I think Lee Martin will come in for Holmes and, if fit, Forth for Abrahams. Don't think the defence will be altered.
I would stick with Holmes. I didn't think he was anywhere near as bad as people thought, plus he had two on him every time he got the ball.. As I saw it the problem was at the back. The first two goal were collective mistakes by the defence, not individual errors. Sweeney should have got the ball away for the first one, but with goalie and two defenders in the six yard box, one of them should have stopped the cross getting to the striker. The second, again we should have at least got in a tackle before the striker got into the box.

Out from last week would be Sweeney, Moxey, Boeteng and Humphries. In would come Oates ,Woodman, Collins and Forte if fit,if not, Jay. Matt said after the Yeovil game that some of the lads that did well will start on Saturday. It will be interesting to see if he means it.
Mr Humphries? Abrahams? Miss Brahms? It's like an episode of Are You Being Served round here. I will go Forth and multiply.

Don't think he'll make too many changes. Think he'll put it down as a 'bad day at the office' against Lincoln. Now prove that's all it was.

I'd make a few changes. Collins, Tilson, Forte, Woodman in. Taylor, Holmes, Abrahams, Moxey benched.

Won't happen as he won't drop our captain. Dont get me wring I thought Taylor was our player of the season last year and rate him highly, but I prefer Tilson in the deep role Taylor has been playing this season.

Taylor is not a creative midfielder. I prefer him up top just behind the strikers. I think Tilson and Law would work well together. So I would go
Pym
Sweeney Brown A. Martin Woodman
Tilson Law
Taylor L.Martin
Forte(Jay) Stockley

I still reckon Ogbene is in with a shout after his cameo last weekend. Whoever does come in, I think Lee Holmes should definitely be looking over his shoulder after the Lincoln game.

No natural width in your team. Law is wasted as a defensive midfielder imo.

So , it seems the general consensus with those privileged to be able to get to games that we are missing something without Forte being available. Is this because he works well with Jayden? Have we no like for like substitute or will our play continue to suffer when he's out injured?
