    This is a massive game. Following our costly slip at the weekend, where, irrespective of the performance of the referee, we should have won - failing to score in the first half is poor, and everyone I know who was at the game was hugely disappointed with the performance. Having seen the highlights, the two decisions look completely wrong (I can't understand how the ref can have given them) and I'm glad to see we're appealing the red card.

    However, I wouldn't be surprised to see it not be overturned. We will almost certainly see Morgan ahead of Gornell, and, if D. Mac's red isn't rescinded, I should think we'll see Richards in the middle with Jacobson back at LB. Grandison wasn't feeling well last week, so his inclusion isn't guaranteed.

    However, we need to win. Despite their reasonable home form, they are on a woeful run without a victory in 2012. COYB

    P.S: Mekki is a prick.

    Macclesfield:
    • Recent Form: DDLDLL
    • Top Scorers: Donelly (7); Tomlinson (6); Diagne (4)
    • Last Meeting: Shrewsbury 1-0 Macclesfield (Cansdell-Sheriff)
    • League Position: 23[SUP]rd[/SUP], 36 points from 40 games, GD -17
    • Home Record: W5 D10 L5 F22 A19


    Shrewsbury:
    • Recent Form: DWLWWD
    • Away Record: W7 D4 L9 F24 A24
    • League Position: 4[SUP]th[/SUP], 72 points from 39 games, GD 20


    Lenny's SUPER Fact: Only five teams have come away from Moss Rose this season with a League win. Only us, Plymouth, Crawley, Torquay and Oxford have lost fewer home games.
    Lenny's GRANDISON Fact: Jermaine Grandison can rub two pieces of fire together and make wood.
    Lenny's Prediction: Macclesfield 1-2 Shrewsbury (Wright, Collins attendance 3101)

    I will be there to cheer the lads on - after being critical of the performance on Saturday I am expecting the lads to bounce back and Collins to inspire us to a tight 1-0 victory. Floreat Salopia!
    P.S. There have been persistent rumours about a points deduction for Crawley following the mass brawl at Bradford.
    Bring it on FA!

    Are you terracing or seating?

    I do hope there will, but I severely doubt it. However, significantly long bans for three players, club captain stripped of the captaincy, a couple of fines and plenty of turmoil will hopefully throw a spanner in the works for Crawley and their despicable slug of a manager. Bradford, of course, will be without three players for when they play us (although they have recalled their good keeper - Matt Duke, I believe, played in the Premiership with Hull and was excellent with Northampton on a temporary basis).

    In that case it's unlikely that I'll bump into you! Hope it's a good day (and slightly warmer).

    My sodding parents don't have it in them to let me go therefore i'll be putting salt in their tea all night. "You haven't revised enough" well that's irrelevant isn't it, considering i'm doing my best now! Moronic dimwits don't understand the concept of a dangling carrot <doh>

    We will of course know the other L2 results by 5pm today, could make all the difference to our game. If Crawley lose by two goals we climb the table...
