Hartlepool vs Crewe

Notts County travel to Plymouth

Orient away at Stevenage

Stanley vs Wycombe

Results could go our way quite easily.

Need a big and noisy home crowd on Tuesday night, today's heroes deserve that as a minimum. This is when the 12th man means the most to a Team giving it their all to pull away from the relegation zone.

2500 tops on Tuesday I'm afraid Carlisle won't bring more than 150 or so, and our league position says it will be the die hards only.

They have a big fan base around London.
Like you have said 150/200 away fans.

Carlisle lost their two centre halves to injury yesterday ; will be interesting to see if they are out Tuesday

2,960. Holman to start and score three.

That's interesting to know. Anything to help our cause for mid-table obscurity.

For "obscurity" read "sanctuary" ;)

Got to believe that we can win every game now, especially on our shocker of a pitch the next 2 games are against top 7 teams and I hope that they are teams who are normally neat and tidy in possession and like to play the ball on the floor because if they are they are not going to get anything at WR.

Well GJ did say our latest recruits were brought in with our bad pitch in mind, so hopefully you are right. Not quite sure how Winchester is suited by the Somme

That your best retort :) Up your game RCS ;)
cant see how it matches up with his obvious good control of the ball on the ground and his passing game. However, so glad we have him as one of our own

I wasn't impressed with Mansfield when we went to their place, that is a game we are more than capable of winning. I'd take a draw tomorrow though and be happy.

Are Mansfield still a team full of big lumps like a few years ago? They might relish our field, if so.

They're now managed by Steve Evans and, despite him being a loathsome individual, he has a fantastic record at this level. Tues and Sat will be difficult games, make no bones about it.

Difficult games and could well lose both, and some would make us favourites to lose both. However, even two draws would be disappointing. My expectation is four points.

Don't suppose our beloved friend Evans is banned from the touchline after being sent to the stands v Grimsby?

That's a bit 'Over The Top' isn't it?

[Did ya see what I did there ? ;)]

Nobody has mentioned it yet and I don't want to be harsh on the lad but I really hope Cranston doesn't just walk straight back into the team tomorrow. He should be on the bench unless Liam Davis is injured.

It has been mentioned in another thread. I said I'll be a bit irate if he walks straight back into the team after 2 clean sheets and wins in his absence. Or, even worse, GJ changes formation to accommodate Cranston and Davis.

Fully agree with Shade and Robin, keep Cranston out of the team. In fact, I'd support what Shade said in the other thread and keep an unchanged team.

"I don't want to be harsh on the lad but I really hope Cranston doesn't just walk straight back into the team."

Maybe a bit to late to be a little bit conciliatory....?

Not really, we are playing well and he's struggled at times he simply doesn't deserve to walk straight back in.
