After a fantastic win on Saturday away to Ipswich, we now have two evening games in four days at HQ. Our first opponents, Sheffield Wednesday, find themselves 11th in the league, and two points above us. They have, so far, drawn one, lost one and then won one in October, and will be looking to push up the table with a win, much like ourselves.

The big difference between the two sides is up front, with Sheffield Wednesday having scored 20 already this season, compared to our 11. 10 of these have come from Lucas João (5) and Adam Reach (5) with Matias and Bannan also on 3 each. To put this in perspective, our top scorer, Eze, has 3, with Freeman, Hemed and Wzolek on 2 each. So it looks like Tuesday night will be a good test for our much improved defence.

Up to date news on injuries and availability to go up asap.

COME ON YOU SUPER HOOPS!

 

Tend to be good games with this lot. Win or lose, hopefully entertaining. Special game for me as Mrs RTID coming to celebrate my 60th birthday. First time she's been for many a year.

 

Happy Birthday rtid

 

I hope that the R’s will give you a great Birthday present!

 

Happy birthday RTID. Let's hope they give you something more to celebrate

I will refrain from posting on this thread again, due to the possibility of jinxing. Or is that just for away games?

 

Happy birthday RITD. Hope Mrs RITD brings some luck on Tuesday

 

Tx team.

 

Have a great evening RTID - just steer clear of that Kiwi fella, who'll be lurking about the Bush somewhere....

 

Bought my ticket from Twickets this evening. £15 including fees in R block.
