Steve - I was impressed by Horton and actually would start him on Saturday, with James in midfield if he's going to be fit and Bostock still out.Vicar - I do agree that Bostock is a big miss at the moment, we have to try and work around not having that playmaker and if that means changing the shape or formation I'd be all for it, but I'm not sure Buts has had enough time to feel confident in a different shape with the squad so used to 4-2-3-1.

We only got 2 strikers and one of them only just come back from injury. And if he tried a new formation and we lost that would be the first thing fans would moan about (why we not play 4231 when we’ve played it all season).

I wasn't necessarily thinking two strikers anyway, as I fancy Okenabirhie to do well off the left flank when Bogle is fit, but if we are shorn of a proper playmaker I think a flatter 4-3-3 or even a 4-4-1-1 might suit better, with Copps as the "1" behind the striker. Of only it were as easy as me saying that mind!
