Just a feeling in the old bones, but a I think a defeat may be on the way.
Fair play to anyone who goes, me and grandson had this down as one of our away days.
But just can't be bothered after last Saturday.

Dont blame you at all. I'm going but it could well be my last away game this season (except Wembley). Getting sick of driving all the miles and spunking money to watch shite performances week after week, Tuesdays first half just about tin hatted it.
Last time we went, August 2013 it was a draw 1-1, stayed over in The Shrewsbury, anyhow after the match we went to the boozer, Brooklands Hotel by the ground where we got talking to some Shrews fans, one of which was an impersonator, so asked firstly "hows business", he says "non-exisitent atm" I say "why's that, who do you do?" he replies "Gary Glitter".
Well, I could't stop laughing, poor fella!
And yes it's a good piss up in the Town centre, some lovely ol' pubs, very scenic.
What about the second half - a spirited performance. Just need 90 minutes like that. Saturday, perhaps? Need to play an attack minded team, nothing to lose.

We are due at least 1 win before the end of the season, so I am going to predict it every week until it happens 
I'll be amazed if we win this one. The players confidence under Slade must be rock bottom.
I'd like to see the Checkatrade team put out there tbh.

Yes, a nigh on 6 hour round trip in shit traffic make 45 minutes of ok'ish football a worthwhile exercise. I can't recall when we last put in a full 90 minute performance. Fingers crossed Saturday will be the first of a few.
Have to say I predict a loss, but as another on here posted I can't believe you can get better than evens on a Shrewsbury win (won 5 in a row at home- ridiculously generous odds - ought to be able to fund our club's deficit in one fell swoop). Knowing City we'd then go and upset the apple cart. In all seriousness though, we should at least have a go with players in correct positions (no square pegs in round holes) and attack them.
Going 4-4-2 and us to win 2-0 when it's clearly too late!

The only place we'll find a clean sheet is in the toilets. And maybe not even then.
2-1 defeat.
