If we get autos there's only 1 type of double I'll be concerned about

Double Big Mac right?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Stoke played a winger upfront last game who has 1 goal all year.

Few words from mark robins

 

[robbiethemole]

Feels weird for him to be saying 'them' instead of 'us', looks like maybe he wishes it was still him in charge

Same 16 with Yang modelling new brown shirt in the casino.

 

[quinn1971]

No injury worries tomorrow, same team ?

 

[Lamps]

Opta up to 96.58% for autos
Madness

It's totally in our hands. Middlesbrough need 2 more wins than us. Ipswich need to win their 2 games in hand then also need to win 2 games more than us. Hull and Millwall need a few wins more than us. All these teams have to play each other so there will be a lot of dropped points with only 12 games to go for most of us.

But the sudden confidence on here is getting me a little worried. No game is a given. Take each game as it comes. Win our home games and we're about there.

Double Jameson’s for me please with one chunk of ice

 

[Flying Fokker]

After 6 minutes

They have at least 5 first teamers injured. Lots of inexperience on the bench. Apparently.

@fernandopartridge reckons it’s 1969 for West Brom.

That's a JH promise

I'll be having at least six doubles I can guarantee that

Watching the little 3 points thingy after the game
Haji looks much more at ease with his left arm

 

[Mcbean]

Normally when teams have many out for injury the replacements do a brilliant job

Stoke were doing well until their injuries started to mount up. They've struggled for a few months with injuries and the problem is they have a good 1st team but not much more. Robins hasn't had much of a chance to build a good squad yet.

 

[Johhny Blue]

Any news on Rushworth's injury? Looked bad at the time, even Wilder was fuming the game wasn't stopped sooner.

Looks like he’ll pull through.
Thank you to fans of both teams for all your prayers and well wishes.

76 yr old Paul Parsons is walking the 54 miles from Stoke to the game in support of Muscular Dystrophy.
In support of his (everybody’s) cause What’s the chance of chanting his name on 54 minutes?
“ There’s only one Paul Parsons”
Paul, if you get to read this I’ve made a $100 (Canadian) donation in your name

 

[Johhny Blue]

Yes he is correct, both games played in the August remarkably

Years ago we used to play the same team on Easter Saturday and Monday

 

[BrisbaneBronco]

Yep and only 1 sub too.

 

[Skyblue_CP]

Few words from mark robins

It’s very fitting that he will be there on Legends Day. One of the biggest that will be in attendance.

 

[stevefloyd]

Another 40 years since we did the double apparently. Same as Sheff Utd was? Or was it West Brom?

Cant see past a home win here. Our record at the CBS under Lampard is impeccable.

Don't forget we helped Mark Hughes get the sack when they were a prem outfit (just) so we should hopefully win but no doubt in true CCFC fashion after our 3 battling wins we go into hiding and fuck up

Tag?

 

[StrettoBoy]

I'm nervous about today's match, although to be honest I think that's going to be the case for the rest of the season now. The final run-in is fast approaching and every game is starting to feel like a cup final.

I'm in a bit of a dilemma about Oneyeka. I tend to agree with those who think he needs a rest but he has already shown what an important player he is for us. I'd probably start with him but bring Eccles on around 55-60 minutes or even at half time if we lead by, say, a couple of goals.

I can't believe what strength in depth we suddenly seem to have, now that our illness and injury problems have - for the time being at least - gone away and we have had a good January window. It's insane that, in midfield, we can have Torp, Eccles and Allen on the bench or, in the case of Allen, not even in the match day squad.

PUSB!

 

[Great_Expectations]

Said it before Sheff U and same today; having squad depth doesn’t mean we have to change the starting XI.

Keep the winning team, go at them early and make substitutions early. Knowing it won’t be at a detriment to the team and we can adapt tactically as required.

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

Here we go boys another step towards being champions

easy easy easy easy easy

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

Stop it. You're saying what everybody's thinking

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

It's important that we (players/fans) are up for the so called easier games between now and the end of the season. In my head I've only considered Southampton, Wrexham and possibly Derby as teams that could cause us any issues at our place, whilst with Stoke, Sheff Wed, Pompey and PNE (I know), I've mentally collected the points. Difficult not to try and predict results as the finishing line draws nearer; I just hope we don't get complacent.

 

[SeshMouseSkyBlue]

Let’s just better the results more often than not of the teams below us . Simple enough

 

[Sick Boy]

Was gonna have a few quid on us to win 3-1 tomorrow

About as likely as me taking my boots and getting thrown on for Haji for the last 5.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

I want us to be going for it and clocking wins as quickly as possible. Players should be feeling confident and enjoy themselves out there.

I want us to be targeting 90points to ensure the job is done.

 

[covcity4life]

Bit nervous. Only takes one loss to make everything look precarious again.
