I still don't know what I'd do. I don't know how Darcy fits in, except as a straight swap for Crawford (who's provided half our assists) or an uncomfortable forward. I don't know who plays up top - whether he risks Fonz or perhaps promotes the lad Amoateng as a pacy front-runner to push the oppo back. I don't know how widespread the changes at the back should be - dropping Baptiste feels obvious but Evatt might want experience.

Still paying my tenner though. Just e-chatting with a Mansfield mate who's doing the same. Why would we not?

Mind you, brilliantly, if you click on this "ooh get your ticket" story, both "BUY IT HERE" links go to the Grimsby match report.

Sounds like Fonz is in the mix and Darcy will definitely start tonight. Both big positives for me.
If it's for Crawford then I say fair play.

How can you tell if your ifollow account has been upgraded to season ticket status? Mine still seems to be asking for a tenner for tonight.

I'd say you've answered your own question there LE! Mind you, I've little faith in it after the last 2 showings, where I've missed 2 goals and a penalty save.

My mate says the game only becomes available an hour beforehand, so I'll find out then. Of course, nothing I can do at that point if it hasn't worked. Predictably there was no response to my email.

Have a look at the bottom of the page.

It should say "You already have access to this match." next to the games you can watch.

Thought it might be interesting to grab a few quotes from opposing fans to see how we're perceived in the lead up to matches. Let me know if too uninteresting/depressing to repeat...

"I think we will get our first win as Bolton go into free fall and out of the league. 4-1 to the mighty stags Maynard and Reid 2 apiece and an own goal by McLaughlin."

"I believe they also have injuries to key players.... I think Doyle is out. They got tanked today and we played well, lets go at them and get some goals!"

"Be happy with 1-0 win away and keep Coops unbeaten run going :). Bolton O Super Stags 1 Maynard now he got a sniff of the goals again"

"If Coops can play the best players in their best positions then we have a shot of thrashing them."

"Nailed on draw between two poor sides, hence it's gonna be tough."

"Our defence is shocking and as long as we carry on passing backwards to these lot time and time again instead of passing forward for once we won't win a game of football. Bolton 2 Stags 0"

"They were a shambles at Orient today, let's hope they keep hold of Evatt for our visit. It would be nice to beat them and see that Spireite get the sack afterwards."

"I would swap their bad run (last 10 games) for our bad run though as they have 50% more points than us."

"Need to be shooting on sight with that keeper, he can’t get near the corners of his goal at all"

"Last time I went to Bolton away was Jan 87. We won one nil at Burnden Park and it was raspberry freezing. They pelted us with coins. Made a couple of quid out of it. Happy days"

"3-1 bolton Not confident at all I'm afraid... Hopefully he'll stick with 2 up top thou and not revert back to cookie on his own (which he might consider if playing for a point)."

I think we could use a few of those in reverse.

Looks like iFollow are offering a 1080p(6000kbps) stream. To the layperson, that means we'll look terrible in Full HD.

Bit of good news I suppose.

Well, I've forked out seven quid to watch this game, so it had better be good. :) It's just after 05:00 as I type. The cat will have to wait until half time for her breakfast.

Problem with dropping Baptiste is it means bringing Brockbank to centre half, so one of the shit left backs have to play. Need to swap Taft or Greenidge for a right sided centre half or use Jones there.

I wouldn't want us to move Brockbank from left wing-back bearing in mind the options available to us currently. Baptiste can stay there tonight for me, and hopefully is replaced by Jones when he's match fit.

I'd chance Jones on crutches.

Greenidge's seventh successive pick on the bench, starting immediately after Alexander vacated the pine. Just saying.
