Worry no more, ah big blag and all that, knew all the time. Evatt you card.

Looks like Ashworth is the one who was doubtful.

Shame for him as he was looking in good form and his confidence must have been sky high after two goals in two games.

Surprised Evatt hasn't started Collins but not a bad option to have off the bench I suppose. Morley starting worries me slightly, especially when playing with Sheehan as it leaves a lot for the third midfielder to make up for in terms of physicality and defending in transition.

Thomasson is in there to do the running. If it was Demps then I think I'd be worried.

It is a shame for him but I'm interested to get Ogbeta better, too.

Interesting lack of 'runners' from midfield. Are we expecting Cambridge to play a low block? If so we might need passers rather than runners - or rather the movement will be condensed rotations rather than off-ball lungbusters.

All relieved at Baxter starting I guess. Jones back - after a 16 hour flight. Bit of a risk. Where is Ramsay? Mendes Gomes off the bench can change that midfield as well.

Surprising squad. Happy Evatts got the belief in all our squad that he's going with Morley and Thomason in midfield. I said Morley needed the minutes to impress, he's been overawed by some of the bigger games so this'll be a good test for him to get back into his stride.

Glad Jones is back, but that'll be an interesting one. Hopefully he's fresh and not jetlagged.

Fully expecting it to be Jerome , Collins and CMG off the bench. Hopefully a Jerome hatrick with assists from the others

Sympathy for Burton who called off the Cheltenham game to accommodate us then get called off for the weather.

I’d say if that rain continues there’s a chance this one doesn’t finish…

Plus Bod and Ramsay also out of the 18, and Forrester absent again.

Might be a game for punting this up top tbh. Would imagine playing it on the deck adds an extra level of risk with the pockets of water.

There *WILL* be a "ball holding up on the sodden turf" moment. Statistically likely to be us...
