Lofty will score today. I actually think he'll get a brace.
Gas 3 - 1 Hartlepool

Well if we don’t win today it’s cos I didn’t get to keep my winning league threads going. Rovers 4 Hartlepool 1 - loft, Nicholson, Thomas, Pitman

Been such a while since we’ve had a home / league game it feels like a start of season game today.
Come on Rovers, let’s treat this like it actually is a new season and go on a winning run.

Realistic prediction:
Rovers start well but concede from a corner early on. Fighting back, have 2 clear cut penalties turned down and Pool start time wasting from the 35th minute unpunished by the ref.
Loft starts well and looks promising, drawing several saves from the keeper. On 58 minutes he goes into a 50/50 and stays down, gets stretchered off and is out for 4 months with ligament damage.
Rovers equalise in the 87th minute courtesy of Thomas playing in Clarke on the wing and the cross being bundled in at the far post by Collins.
Despite hitting woodwork Pool hang on for a point and we are again asking why after playing quite well, we aren’t getting points.

Rovers team to start according to EP.
Rovers (4-2-3-1): Belshaw; Connolly, Taylor, Harries, Anderton; Coutts, Whelan; Nicholson, Evans, Collins; Loft.
I am hoping Harries does not go straight back in, he should get a place on the bench imo . I would partner Taylor with either Connolly or Anderton and bring Clarke in to left back, but pretty much agree with the rest.

Agreed, if Clark is fit he should play on the left IMO, with Anderton LCB alongside Taylor. It's 50/50 between Hoole and Connolly at RB for me, but I think Hoole would be unlucky to miss out if he's fit. Otherwise I am happy with that, and bring LT on in the last 20 mins or so for one of the 3 behind Loft.

Nice to have so many options for a change, by my reckoning we have 7 players available today who weren't in the squad last weekend. With others still to return we suddenly have strength in depth pretty much everywhere which we'll need with the amount of games we still have to play. Whoever is picked I hope we go after Hartlepool from the start, our season really needs to click I to gear from now if we're to have any chance of the play offs.

Really looking forward to this one as my daughters a mascot…. I’ve told her to try and walk out with Belshaw, Evans, or Nicholson if she can…. I’ve also told her that there’s no pressure but she has a 100% win record so far when watching the gas so I’m quietly confident of a win….
In true Marshy style I’m going for 3-1 win, Loft Collins and Pitman (on as sub) to score….

Good luck to our debutees ,Gasandelectricity, and Lofty, this game so important and will give us some idea as to our hopes for rest of season and will set the mood on this forum and for Rovers fans every where, a good performance and 3 points could be the first step on the rung to better times. JB Has a few more options now though interestingly enough we have turned in some decent performances despite injuries and suspensions. I feel quietly confident that we can win well today and go on to climb the table, come on Rovers! PS Memo to percypurnell, 'if you want to start a matchday thread you can't afford to have a lie in! (or should that be lye in?)

I know that this is not the place to talk about cricket, but hope the Gas go out today and show some backbone unlike the England cricket team.

Really hope Harries doesn't play, there is a mistake or 2 in him every game, along as he doesn't play I think 2 0 Rovers but if he does play 2 2
