Surprised this has not been mentioned, but when Olowu went off yesterday we had two centre backs on the bench, Williams and Blyth, but Wellens put Rowe at centre back and brought Horton on as left wing back. Now in my opinion Williams is shite, but what was the thinking behind putting Rowe there? Has Wellens finally seen what a lot of us have seen and lost patience with Williams? Was Williams carrying a knock, and if so why was he on the bench if there was no intention to play him? I thought Rowe did well at CB by the way
Rowe and Horton played well. Probably the only positives in the game.
Williams was injured apparently (yet still on the bench) - bizzare.

Not seen any of the game yesterday but I'm glad Horton played well. Hope he can take confidence in this. Be a few folk on here scranning humble pie if he does after they referred to him as being shite.
I’m sure that I saw something either on here or Twitter last night saying that RW was going to put Williams on and tried twice and he still wasn’t ready, so he put Blyth on instead and was very displeased with Williams. Can’t find the tweet or post now?

I would say that Jones, Horton, Hasani and Blythe would be first names on the teamsheet on Tuesday. You need to keep these lads sharp in case they are needed for League games.
In our situation it’s about Risk. Horton playing in league could deemed a Risk by Richie in different situation he might be given more time. He should get in on Tuesday we will have a depleted squad.

Not sure if Ravenhill can play in that game aswell?I would say Knoyle Anderson Rowe Smith Dodoo Hiwula and Vilca could and should play add to them Jones Blythe Horton Hasani or Ravenhill and and bench with Bottomley and 5 U18s
