As for buying players? I despair, the view is so typical of the response to the club’s recent, limited success. We don’t buy players and the commitment to promotion is questioned, we buy players and it’s a potential problem through disrupting the team. 

To be fair, Skous has a point. Mogga tried to shoehorn Whittingham into the team early season and it cost us points. I think we are a lot more stable as a team now but I bet he sticks with tried and tested players today. I'd be surprised if Payne and Armstrong both started. It would be foolish to disrupt a team 15 unbeaten.

Even if he does - bringing Payne and Armstrong in the second half will terrify them.

Tricky game today. Fleetwood were very good at our place. I think we'll need a repeat of the Bennett/Smallwood Shrew extermination.

Didn't realise Fleetwood have just signed Paddy Madden. He was always tipped for better things.

Fleetwood haven't won in 5 at home and have lost their last 3 to Posh, Gills and Bradford conceding 7 and scoring 3. .

We should win but head says a 1-1 draw.

Whilst I feel a draw would be really disappointing after last week where it felt the tide had turned I do think it's a really tricky game and expectation is starting to grow.

nah - we have far too much for them. They will not know whether to defend or attack - we have too much for them to worry about. 1-3 - if not more

If he keeps an unchanged team it will be the first time this season.I expect at least 1 change with Payne or Armstrong coming in for either Conway or Samuel

Pin it up ten times - they dont have enough for us - simples.

They have lost three on the bounce at home to far inferior teams than us, do i need to say more.

Rosler has been making noises about how up for it they are. They played well against Leicester at home who have a better team than us. They would have been up fro that one too.

Let's hope we stuff them but we had a far better team than Northampton too. It's not played on paper.

haha not normally - i think people here will tell you that i am normally quite negative. Just an excellent window, great result last time out and momentum. We have this.

We are going 2nd today too - will make the beers I have consumed worth it.

"Uwe Rosler says that he and his squad are relishing the task of facing high-flying Blackburn Rovers on Saturday at Highbury."

Relish all you like but come the end of the day we will have made mustard of you and you will have a lot of ketchup to do if you want to make the playoffs.

All while we ride the gravy train to the Championship.

yep, I've been on the sauce.

This will be a tough game. Fleetwood are on a run recently and the pitch looks small with a dodgy surface which will suit them more than us. I'd be happy with 3 points in whichever form it comes. A tight 1-0 win I think.

I think he’ll go unchanged for the first time today. He’ll see Conway as providing that cover and work rate away from home against a mid table/top half team.

COYB - 3-1 Rovers.

[JWUpper]

#Rovers: Raya, Nyambe, Mulgrew, Downing, Williams, Smallwood, Bennett, Samuel, Dack, Conway, Graham. 

Subs: Leutwiler, Ward, Caddis, Travis, Payne, Armstrong, Nuttall.

Will bennett be central again? hope so.

[Bigdoggsteel]

Strongest bench we have had in a long time.

Aye, going forward. Not t'other way.

[davulsukur]

Good to see Bennett retain his central place.

His and Smallwoods energy and tackling should be a great asset in away games

[Lie_still_Rover]

Subs: Leutwiler, Ward, Caddis, Travis, Payne, Armstrong, Nuttall.

Whittingham, Evans, Lenihan, Chapman, Bell- wow, some serious competition for places there now, this squad should be rampaging through League 1 

[Sparks Rover]

I'm putting money on a rovers goal in last 10 mins

[Tormund]

Great team and bench. 

Mulgrew to score again.
