Shall we say, by the time Cureton returns, Cheltenham are doing well in the league and Gornell and Harrison have about 5 goals each, do we bring Cureton back in? He's no doubt a cracking striker, but do you take 2 in form strikers out? Completely hypothetical of course. Just want opinions.

If both are scoring and Cheltenham are winning games, Cureton is sub.

People said last year he did not know his best team and sometimes injuries force you in to changes. If (and that is a big if) we go on a winning streak you cant drop the strikers.

Agree with Choirboy.

If both are playing well and scoring goals then don't change it. Cureton will still be there if they stop playing well.

Yates already said if that was the case Cureton wont get in the team. Harisson's got three already hope he's got more than two more in the next five weeks.

Cureton should be fit in 21 days..far too cautious at times in the physio room.

If goals are going in an points are accumulating then don't change - though I'm always a fan of substitutions and would never end a game with the same two strikers with which I started (unless going to a 3 or 4 man front line when losing), so there is plenty of scope to manage the three of them to ensure sharpness and confidence and what is best for specific games.

Be lovely to see 40 goals plus between the three of them.
