My worry with the defence is when they bring somebody like Calvin Andrew on. I am not too sure Drysdale would be able to deal with him.

He would be the ideal player for McFadzean as well.

Really hope Baka hits the ground running in this game and gets a couple, got a feeling he'll get a few any time now

I think the same mate

Hopefully we'll get a pacey striker in on loan and then 1 on a perm, possibly Rose from Mansfield

Godden is alright at holding the ball up plus max can do it too so we won't need a target man

I rekon all of the forwards apart from Max and Godden will be shipped out in Jan

Robins will probably try to sell Hiwula also

Don't think MR is likely to find a taker TBH and as they're out of contract end of year it'd have to be on a free.

If he can get them off the wage bill for a minimal pay-off he'd look for others but I can only see it happening very late in the window and not give him much time to bring someone in. It'd only be a short term loan of a youngster if anything.

Although MR does seem to have players he just doesn't fancy I think we're far more likely to be in a situation where we'd be looking at how we might get Ponti involved once his loan ends, even if just off the bench or in case Godden suffers a setback.

So without the 3 sides directly above us not playing tomorrow we can go third with a win

Rochdale have some good form away from home, picking up the same amount of points as Oxford and Wycombe and carry a big goal threat in Ian Henderson who has 8 goals in 17 games this season

We play well and we win (provided we don't have another completely inept officials - apologies in advance to Adge, but if that costs us again, I'm not going to be impressed).

I've got no confidence today for some reason. Hopefully that means we win comfortably. It's a big one really with the games ahead. Need the 3 points.

Somewhere between the waitress and her table.
This is CCFC, lose this one...

Then beat Sunderland and Ipswich

and i would snap your hand off at that right now!


You might well snap my hand off, however as much as I'd love to help, I cannot guarantee the results of these games. However I'll give it a go for £10 a game if you want - so £30 up front.

Just a comment - if I were buying results I'd want the three wins. Paying £10 so that we lose the next game seems mean-spirited.

I'm predicting a tight game today, think we will sneak a 1-0 win. Drysdale to come in for McFadz, and Hiwula for Biamou.

Unusually confident today, I can feel it in my waters (but that might be the medication). Don't know why. 3-1. He sticks with the Colchester formation, preferring players who in form even if they are slightly out of position.

Excited for this one, first time I’ve made it down since Southend. 6 of us going, enjoying a few establishments in Brum beforehand.

Feeling 1-0 us, we should be too strong for them.
