I suspect it will be tougher than many think. I think we need to use the squad and get more energy and intensity early on. Get the crowd going.

If Haji's taking to the field with a groin injury whilst Simms sits on the bench that's mad.

He's not injured obviously. He needs a lot of time to get his body and mind going at the required levels again.

Yeah, there’s some short memories. It wasn’t long ago some fans were disappearing early or booing when oxford came here, shoved 11 behind the ball and nicked a 0-0

Sheff Wed have shown a lot of heart considering they’ve been nailed on for going down for most of the season. Hopefully we get an early goal or two and take it from there though

I think this should be a game to suit Simms, who always seems to get goals against poorer sides, and also giving more minutes to Esse and Markelo. I'd also give KKH a start. Probably start pretty strong though to try and put the game to bed before resting players, and depends on how Saka and Onyeka are as they looked to be struggling a bit towards the end. Might be a good game to give Allen a run off the bench late on to get him one away from 200 appearances.

I can't see any way that MVE is rested.

FL will undoubtedly pick his strongest side in order to get us over the line.

Start with the best 11 and then if we are a couple of goals up, then is the time to look at the likes of KKH.

Won't be easy; they've not really folded for anyone recently.

We can't take the piss. Strongest team until it's in the bag.

Jerry Yates to score but hopefully it’s only a consolation and we are already 3 or 4 nil up by then.

We have to show them respect but we will have enough

It's about time Yates scored a hattrick of own goals. It's more than overdue
