Some interesting points about the defences tomorrow, in that Rob Dickie and Sean Raggett are their current CB partnership. Obviously, one has been with us a couple of times and we tried to sign the other, but have ended up with Jamie Grimes, who was Raggett's defensive partner at Dover a couple of seasons ago (in the 3-2 home win) when we played them in the National League. Dickie is only 21, Raggett is only 23 and, assuming he keeps his place for us, Moore is only 20 - there can't be many Football League games, as a percentage of all games, where 3 of the 4 centre backs that have started are all under 23. If Grimes were to be dropped and replaced by either Boyle or O'Shaughnessy then it will be all 4 under 23.

Also, Raggett and Dickie look remarkably similar in the face.
