Who things it will be a tough game? We struggle there most seasons.But this time we could do with a big performance and a victory...getting another one over them will be a big ask.

I think draw. We're a far better team but struggle against the bully-boy style tactics they employ. A few of our team are quite light. That said if Thomas, Clarke and Jennings can give some of it back then we always have a chance.

Robins comment about Bailey getting a "knock" on his ankle, shin and thigh against Preston Knob End, made me laugh. He will have us right fired up for this fixture I expect a win.

This a tough one. Preston's game plan is not suited for us at all. We are physically beat up each time we play them. We do have to adjust to counter their physicality and while doing so that may impede our success. It's a tough one to know how to combat that. Do you play Leon Clarke up top or bring in the diminutive Elliot? perhaps go to 4-4-2 and put both up top....but who loses out in the middle?
This is one we really want a result at and will be difficult for us. Maybe Preston will be under a bit of pressure at home and we should do what teams do to us at the Ricoh and bear down on them from the whistle?
I'd start Leon up front, keep the system we have and bring back Bailey from the start and Mousa. Be prepared to bring on Thomas and keep Fleck on the bench for this tough physical battle. Will be interesting to see how Robins plays it...

Going to be a very tough game and they will want some revenge for the jpt.
A draw would be a good result in my eyes.

I'm finding it really difficult to give a toss about anything other than the 2 games with Crewe. In fact im finding it difficult to thing about anything other than Crewe 24/7. If we dont get to Wembley im going to cry.
