Need a win here really to keep the pressure on with the tow above us playing the bottom two the day after.

I’d bring Thomas in for Shipley (assuming he turns up for training) and otherwise keep it the same.

let me guess
if we get into 6th, then we will have more rating points?
if we go down into 10th we will have fewer

how much time are you spending on this?
Either you are a genius, and we are just not clever enough to understand - or you are a complete Fruit cake
I am not sure which

Win this one and we temporary go 2 points behind. Puts lots of pressure on Peterboro and Charlton. Come on city!! Need at least 4 points from the double home fixtures.

Got to hope for a win in this one, keep up the run and the faith.

Head says 1-1, hiwula goal

Heart says 2-1 hiwula and Bakayoko


And a new Ricoh deal to be announced by midnight. Or am I being too optimistic

Not sure what's happened to Burton recently but their record over the past 2/3 months has been absolutely dire. It's been every since that absolute drumming by Manchester City actually. A mere 8 goals scored in 11 matches, 4 losses, 6 draws and 1 win against bottom side AFC Wimbledon.

I thought Burton looked a decent side when we played them, well organised, pressed us hard. I think their biggest problem is the same as ours, not enough goals.

They’ve Only lost in 2 in last 13 in the league, not many wins but certainly no how to frustrate and draw games which I’m sure they’ll be happy with here.

Hopefully city fly out the blocks and try and get an early goal otherwise it could be a long frustrating evening!

Yeah suppose it's a bit harsh counting the Man City losses. They definitely seem difficult to break down which will inevitably be a concern for MR. Not the type of team we do well against.

Think it's most likely to be another close scrappy low-scoring game, but at home I'm confident of a win. Quite happy to keep the team unchanged, but bringing Thomas back in wouldn't be a bad option.

I dunno, I thought I'd write something about football. Call me old fashioned. This thread is 19th in the list and I am fed up with the ill in formed speculation on all the other threads. We seem to actually enjoy angsting over the future of the club (over which we have little or no influence) rather than talking about FOOTBALL.
On the basis of how the two teams seem to play (good defences and poor attacks) it going to to be 1-0 or 1-1. We need it more than them, so I expect us to nick an ugly game. I would revert to the Luton line up, Thomas for Shipley. I would love Bemang to get a run as a sub. We need to beat Fleetwood as well to keep the dream alive before the crunch game with Posh

Could be an interesting night on Friday depending how things develop, if nothing improves though I fear it will be a toxic atmosphere....City to win 3-1 regardless

Christ almighty a football thread!

Really looking forward to this next 10 days we could be in the playoffs after the Peterborough game.

2-0 Baka and Bayliss
