Nope :emoticon-0107-sweat The lad who was meant to be driving dropped out a couple of days ago, meaning I’d be behind the wheel. Struggling to lift my head off the pillow without being in pain so driving there and back was automatically a no go. Trying to get in the docs tomorrow. Just hope we get all 3 today, if we’re serious about going up we need to win these games.

Understand it’s decent news on Chris Rigg. Some bad ankle swelling but scans haven’t revealed any lasting damage.
17-year-old will miss today’s game against Stoke City and probably Sheffield United on NYD alongside the FA Cup game.

I'm pretty expectant of a win today and that makes me nervous. These are the games that teams that get promoted win.

Wouldn't be surprised to see RLB change things up slightly today, think we'll go with something like;

Patterson
Hume Mepham O'Nien Cirkin
Connolly Neil Jobe
Roberts Isidor Aouchiche

We should be dominating the ball today against a side that will sit in so I'd rather Aouchiche and Connolly who are comfortable operating in pockets of space in front of the defence rather than Mayenda who wants to find space in behind as I doubt there will be much of that.

Should be plenty of creativity in that side to provide Isidor with 3/4 quality chances. Should be less involved in build up play if we are dominating the ball which is a good thing. Get him in the box and get the ball into him.

0-2. Isidor and Jobe.

Connolly as a right CM? Has he ever played there before ? Massive risk that.

Smashing job RTB. Thankyou.
Funnily enough , I fear our problem may be possible complacency today . But I’ll trust RLB to waken them up and take it 2-0
