    Tougher game perhaps, big physical fellas!

    1-2 Town, continue best start.

    Looking at the last 4 games Burton have played, league and cup, 13 conceded and found the net 4 times (all in same game)
    4 nil win.

    They did score four times on Saturday, but as Redruth mentioned - they’ve conceded thirteen goals already this season.

    I’ll go for a 3-1 win, with Burton taking an early lead.

    Falmouth is a long way from Stafford!

    I didn't speak to him, I assume he is on holiday, no offence to Burton, but Falmouth is possibly slightly more appealing than Burton in August (even if we are playing there) <whistle>

    Interesting line up tonight....no burns in the squad, front two of Jacko and Freddie.
    Hope it doesn't bite is the gluteus maximus....
    I'll go for a crappy 1-1 draw, with OG on the score sheet

    Assuming Burns has a knock and they are playing to strong squad strengths, my hunch is some will be glad not starting but come on later. Harness to fill Burns shoes, and Leigh adds more of a physical presence.

    I will still go with 2-1 away win. Just hope the Lad scores tonight.

    Playing out from back again, risky at times!

    Harness to loose and gifts them several chances. Burton could be 2 up!

    Playing our game, more pressure. Get a goal and we could be off.

    We are playing half decent but Burton are doing a number on us.

    Defensively we look like we can withstand what they are throwing at us it's whether we make a mess of it ourselves by playing it about too much.

    Good to see the players trying to adapt and change tactic as the game unfolds.

    But I still think we need to get the ball up the pitch quicker. If you look most teams we play against the defensive line is generally in a good shape, the majority of the time that's because we allow them to be, too slow to get forwards and we only have 1 striker working on the defence so they're not being stretched or pulled out of position enough. It's certainly a hard job being the striker in our team
