****. I suspect this game will not go well.

[Sir David Gray]

I don't think it will really matter what team is selected to be honest but I'd go with;

Marshall

Cabraja
Bushiri
Porteous
Miller

Kenneh
Cadden
Doyle Hayes
Newell

Boyle
Youan

I fear that next week could be quite ugly.

Struggling with that one. Think a couple don’t deserve to start such as Henderson, Doidge and Tavares but without them there’s a lack of attacking options.

JDH was really good pre season for me and was unfortunate getting injured when he did and has done well when he’s came off the bench.

Boyle, Youan and Cadden will give loads of pace and energy going forward whilst being solid enough to compete. Think our best chance of beating them is getting in behind them hence why no Doidge.

If Melkerson is fit I would have him instead of Bojang. I'm presuming Hanlon will be injured again as he wasn't ready yesterday and looked like he pulled up. Henderson is too much of a luxury against a team who will have most of the ball. With likely availability of players it could be a long afternoon

[Saint Hibee]

I’m not sure what’s happened to Melkerson injury wise, but I’d like to see him playing as a centre forward rather than played out of position on the wing.

Think that team and set up for this game is a great shout. Hope LJ doesn't follow the trend of the same players playing regardless of performance. We have a big squad and need to use it. Bring Miller in and push Cadden on. Both Tavares and Bojang will need to start earning their time through meaningful impact off the bench. Hopefully Melkerson not out long term and hopefully Rocky is back, missed his presence in the Livi game

Yeah, need a striker playing central and Doidge isn't doing it. Melkerson should be moved inside and handed the number 9 spot. Unfortunately might have to wait, x-ray pending on ankle so could potentially be missing a while

id go 3-5-2/5-3-2, keep it tight at the back and hopefully have hendo thread some balls to the pace up front..

But reckon we’ll go 4-1-4-1 and give them all sorts of space out wide while chasing shadows in middle of the park…🙄 should actually look to play how livi played against us yesterday..

Would like to Melkersen central with Boyle and Youan beside him and seeing how that goes.

No doubt this will be a tough game and we will need every player to be at there best for 90 minutes off the ball and take our chances.

Johnson did say he would be going for the win in these games so I can't see us sitting back especially at home.

Our midfield will get battered again and Newell will be the one who goes into hiding the most.

If he 'plays', I hope I'm wrong.

[B.H.F.C]

Marshall in goals and Boyle on the right wing.

Beyond that Cadden and Cabraja pick themselves. But every other position is up for grabs for me.

I think we may see something like this though.

If Campbell is fit I’d be shocked if he doesn’t play. Would probably have him in for Henderson purely for his work rate and energy.

That aside the rest of the team is what I’d go for.

Difficult enough keeping 11 on the park against The Rangers. I’m no sure they’ll let us start with 12.

Newell doesn't hide. Dunno where the crap comes from. He is flawed absolutely, but he shows for the ball more than anyone else.

You surely can’t want JDH, Newell and Campbell in the same team?

I know it worked in the semi last year but I’m not sure any of the 3 are good enough, never mind all 3 together

Add in Kenneh and it’s a pretty negative looking midfield

[Jones28]

I’d go 5-3-2, like the Stubbs days. Genuinely felt like it was a formation that suited the players and I feel it’s the way to get the best out of the current bunch.

Quite a few have Newell out the team for this weekend, no chance. If he’s fit, then he 100% starts.

Very close to my team.

I'd have Newell in with Kenneh, with JDH pushed up as the advanced midfielder supporting the front 2.

We don't have the players to play 451/ 433 imo and will drop a lot of points between now and us realising.

I could see us taking an absolute doing this weekend regardless of who we play tbh.

JDH as attacking midfield? I think that would be mental. If any of those 3 have attacking qualities it's Newell

Can’t be any worse than Henderson. Guy that runs the Pie and Bovril forum said that was his strongest position at St Mirren too I’m sure.

Yeah, that's partly what I'm basing this on, I've heard it from a few St Mirren fans.

I can't really see Henderson imposing himself on this one, Kenneh's probably the first pick for the midfield, contrary to common opinion I actually think Newell's been decent lately and this is the type of game he'll fancy. JDH I like, and I reckon he could be very useful with the right players around him.

Still not convinced you can make a great combination out of our midfielders and certainly not for one where we might be on the back foot a bit, as you'd expect us to be against Rangers.

:agree: Newell is frustrating no doubt, but he is our best central midfielder right now and will 100% be in the team.

I think JDH more than deserves a start. Then it's a toss up between Kenneh, Henderson and Campbell which is a pretty hard choice as none of them have been inspiring.

[Cod Boy]

Got to hope Marshall saves rangers penalty

[Keith_M]

Whatever the team is, I just hope they can keep the score down to a respectable level.

Going by how we've performed in the first few games this season, I can see us losing by three or four.

He's had several great games against rangers in his time here.

He suits playing them way more than your Livingston's and st Johnstone's imo.

Is Campbell likely to be fit?

Also - not suggesting for a second we should try it - those 3 had their finest hour and a half together against Rangers.

The update from Hibs today said he's 'in contention'.

I believe he will be fit for Saturday.

Good point regarding the semi final win.

Not saw Boyle in any of the media content this week?

Is he fit?
