Feeling apprehensive already. Such a massive match. Viktor will at least have had a bit of time to find his feet so hopefully he will make a difference up front.

I'm expecting a big reaction after the previous game and a much brighter performance. Given the players we have missing I'll be happy with a draw IF the fight and passion is back in the performance. Limp to another defeat and we'll be in danger of getting stuck in a rut at the wrong time of the season.

Home form is pretty good, haven't lost since October in the Blackburn calamity which was the same time as Wdnesday's last away win, so I have some hope.

How nice would it be to see a convincing win couple of goals, clean sheet and an all round dominant performace...... To much to ask?

Almost like the Rotherham match (albeit not the clean sheet due to the obligatory penalty conceded).

We played with two up front that day... To be honest, I'm surprised that no one on here has suggested we play this way tonight, especially as we have not been scoring many goals recently...

If we aren't playing 2 upfront then I'm writing the game off before it starts. CC84COV tells me its the only way we will win games.

How did 1 up front work last time against Sheffield Wednesday ?

I only know that off my head because Clive mentioned it on Friday's phone-in.

He put an argument against playing a 2 resulted in one of our worst performances (Weds), whilst conveniently ignoring that the formation resulted in one of our better performances (with goals!) against Rotherham.

I have it on good authority that he will NOT play 1 up front tonight... In that he's dropping Gyokeres, and playing Jamie Allen as a false nine!

Worried about tonight. We really are hit or miss; will it be the performance v Millwall or the Reading last time out?
Concerned that the defence’s confidence will be shot and I’m not sure how the team will line up without mcfadzean. Will we play wing backs or a flat back 4. One up top or two.
But I’m hoping O’Hare can put his misses behind him and get a goal early and that the whole team responds positively. Hope over expectation or will we come good?

We need to start with Baka and Viktor up front. If we go one up we have no chance.

SBT logic - we must play player who we otherwise think is not up to the standard of the league below because we believe in the myth that two strikers is the only way to score goals.

The key is to avoid conceding needless set pieces, as this is where they're probably most effective, and to keep Bannan quiet.

Then just hope we can scrape a goal somehow.

I just wonder if the team sheet will have ten or eleven players on it.

Well given that we've got a finite list of players who each play in a finite number of positions, it isn't that difficult to work out.

Team sheet released, ‘Can’t believe it’s one up top again’ ‘FFS Shipley’ ‘So defensive’

Early doors a few sitters missed ‘FFS O’Hare’ ‘Osti FFS’

Concede around 20-30 minutes in, myself and @Ccfcisparks declare the game and the world over ‘may as well stop watching FFS’ ‘relegated by March’ ‘warm up the taxi’

See through to HT 0-1

Concede again 45-60 mins Robins declares the game over, brings on Baka for Vick ‘FFS Robins CHANGE IT’ ‘May as well stop watching FFS’ ‘Is it too late to call Jackett’

FT 0-2 ‘I didn’t know it wasn’t on red button’
