blueboy3333 Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 5 hours ago, Paul said: 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.

blueboy3333 Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 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.
Backroom Tom Posted January 20, 2018 Backroom Posted January 20, 2018 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.

They will not know whether to defend or attack - we have too much for them to worry about. 1-3 - if not more
islander200 Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 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

Your post has just been pinned up in their dressing room 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.

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.

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.
JacknOry Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 "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.
benhben Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 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.
G Somerset Rover Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 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 Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 #Rovers: Raya, Nyambe, Mulgrew, Downing, Williams, Smallwood, Bennett, Samuel, Dack, Conway, Graham. Subs: Leutwiler, Ward, Caddis, Travis, Payne, Armstrong, Nuttall.
SBlue Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 Just now, blueboy3333 said: Well I never, unchanged it is COYB
Bigdoggsteel Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 Strongest bench we have had in a long time.

davulsukur Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 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 Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 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 Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 I'm putting money on a rovers goal in last 10 mins
Tormund Posted January 20, 2018 Posted January 20, 2018 Great team and bench. Mulgrew to score again.
