"Tonight, tonight, won't be just any night" .....from North-West Side story...and you can almost taste the atmosphere from here. No Jets and Sharks at the Unibol, but Wanderers and Shrews battling for territory. Can we teach em how to Mambo? We have to believe "Yes" is the answer. COME ON YOU WHITES, go forth and conquer..

I reckon 3-0 tonight. Early goal to steady the nerves (Collins),game out of sight by half time (JDB). Charles on 2nd half and scores. Bring on Saturday....

I think we'll have to be patient, but we should have enough impetus and will to win the game. Just don't go behind!!

Evatt suggesting that we might see some changes from Saturday due to injuries, so hard to predict the starting lineup.

Iredale would be unlucky to miss out again, for me.

That'll do nicely, and I don't think you'll be far wrong.

If we turn up we can win. Emotional turn around from the effort on Saturday might mean we start slow and blow the cobwebs out. Hopefully Shrewsbury have set out their towels with buckets and spades pitchside.

I'd love to think the season still has something in it but the chance perhaps came and went at the weekend. Won't stop me supporting Cambridge at the weekend, or Carlisle on the last day! If we do the business that is.

Rumours circulating at the ground that JDB is out. Ankle. Could be done until the play-off final.

Geth Jones supposedly the other new addition to the physio table.

Hmm, if that’s true that would mean Jerome starting up front with Collins which wouldn’t be absolutely ideal. Jones we can cope without.

You would be correct. Dan is back however!

Wowsers, Dan out-for-the-season N'lundulu is back. Welcome back Dan, lets hope you can pick up where you left off.

As for JDB that's a big shame.

So that's
• Rico, Jones and Bod all out of the 18
• Sheehan drops to the bench
• Iredale, Forrester, Demps and Jerome replace them in the XI
• Nlundulu on the bench

Ramsay and Ashworth the others not in the 18, as has been the case in the last three games.

2-0. Collins and Charles (off the bench)

officer_dibble · Post by **officer_dibble** » Tue Apr 16, 2024 7:18 pm

Big changes there! I like the look of that back three - hope it isn’t tested.

Post by **DJBlu** » Tue Apr 16, 2024 7:20 pm

Fair few changes there, obviously most are forced.

Big Dan to lead us to the promised land.

No Jerome as well - so one of those sub forwards must be near fully fit?
