This lot would get a result at Reading rather these bloody soft losers.

Even a player short we would have a chance

Yeah I'd agree with that. But out of the two of them even a lazy Wilson still looks more likely to score. 

Think the point your making is we would rather the ball fall to Wilson 12 yards out than we would loft & I can’t disagree with that. Neither look like scoring to be honest mate

I think we'll stay up, but we'll leave it late and be heavily reliant on returning players. Clark, Plant and Garrity all playing full minutes fit for 10 games and we'll just about make it.

Looking forward to getting Clark and Garrity in particular back into that team. We lack grit, passion and a bit of good old fashioned s**thousery, and both have that in them.

Do people really think that Moore has no say over the formation? If he assesses the squad with his new staff and finds that it makes sense to play a completely different way, would he really come under fire? I understand transfers require a village of thought these days but surely DF wouldn't want anything to do with dictating a formation that has yielded 8 league wins in 30?

I'd be tempted give Planty a crack up front, at least he can graft and has quality

The Pole is called Lopata and he's the pick of our defence at the moment.

One thing I want to see is someone waving there hands around & going mental trying to lift the team & rally the fans. Only person I saw attempting this on Saturday was Lopata! Ripley & Loft also fall into this mould in regards to their effort but nobody else give a 💩 Crying out for Garrity to return. Hopefully he’s back in the squad tomorrow. I’m not hopeful or expecting any points return away from home from now until the end of season apart from burton where I think we will pick up at least a point. It’s our home games that will define our season come May. And we’ve got some biggies against teams around us!

Looks a great player

Tomorrow get up the pitch we beat ourselves sat by after taking the lead thinking defence was the way to go after conceding 3 and generally looking ill at ease defensively throughout and making Cheltenham look like they were prime Barcelona. 

Defence is not the way go .
