Hoping the Polish Puyol starts today, winning the ball in the air and making some tough tackles.
A hard fought 0-0 for me, building confidence from the back.

Head says 3-0 Chesterfield
Heart says a much better battling performance, but a lack of quality ultimately resulting in our demise: 1-0 Chesterfield

Someone on Facebook saying they have heard that Conteh and Kilgore are both out after a hard collision in training on Thursday. Has anyone else heard anything? Not a great start if true. Hard collision. Those two. You must be joking. They are two players that do actually tackle?

Park the bus and get a draw or maybe sneak it late on.
Otherwise I can only see another, possibly heavy, defeat.

You actually believe there is fight in this team? Yes. DC is adding it one player at a time. The last one was the Swiss lad who came on Tuesday night and was a breath of fresh air. He actively wanted the ball, went looking for it, rather than giving it to someone else straight away. Today is about introducing Kacper, traditionally DC didnt play loan signings. However, I am expecting him to go straight into the side today and to be a battler.

We’ll flatter to deceive today. Look decent for 20 mins before going 1-0 down and then look like conceding again throughout. Optimist in me still says 1-1 with a Cavegn 90+4 equaliser

I hope you are right but if you are and a Barnsley reserve player, who has spent more time playing outside of the EFL than in it, can make your suggested difference to this squad, then that just highlights how poor the team really is. Watching the video playback of goals we have conceded, they are laughable. Conceded not because the players were not "battling", but because they are not good enough. No sense of positioning, no communication, to slow and cannot head a ball when challenged. I have seen better in the Southern League Premier. As it stands, I fear us dropping out of the EFL is a very strong possibility.

Well hopefully Mola won't get it n the way of Kilgour and the new polish lad defending.

Time to drop players like Thomas & Ruel and pack out the midfield with more aggressive players like Howley, play Omochere & Harrison upfront and then just battle away for 60 mins, hoping the new lad brings some steel to our defence. Boom!
