I think we will see if Lee is a three game a week man tonight. Miller probably fancies his chances of a start...not sure on that one. Maddison I’d be tempted to start instead of Isgrove. Get Dapo on the right hand side as well. Sounds like they have a tricky left winger in the Arthur mould with Bahamboula as well!

Here's hoping big Riccardo doesnt fall victim to Crawford's disease. Sign a new contract and turn to rat shit.

Looking at the fixtures we are now 6 at home and 9 away.
If we are to have aspirations of greatness then the homers are must wins and winning four of the away ones would give us 77 points.
Oldham is certainly a target for one of the away wins, COYWM.

Very happy with an away point this evening. Well, at this moment I would be. :)

Gilks, Jones, Williams, Santos, Doyle, Sarcevic, Maddison, Baptiste, John, Lee, Afolayan.

Triple substitution on the hour - Gnu, Delfonso and Miller on for Maddison, Lee/Afolayan and Doyle.

Oh, and a goalie on the bench please!
May the bridges I burn light your way

78 points is the lowest a team has gone up automatically with in the last 15 years. I’m not sure playoffs = greatness but it would be pretty fecking great given where we were in January I shall give you that.

Tempted to rest Sarce maybe as he looked tired Saturday. Rest of team looks right to me . This is the run in now - don't chop and change too much. We could with the group we've got win every game so mindset for me has to be to do that. But a draw wouldn't be a bad result and every point counts.

It's not a must win but given their home record and that they tend to be so open I wouldn't be happy with a point.

I think tonight is the night Maddison comes to the party. 3-2 whites, their second coming late and making it a nervy finale.

I also reckon we'll have a goal ruled out for offside :D

I thought Sarc looked off it on sat but for that reason I *would* be playing him. He's just missed 4 weeks, he's not going to be tired! Given his, ahem, body type, I think he needs minutes to get back into rhythm. An hour tonight.

I'd go

Gilks, Jones, Santos, Baptiste, John, Williams, Lee, Sarc, Maddison, Afoylan, Delf.

I think he'll pick Doyle over Delf, and Isgrove over Maddison or Dapo.

No complaints from me regarding that team and the bench looks very strong. Let's hope we start putting it together for longer periods of the game and improve the goal difference a bit.

Man on the radio says he's just seen them emerge from their special tunnel.

Kick-off is moments away.

Really hope they turn it on tonight.

Fully expecting a tough game tonight. Fingers crossed we can do enough to get the win. We've had professional performances for the past few weeks and hopefully we do the same tonight.

Try the ifollow in an incognito window Harry see if that helps.

How fcuking far away is that opposite touch line? Could they not get the camera up a bit higher?
