    If we're playing two tall CF's you need to get crosses in, simple as that.

    There's no point in having Wyke and Stewart then playing triangles around the box.

    Jordan Jones will be the difference today.

    You may well be right, he can produce something from nowhere, but I'd like to see him replaced as soon as he's slowing down.

    He totally faded, out of the Peterborough game and they got on top of us.

    if he's blowing I'd bring Gooch or Maguire on asap.

    Thanks, you too.
    I don't disrupt it during the match.
    I won't like yours if you don't like mine ;)
    I'll shut up now.
    Apart from concentrating on the match.
    Which out of superstitious nonsense and nerves I don't think I'll be watching.

    Might be getting boring now but it is purely the strength of the bench that will see us through. Gucchi, AOB, Maguire, Hume etc on the bench. All game changers.

    You're right. On Monday we played too many balls in from deep and their center half's lapped it up
    Think that was a lot to do with the pitch. hopefully McGeady and Jones can down the flanks get behind them and get some proper crosses in.

    Having Jones and McGeady gives the opposition a real problem. They can't double up on both of them.

    Don’t think I’ve guessed one team sheet right while LJ has been in charge I trust him.

    Same here. Starting to come to terms with how he works. Its an game plan about the 18 man squad and the full 90 mins.
    Not just the starting line up.

    Definitely. His record since coming here has more than earned our trust

    I would expect Hume to start on Tuesday
