    Just reading some stats this day 1974 we beat Millwall 4-1 away
    Scorers - Hughes Halom Kerr Towers (canny line up)

    Its fate
    Going for 4-1 win to the lads.

    Can't quite get over this strange feeling of excitement building in me on match days, it's replaced the anxiety and tension felt on match days over the past few years. Long may it continue!

    I think AOB could start tonight.
    We’re a work in progress and LJ has to look after everyone, bed in the new boys and rest anyone with an issue.
    We’re going to be a well oiled machine, chewing up and spitting out whoever we’re playing. But that might take a few games.
    Tonight, a win would be a huge statement. :emoticon-0169-dance

    I'd imagine in the next 2 hours we get the tweet telling us what squad number Alves and Broadhead are wearing. If we do they're likely in the squad tonight. Would be shocked if Alves wasn't.

    I reckon Alves is 5 and Broadhead 9

    Or Broadhead may get number 7 meaning we are still looking for another forward. Wishful thinking on my part

    Or they both choose obscure higher squad numbers as a preference and we're non the wiser....

    don't want to sound like i have 'big club syndrome' but there some really nice little grounds around the league, nice, compact and keep the fans right on top of the action...some of the big stadiums you really feel as if you are not part of the crowd/game (our own premier concourse or the mags away fans section for example)

    yeh I've never been to Burton but it looks a cracking little stadium. A lot of the modern "small" stadiums are really nice. Would love to go to the Brentford one for example.

    yup, wallace and grommit usually cover the seasons games, only difference is when we 'clash' with the mags then we get moved...and i can never remember where to retune.

    Cheers lads, with me being away from the area the last number of years I couldn't listen to it through online and wasn't to sure about fm now that I'm back in the area. Can't watch as I'm busy so just have to listen

    I just expect us to get better and better as the season goes on. Tough game tonight but still expect a win. LND to score again as well as Gucchi n Doyle.
