You go with your best team. Most people would anticipate Shrewsbury is easier than Derby and more important not to lose ?

Tonight is a free hit. Shrewsbury are fellow contenders in the bottom half.

If he's saving players for tonight we damn well better win then ! 

At this stage of the season there are no must-win...must not lose games. Although we'd obviously like to win them all. 

If Crosby picks a lose the will to live team, with players in lose the will to live positions, I'm likely to lose the will to live whilst we actually lose the game. 

But let's hope that's not the case. We can win this game if we go about it sensibly.

If he picks players out of position and we lose heavily he is probably going to have to go, regardless of how unlucky we may or may not have been over the last however many league games. And I am not one for change usually. If he does go then Carol has to pay the going rate for a good quality league one manager and a striker (one at least)

Maybe its because we hardly create anything might be the reason that we do not score goals

I think we do create  chances in each game BJ but just dont take enough of them. Other teams , in games we have dominated possession wise , get a couple of chances and do actually take them.

yeah i wouldn't say we aren't making a few chances we just aren't clinical at all

1 change, lowe in for chizzy

Looks like more of the same… true definition of madness 

I dont expect Crosby to be in a job tomorrow morning if we lose!

I’ll be happily amazed if we win tonight

I can't remember who brought it up before Warren. But what constitutes a shot ? 

I maybe remember getting excited about 3 times on Saturday that we might score. Certainly not 22 times. 

Darren report it to Staffs Police and ask them to investigate the PVFC shoot to miss policy.

No doubt tonight we will win and he will keep his job a bit longer.  However, can't see him being sacked if we do loose.  He already has his after match chat off pat now.  We tried, however, we need to be more clinical in the goal area, midfield need to defend higher up and the defence need to defend more.

Agree with Sposon for once about the current squad, problems they are currently under (3 points out of 30).  Stupid goals being conceded and just can't score.  Nice football, but teams have sussed the Vale.

Some would say win just one game would be good.

we do not make the opposition keeper work at all in most games

Looks like smith on the right of the back three again. How many times does it need to be proven that he can’t play there.
