I think this is my first Match day thread.
Hopefully it won’t be my last.
I’m going for a 2-1 win with Spence to score a late winner.
Come on Gas !!

Need to build on our current good form
especially our away form to keep the momentum going
Win at home and draw away is promotion form so hopefully we will capsulise on our draw Saturday and win away today.
That said I think it will be a 1- 1 draw

Today I fear that i travel up with hope.
It's always the hope that gets me.
When we went to Harrogate the other week I was convinced we were going to lose, and managed the kids and wife's expectations accordingly. And then it turned out great.
Not sure what to share with my family on the journey up.....should I pretend we are doomed again or tell them maybe.
Just maybe.
Because, obviously, what I think and feel affects the result 😀

Big test, up North on a cold winters night is where we find out the character of this squad, recent evidence gives rise for hope that they are up for the fight, need to grind out results on these occasions if we are to be serious challengers. We have been on a good run and you always think such runs are bound to end sometime, remember under DC we kept putting little runs of 5/6 games together and after each set back we went again.
Had quite a few 'match day thread' debutantes recently and they have a pretty good record so far, i live in hope that Socrates continues this positive trend , come on Rovers , give us a warm glow on this winters night!!

If we get anything from today, it's a positive. Win tonight and there is no pressure on Saturdays game. I fear a little bit, especially for a stretched (and carrying knocks - Alfie?) defence. Hopefully see some players starting to return - Pitman to come on and grab the winner from a Evans corner?
I'd start a little more defensively...
Belshaw
Kilgour Taylor Harries
Hoole Coutts Whelan Anderton
Finley
Nicholson Evans
Grant, Pitman, Thomas, Spence, Anderson all impact options from the bench

Two tough away games coming up,four points would be fantastic but I'd settle for two now.

Salford have a decent home record and have only conceded 6 goals in their 9 games at the Peninsula Stadium.
They're also on a good run of form, unbeaten in November, 3 wins and a draw from their 4 games in all competitions.
They were pre season favourites for promotion and like us, they're clearly improving.
This will be a very tough game and I'd be delighted to come back with a point.

Belshaw Kilgour Taylor Harries Hoole Coutts Whelan Anderton Finley Nicholson Evans Grant, Pitman, Thomas, Spence, Anderson all impact options from the bench Yes, agree with most of that but we have pace in the side so I hope we use that. Salford are a strong, experienced team so I hope we use our pace to stretch them. I hope Grant and Anderson start and Collins and Thomas to stretch them even more later in the game. And Pitman!! Atm we have some good options for attacking, I hope we use them. UTG! |
