IMO tomorrow and Saturday needs to be maximum points if we want to make a push for Play-Offs.
Scunny and Walsall both lower than us in the table and also 19th & 22nd in the form table (we’re 12th).
I wouldn’t be able to take us seriously for a possible top 7 finish if we don’t get 6 from 6.

Excited to see the one touch passing we did so well Saturday - hopefully creating much more - and the young talented back 4

Was a decent performance against Swindon and a decent point… continue to play in the same way and with our form pretty good (we’ve only lost 4 league games since September 25 with us having won 6, Drawn 5 and lost 4 with our issue being that we’ve drawn a few which we should have won) then whilst no game is a given, I think we should be good to Win the next 2 and get 6 points… that would then mean we’d have got 7 points from the last 3 games which is a decent return…

I have a bad feeling about tomorrow - think JB will also rotate a few.

Any win at Scunthorpe sets us up for Walsall. Let’s go 7 points and continue building a good unbeaten run in the league.

would you play Loft against his old club? - i'm not sure I would he might be sympathetic to their situation.

Disagree about rotation unless injuries. Gotta start with the same 11. If Nicho needs protecting, maybe Thomas as a direct replacement. But 4-2-3-1 again for me!

We need to get at least 7 points, need 46 points from 23 games for it to be a successful end with 76 points.
Otherwise it will be another squad partial rebuild.
Need Tony Craig type character to sort out the defence.

I bet he’ll be really fired up and could easily put in a red card challenge. Our record isn’t the best! But in the end I hope he plays and with his head and gets on the end of balls into the box. UTG!

I think 7 out of 9 would be good enough to continue a play off push.

It’s 3 points for each game so no reason Barton would go anything other than full strength tomorrow. It’s crunch time if we want to get in the play off mix.

Scunny just signed Tyrese Sinclair on loan from Mansfield He hardly looks a striker to fear given he's spent his last two seasons on loan at non league outfits, surprised how far Scunny seemed to have fallen as it wasn't that long ago they were playing Millwall at Wembly for a place in the Championship!
