Looking forward to this one and quietly confident we’ll get a win especially as my lucky charm daughter will be with me and hoping to continue her form of having never seen us lose… Today will be Match 14 unbeaten stemming back to our 4-2 home win over Rochdale back in Dec 2021… 3-1 Gas…. 👍 I hope you are taking her to Burton next week?

I have concerns, we start this season weaker than we finished the last particularly in defence. FGR may also be in a similar position.
A draw with goals

Not having Connor Taylor, Elliot Anderson or Luke Thomas and not replacing any of them is quite concerning at the moment and no doubt were a weaker side than last season which is not great now we have gone up a level. We are very thin in numbers out wide and at the back with possibly a make shift centre back. The new players In Marquis is a good signing should give us more of a aerial threat up top. Gibbons looks like he delivers a good ball into the danger zone, Rossiter if fit can do a good job also.
But in the centre back area is my biggest concern, Will Connelly perform as well without Taylor is the first thing and if Luca Hoole starts CB will he do a job at league one level. They could be great together who knows.
There is positives in the team for sure but there's also some weak areas that were not weak areas back in May.
I think JB will get the players in before the window closes, but im not overly confident in the squad we got as a whole right now at this level.
Hope i am wrong but.
1-2

Goal less draw hopefully I am wrong also a red card for Matt and Stale Vince running on the pitch at the end pursued by Gasheads in St George outfits celebrating 1966 England World Cup victory over West Germany.
Looking forward to this one

On Thursday Joe said that our history meant we had too many non believers throughout the club. Understandable with our record.
Not now though. There is a new mentality about this club these days. We can all feel it.
A comfortable 3-0 win today will calm our first match day nerves. Joe and coaching team will have prepared for this one.
I’m looking forward to seeing Luca in defence - I so want it to work out for him. Top prospect if he stays focused.
I’m ready. Excitement awaits.

FGR will be up for it, be a proud moment for the club in their first game in the 3rd tier.
Combined with our usual slow start, I'm going for 1-1.

We have replaced Anderson. Marquis signing allows Collins to play wide left. Saunders being back you could argue gives us the Thomas cover. CB is my only really concern before we near the end of the window.

We never win the opening game, so a draw would be like a win.

1-0 Gas, but won't be there as Mrs B has decided today is the day to collect our new puppy.
And it's called Ruby as opposed to my choice of Steve Elliott. As we say in the Rhondda Tampin, Ragin, Fumin. (Tamping, Raging, Fuming equals angry or upset).
Come on you Gas x

CB is my only really concern before we near the end of the window. Keep trying to convince yourself we've replaced the attacking options we've lost and maybe you'll believe it eventually.
