We need at least 4 goals to make up for the 4 we should have scored away at Bolton .

Anything less than 3 points would be massively dissapointing. Confident that if we play with the speed and quality that we have showed, really throughout the season, but particularly tuesday night, we should win the game.

But it is games like this which have me considerably more nervous than say Tuesday night against Portsmouth.

It's giving Elo ratings to all the teams in the league, like how players are rated in chess. The points you gain/lose are weighted according to the opposition's rating.

Cant make this one but trying to work out how I can get to St Andrews on time for the Pompey game already (busy this weekend).

I don’t think our good season has broken into the wider consciousness yet. If we are near the top in a month or so you’ll start getting randoms asking about us again and the bandwagoners will turn up.

It analyses how clubs are doing and creates a table with the best teams at the top and the worst teams at the bottom. Thank god we have it or how else would we know.

Seems like he could come straight in

Seriously though, winning percentages are measured a bit differently between sports.

Whilst the figures here are for chess the underlying principles seem to be the same.

Check out the section on winning percentages.

The colours in chess of course and their winning percentages, should, in my opinion, have a correlation to when a team plays either home and away.

First-move advantage in chess - Wikipedia

Or in other words, something like this should happen over a season when playing in a league format.

This is last season.


You can see the same sort of structure starting to appear this season as well.

He doesn't mention Mason and McCallum, that is the question he is asked. He just calls him powerful and quick.

Didn’t someone post something about the reason he was recalled from Shrewsbury being because they wanted him played as a wingback not a winger?

When asked if he’s likely to start he mentions that he’ll need to fight because of Mason.

“But he has to fight because as we saw the other night, Brandon came in the other night and did really well.”

Course but he could say he’s going to play in a different position. Anyway that’s the only reason cause he seems to think of him in the same light as Brandon

But the comments he made upon signing talk about him as an attacking player.

Tough game tomorrow certainly not the easy team we drew with. They have picked up and beat Tranmere last week just hope we don't think we only have to turn up.

I'm hoping this will be our biggest home win of the season.
A 2 or 3 goal margin would be great.
We really need to improve our goal difference since it could matter at the end of the season.
And we need the 3 points to keep in touch with the leaders.

marosi
Dabo
McCallum
Rose
Hyam
Mcfadzean
Walsh
Kelly
Allen
Max
Dreadlock hero

A cheeky

3-4-1-2

Not sure on Kelly and Rose

Means a bench of

Wilson
Pask
Mason
Godden
Shipley
Westbrooke
Giles

So no place for Jones just yet
