He should hounded by his own conscience and the part of the brain that dictates logic.

Mick does seem to allude to Aaron starting

any chance he starts instead of Robinson?

Can't see it. Same team as Saturday only with Stevens back in at left back. I am hoping Mick pulls a surprise but at this stage and from his comments about Saturday I would be really amazed if there was more than 2 changes(the only other possible change could be Browne for Robinson but even at that I am skeptical)

Walters coming back from an offside position but Shane Long was definitely onside- Shane Lonnggggggg.... has done it!!!!

Hoolahoops are only for snacking. For main course you always go with Sammon.

Soon all the cells will be immortal. Except for wars and accidents.

If Connolly had started we'd have easily won 3-0.

Would he have been our youngest ever debut hat trick scorer?

Romario 2016: And the ticket mafia gets caught! Well, four years ago I had already told the government.

Great to hear. Someone who won't settle for the "muddle through" attitude that has become pervasive in the rest of the team.

We're decent enough..

His name is Aaron Connolly, and he didn't come here to die.

He fights for the rights of the working man! And protects the Proletariat!

Unless somebody makes a standout club appearance and forces his hand, which Connolly clearly has done, it's a complete and utter no brainer (given McCarthy's ridiculous short brief) that the manager usually opts for experience every time in selecting his teams. However, given our paucity of striking options, I will be surprised if Connolly doesn't at least make a sub appearance over the next two games.

Like most here I've seen very little of this lad, but I'm very impressed from the little amount I have seen. His clever movement and pace around the box remind me of Robbie. If he can keep progressing, these kind of gambles bring goals.

Its hardly much of gamble really.

He's been on the radar for over 3 years at this stage with various super performances for our underage teams. He has taken like a duck to water at adult level for brighton even before his two goals at the weekend.

Add to that, that we have really poor options in that area of the field and tbh its a no brainer picking him for the senior squad now. Tbh there is a serious arguement to be had whether you start him or not now.

Which super performances?

I'd bet my left nut you'd never heard of this guy a year ago.

I tend to do my betting with more reputable establishments to be honest as opposed to a random anonymous forum.

Anyone with half a clue about our underage set up would of known he was coming through.

Now take your left nut and nonsense comments and jog on M8.

"jog on M8" - what are you, a tan?

What are you, a racist?

Apologies, it was in reference to people like Danny Dyer who like to use that term, if it was perceived as racist I apologise. Definitely not what was intended
