    Tommy Watson on the bench! Great to see. Has had a long back injury so not featured much at all. I presume he’s still just working his way back but Mogga has included him in the group for experience

    I would say that the bench is slightly weaker than QPR but I reckon we should have enough to beat these

    Loving the bench. Academy kids galore. What a time to be following the lads. There must be 14 and 15 year olds in our academy thinking me next and busting an absolute gut. Love it.

    Of all our players I have to say the one I have a soft spot for is Pritchard ...

    absolutely loves playing, does things no-one else does and has a bit of the devil in him.

    Way better than Bannon and a shame he doesn't always get a start.

    He is real quality. He knows his job so well, and he does it with a professionalism, and a slice of venom. Pleased he is still here as he is a bit different to everyone else, and has that streetwise know how.

    It wasn't long ago uncle Tone came out with that strange quote about not being able to start Pritchard, and saying it was complicated.
    I thought at the time it seemed one of those where he was close to triggering a contract clause once he reached xyz games. Maybe I'm wrong.

    Going for a draw and blaming the green strip:angel:.
    Hopefully wrong and our confidence and class football brings the 3 points home.
