    Gyokeres not quite on it yet. Few mistimed runs and poor touches. Tiredness catching up with him perhaps. Still back him to score.

    Preston are nowhere. Looking to slow it down and number 2 is trying to man mark Gyokeres and getting himself very wound up.

    Unnecessary queues outside. Bloody day trippers. And I as I type that as tongue in cheek I just heard a conversation between blokes in front of me about getting a few pints in each as they walk in. Kick off is in 5 minutes….

    Pretty much guarantees Taveres will get game time then. Not saying he’s the answer (or even that good) but let’s see him come on, lift the crowd and use his pace against tired defenders.

    I still remember the PNE game where we scored two late on to win - Clarke and Baker I think - one of my favourite late finishes and a rare good memory of the Ricoh (as was) in those darker days. Excited for today, we’ll be high on confidence and if we play our football on the front foot, they...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Let’s hope they do some good. Most groups won’t be shouting about it the fact they are attempting to hack Russia. You joke and it’s so unbelievable, yet , you’d be surprised (and saddened) by how many people fall for this stuff! If China and NK decide to up the cyber games then the world is...

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    Absolutely horrific images and clips from Ukraine, all thoughts are with the many innocent people who will lose their lives because of a backwards, egotistical nutter. While it won’t result in direct loss of lives in the same way, don’t underestimate the importance of the cyber warfare that...

    Careful, that will put a real dent in the Robins Out narrative that’s been attempted recently. Although, not exactly objective seen as you are MR.

    Table looks very very interesting indeed….. Remember when we lost to Cardiff and the season was over.

    Moore is absolutely class, really finding his form again. Makes a massive change having a really reliable keeper. I don’t mind Shipley, but seeing him ambling around is really frustrating.

    Nobody should be surprised, since L2 MR’s massive weakness is his lack of subs. His other weakness is his default is to be defensive. We’re seeing them both play out tonight, but it doesn’t make it any less frustrating.

    Plus despite looking knackered recently, Sheaf to help us get on the ball and recycle possession.

    Need some more attacking impetus, has to be Dabo for Kane, Maatsen to LWB and Bidwell for Waghorn (or if he wants the wildcard then Taveres).

    Massive fan of Sheaf but he absolutely needed a rest. Bidwell and Kane is a shame, expect zero attacking intent from the WB’s and therefore quite a narrow attack base. Still hopeful of a win, but a draw would be a great result, especially if we then win on Saturday.

    Possibly becoming a bit of a cult hero and fans favourite. With us since L2 and recently captained us in the Championship. Really enjoyed his celebration yesterday, you could tell how much it meant to him. He’s also always straight over to the fans after each game. That’s exactly what you want...

    Moore - 6 - didn’t have much to do, but flapped at a cross and really annoyed me when he hesitated a few minutes after Taveres came on when he could have released him one on one against their CB. Kane - 4 - terrible. Didn’t rate him initially, then he grew on me, now he’s regressed massively...

    He’s sat back down with his vest on. What a tease.

    Taveres striping off to come on. So much pressure on him.

    Maatsen end ball might not always be the best but he offers a hell of a lot and is an important attacking outlet. We’re a weaker team without him.
