    I love games like this today. As much as we SHOULD win, with all our injury problems and the fact we’ve won the last 2, it feels like more of a free hit than normal.

    Nice to be in a season where winning isn’t life or death. Takes the pressure of watching.

    I’ll be ****ing livid if we lose mind :D

    Take a point personally. Been some grind on the road for the lads with injuries gallore. Still about 3 points from 5th to 15th so keeping the tally ticking over will do nicely for me today.

    I'm expecting to see a starting eleven based around Evans and a less frantic performance than at Wigan ...

    ... Blackpool aren't a bad side but just the kind of L1 style outfit that struggles against our pace and skill.

    Arriving there in fourth place should give us the confidence to go for the win.

    2-0 with a corner and a 30 yarder from Evans.

    Ha’way the Lads!!!

    I said that I would be happy with 4 points from the 2 away games and we've already got 3 of those but confidence should be up after Wigan and the way we played in the second half. Hopefully any injuries we have aren't too serious and put out the same squad as last time with maybe Evans coming in to the team for Dan Neil to give him a bit of a break but with Stewart starting and leading from the front I don't think we'll drop points. I'll go for 2-1.

    I think Evans will return but alongside Neil. Neil has been outstanding recently, and been particularly good the last 2. His form is too good to rest and after today he can get a break. I would quite like Michut to keep his place. Roberts needs to start as well.

    HA'WAY THE LADS MACKEMS ATTACKEM

    Well happy new year all.
    2022 seems to have been and gone in a flash.
    But a good year as far as we were concerned.
    Promotion back to the championship and now more than holding our own with the youngest team around.

    I'll still be happy with a mid table finish but it's great to see signs that we could achieve more.

    A win to start the new year would be great today and I'll take a slim 1-2 win for the lads..
    Great job with the match threads @RTB and look forward to this years :emoticon-0148-yes:



    Coooooomon.

    Hopefully the latter and part of the KLD/Speakman grand plan. If they’re good enough they’re old enough.

    My guess is that Evans,Stewart and Roberts will come into the line up and he won't risk Batth, Cirkin or Gooch
