much quality at the minute. Nicholson back into midfield where he can actually play good football.
 
Did a circuit of Lea town this morning and observed the team training for 5 minutes. Probably be easier to say who wasn't there, Ledge, Cort, Treacy, Coutts, Parry, Kumalo, C.Brown, Linganzhi, think that's it.
 
SSL won't be ready, Cort is unlikely as well.

I don't think were going to have a choice but play Wright again...eek, Cardiff might finally get payback from 2 years ago.

I asked this yesterday. I was told there's a cut-off point in the season where players don't get banned for 5th, 10th, 15th yellow etc. We're past that cut-off point.
 
I'm no great fan of Wayne Brown but is he actually still at the club? If so, given our total lack of available defenders, we'd be better off playing him in central defence alongside Morgan. Billy Jones needs to he at right-back as there's no point weakening both our full back positions. Especially when Craig Bellamy will be attacking down the left!

Take your pick of unpalatable options for left-back, I'd just go with a youth team player who actually does play in that position.

Ellington to replace Chris Brown up top and ideally Paul Coutts to replace Darren Carter though Barry Nicholson or Darel Russell would be fine too. Virtually anyone would do instead of Johnson! But someone who is actually right-sided would be best. Paul Parry could be up for it against his former club and even Danny Mayor would be better than EJ.
