Why Hiwula and Thomas? Why not Willis and Hyam? Or Bright and Baka? Or Burge and Sterling?

Just a gut feeling, Robins doesn’t let Burge get forward enough for me to think he’ll score

I may well have missed it, so please someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I saw about this on Midlands Today this morning, yet no one appears to have come on here to try and increase attention for it? Or if they have I have missed it. Seems a bit strange to not try and garner support from a fairly large contingent of City fans for it.

Weather forecast said rain coming in early evening, so we should be dry all night.

Realy looking forward to this one. 5-0 City. Hiwula, Bayliss, Bright, Bakayoko and Thomas.

I just hope the ref is a capable one as they are an 'experienced' side.

A game we need to win if we are to have a realistic chance of play offs but the sort of game we often come unstuck in. Hoping for a big win but expecting a scrappy 1-0 to us.

I'm hardly ever office based but find myself here today. I can't believe how much I've been clock watching, or how much it's actually making me feel excited about a CCFC match.

Look I know we all know this but it bears repeating. After Burton we have 5 home fixtures of which only Fleetwood should be challenging. We could actually win all 5. But we have 5 away fixtures against teams above us Posh, Pompey, Barnsley, Sunderland and Doncaster - a possible "nil point". All have something to play for except possibly Pompey. What chance 5 wins and 5 draws? Long shot. Still live in hope though, and just pleased it is mid-March and we have something positive to play for, which given the inexperience of the team, is a huge hat tip to Mark Robins.

It’s simple. We need to beat the two directly above us and win one more game than they do in the rest of our matches. That’s it. Be in slightly better form than two teams.

Yeah that's absolutely right, but at least I won't be at work then. Instead I can come on here and moan about the football, which is a bit better.

Plus it probably won't be half 8... If we haven't scored after 10 minutes I'll be getting ready to push the Robins Out button.

3-0, Hiwula x2, Bright.

MR and the players must be feeling confident and motivated by the chance of making the play offs.

I’d bring Thomas back for Shipley and go all out attack. I’ve said it all season and it’s been evident since we started to, but when we play football we are one of the best teams in this league. Now our strikers are starting to find their shooting boots, it’s all coming together. Feeling confident.

I hope the crowd focus on the game for the full 90+ minutes, no ‘SISU Out’ chants etc. Nothing but support for the team in what is a big big match.
