    I think Taylor might come in for Luongo & Clarke for Axel. Other than that, can’t see too many other changes.

    Anyone think we will get any points from Hull and Coventry, I think we will be lucky to get 1 point

    No, if they have to get points they will be after winning the game, so hopefully it will be a better for us.
    14 months ago we were drawing 0 0 at Bristol Rovers. That was the nadir for us.
    Look were we are now. Forget Saturday, they couldn't be arsed against Leicester last week ( cheating all their fans that went) but were up for it Saturday though.
    In McKenna we trust!

    That he was, in League One. Collected lots of crosses and I generally felt assured of him commanding his box. Vas has done well in the Championship so far with the ball at his feet but I'm far from convinced about his box presence and ability to catch instead of punch. I'm not a fan of punching, it becomes a 50/50 chance of you keeping possession. I'd like to see Walton given a go, I just don't think it will happen. It's just a little too late in the season to have him get up to match speed.

    I'd agree with you on this. I don't think Clarke when starting has been particularly good defensively or made many overlapping runs this season (that looks like an instruction) think he could do a job for us on the RW, he has that drive and engine that others don't. Definitely missed that drive and determination in forward positions on Sunday perhaps Sarmiento could bring a bit of that also.

    He was, but he’s been abysmal when he’s come in for the cup games. He’s rusty. We don’t have time to bed him back in.

    And what are you talking about fall guy? There is no fall guy. We’ve won all but two games over the last couple of months.

    Personally I like my keeper to command his box and take the pressure off the defence, something Hladky definitely doesn't do!!

    Two nailed on penalties ignored. Leeds and Leicester allowing the pressure to get to them. This is when a Wednesday night fixture instead of Tuesday feels like a good call

    Two easy clean sheets and 4 points from Leeds.

    Don’t think that will help us for the harder game on Saturday though.

    All about who holds their nerves now. I’d prefer Leeds and Ipswich (or Southampton) to go up. Annoys the hell out of me how Leicester have got away with breaking FFP rules.

    Despite one guy on here, your fans seem okay, if not a little superstitious. I smile at Redruth popping over with attempts to jinx us, sadly it seems to be working ;)
