I’d probably be brave and play a back 4 so that you’ve not got Bowery and Akins again at wing back offering nothing going forwards. We simply have to win on Saturday anyway don’t we.
Presuming Reed can’t start:
Pym
Hewitt Kilgour Perch Bowery
Wallace
Clarke Boateng
DKD
Akins Oates
If you can’t get at least 60 minutes out of Oates then I guess I’d start Gale instead.
I can understand to a degree if people think we should stick with a back 5 and have Akins and Bowery at wing backs again as this would make us a bit more solid. I just can’t see us creating any chances yet again if we set up like that. You shouldn’t be playing a wing back formation if your wing backs aren’t good.
Hopefully playing an extra midfielder would help us gain a bit more control in there, maybe string a few passes together too!

Harbottle out for Crawley. He's ok in himself. Should be ok for the Swindon game.
Hewitt uncomfortable with his broken nose, but should be ok to play against Crawley.
Reed training Wednesday but won't be available to start against Crawley.
McLaughlin not training this week, so won't be available against Crawley.
Callum Johnson, we're probably looking at the Swindon game, hopefully.
Maris hopefully training Wednesday, so a possibility he could be in the squad against Crawley.
Quinn back from suspension.

I found this a little strange, Maris is training on Wednesday and might be available whereas Reed who is training Wednesday (and was on the bench at the weekend) wont be?

This would be my team, Wallace may have his downsides but at least he doesn’t go missing for 90 mins like Boateng
