The scheduling gods could have been kinder than having us face Leeds away first game after Wembley but we haven't got the SL points in the bag to do anything else but go after this.


Dufty obviously out for a fair while and a real shame CTW is also probably out for much of the rest of the year, would have been great to see him get an extended run here.  I guess the options are either Ratchford or Thewlis at Full Back? Not sure Ratchford has the pace anymore, but does Thewlis have the passing game to link up out the back?


Haven't heard anything else injury wise in terms of Williams, King etc.  Hopefully the only change will be Dufty out...? 

No point moving Thewlis to Full Back imo. As you say, he doesn't have the passing game whereas Ratchford does. What do we keep him around for if not for times like this when we need cover. Keep it simple.
