I don't care that much as long as we go up. We'll have a much more level playing field with them than we've had this year, and we're likely to finish above both this year anyway.

Yeah, ideally Boro and Millwall come up but as long as we do I'm not overly fussed.

Looks like Hackney is out for 4-6 weeks if the rumours online are anything to go by. If he is out, hopefully its just four weeks which with the international break would not be as bad but could mean he misses Millwall and possibly Ipswich.

Massive game on Saturday with Blackburn. nothing less than a win will do. Will be nearly as many away fans as home fans which should help.

Surely you must be worried about Hackney being out. Everything seems to go through him.

Though he was injured not ill?

He's out with a strained arsehole

 

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

Hackney out with a bad back from carrying Boro all season.

There's a few of those on here

Oh absolutely, it's terrible. He is our best player. The only positive is if its 4 weeks then the International break falls into that so its not as many games as it could be. 6 weeks is a disaster, we will see.

Same for us without Bobby wright and Rudoni and the top teams have players that come in we need players to step up which they have but it feels he is to you what Rushworth is for us

 

[Mcbean]

More interested in bus times to be honest.

Or at least, my friend is .

Yes because you are strictly a train man

And they don't even acknowledge Boro overtaking us for a week.

Yeah, winning the league sounds awful.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Don't want them to come up because they'll spend and Im not keen on the media love in.

But as Ive said before, know a few of their support, (related to some), who were there when they had owners who gave sisu a run for their money so delighted for them.

Can think of plenty of clubs with far worse owners.

We have the opposite at work one of their new breed of fans a local lad to Wrexham a suburb called Tamworth, he was a prick before he followed them he’s still a prick and will be a prick long after he has lost interest.

I heard 4-6 games not weeks for Hackney. That could be fatal for them.

I almost want it over because it's all consuming at the moment. This week between games has been a killer and now we have a two week hiatus after Saturday.

 

[lordsummerisle]

Prefab, not their finest.

Faron Young for me.

 

[torchomatic]

Faron Young for me.

I did really like Andromeda Heights too.

It has us never dropping below 5th but I'm sure we would have after the first game?
