Hoping this will be my first away of the season if I can get tickets, but away capacity is less than it used to be.  We'll be in the Bycars End, the Hamil Road now occupied by Vale fans. 

Not sure what capacity of Bycars is but less than Hamil Rd so not likely to be enough to satisfy demand.

£25 in home end for this game so presume same for us.

Players being tired is an excuse that doesn’t wash with me at this stage of a season.

These are athletes whose only job is to be fit and kick a ball about.

Last month of the season, fair enough, but not the end of September.

I thought we’d put that one to bed last week when the hysteria kicked off about fitness after Reading? Character, fitness and stamina was put to the test with 10 men last week and we came through without issue.

The thing folk always forget in these debates about fitness is the relativity factor. On a Saturday you might have fitness levels roughly 90 per cent of where you'd like but you're playing a team at 100 per cent. The following Tuesday night you might be up against a side only at 70 per cent. Different days, different circumstances.

3-1, Dion brace and Bod.

Not got a good feeling.

Hope I'm wrong.

Dion wincast for me today. 0-2.

 

bench is horrendous

unsure how Dan starts ahead of Bod 

anyway, COYWM

Threadbare.

Can only think Bod is struggling for fitness.

2 goals Vs filth kids rather than the one. 

2-0 to the Super Whites. Dion and Dan.

How many times will we be saying "he's like a new signing" in the next few weeks/months 😂

Must be, and a worry.

Good to see Dempsey as Captain. 💪

Dans chance to prove his doubters wrong hope he does 🤞

Go for 4-1 just to get Dadi on the scoresheet too

Not long now.

Proper test of the strength and depth of the squad so for me any sort of win would be great, and to get that we'll need to play really, really well.

As long as we don’t pick up injuries and have to make changes from the bench  the starting eleven should still be strong enough to get a result . Evatt told us he as faith in the squad so let’s see if they can produce 

All good so far but the final passes not really working.

Miss from Dion?

If it was a miss, it is shocking.

Looked to me like there was a touch by the keeper though 

Good start 

Bench doesn't concern me too much.

Two young lads who've just scored and I reckon could hold their own, two experienced strikers, one of whom is showing signs of getting back to form. 

Decent starting 11 too.

Just a case of if we're playing well enough to win.

Yeah but we need to take chances and at least score first.....

When has that been said  before?
