Peterborough at home, hopefully have zakuani and reece-cook back, can't see anything but a comfortable away win
0-3 to Peterborough

If you could do us a favour and hold them to a draw that'll be great!! lol

There's optimism and then there's just being plain silly...

 

[Loyal Dale]

Having a quick look at the records our first and so far only encounter was in the EFL Trophy this time 2 years ago. It was our academy side with our now captain and now top scorer playing alongside Jan Kirchoff and Jason Denayer. Funny how quick things change.

Yep.. that's the only meeting I can find. I went to that game and enjoyed it. You looked to have quite a few decent youngsters if I remember correctly.

Our Official Site now saying we've sold over 1000 tickets, which might be a small number for most teams in L1 but it's about 35% of our home support last week.


Looking forward to a good day out.

 

[THE LAST WALTZ]

The only thing I am looking forward to is abusing the fat, sweaty fraudster again.
As for the game, I fear we may get a good rodgering!

 

[Daz_3000]

We need to beat Rochdale tomorrow and get that winning feeling back, hope the Rochdale fans enjoy their day at the SOL though. Enjoying league one so far and it’s a lot more competitive than some fans of the other clubs seem to think. I’m going for 2-1 to us however nothing surprises me in football and wouldn’t be surprised if we lost by that scorelime either. Haway the lads.

 

[Jamo]

Anticipating a tough game against Burton, as always. They seem to have picked up a bit whereas we've hit a mini-blip - need to get back to winning ways but a point wouldn't be awful at this early stage of the season

 

[Robert Molenaar]

Doncaster will have the most routine 2-0 you'll ever see tomorrow.

I would take point right now please.
We have a patchy record at oakwell.

Doncaster will have the most routine 2-0 you'll ever see tomorrow.

These are the sort of games we take the foot off the gas and end up losing, hope we don’t turn up like Walsall did with us last weekend expecting an easy win.

 

[Craig]

Been a few games since we absolutely battered someone so hoping we put that right this afternoon.

 

[mowgli]

Looks like we're going 4-3-3 again with Onyedinma,Kashet and The Beast up front,it could end up a 4-3 or 5-4 defeat

 

[Craig]

Looks like 4-3-3 for us too. Moore, Adeboyejo and Brown supported by Moncur, Dougall and Mowatt. Could get messy...

 

[DearneValleyRover]

We only play 4-3-3 now and what a change and pleasure it is compared to the last 4 years. Same line up and bench as last week must be a first in probably 4 years as well

 

[joethegill]

We're essentially going 4-3-3 as well! Garmston out finally, with Ogilvie replacing him at left back. Eaves dropped out with Regan Charles-Cook coming back in after injury, and Zakuani back in for Lacey.

Holy

Fuller - Ehmer - Zakuani - Ogilvie

Byrne - Parrett - Reilly

Charles-Cook

Parker - Hanlan
​

Up the Gills.

 

[Gassy]

Such an odd line up from us today.

If Coventry can lob balls into the box with some height, they’ll smash us today.

Lockyer and Craig give away free headers every single time the ball comes in

 

[Jamo]

Looks like 4-3-3 for us too. Moore, Adeboyejo and Brown supported by Moncur, Dougall and Mowatt. Could get messy...

So we're going for the usual tactic at Oakwell, blitz them for 45 minutes and hope we're enough goals ahead by the time the players start to get knackered midway through the second half? Fair enough.

 

[Craig]

Delayed kick off, someone getting first aid near away end.

Delayed kick off, someone getting first aid near away end.

Looks very serious.

 

[Craig]

Looks very serious.

Called off. Air ambulance turned up.

 

[Gassy]

Wow - all the best to the person effected

Terrible news

 

[Jamo]

Does not sound good at all. Really hope the poor guy pulls through.

 

[Craig]

They were doing CPR for ages, don’t think it’s gonna be good news.

 

[Bottega Don]

For the first time this season we've actually looked like the better team.

Good to get another win on the board, very well deserved.

 

[mowgli]

Well chuffed with a point at Pompey where everyone thought we'd get hammered (Including me)

 

[joethegill]

Sounds like we gave it a decent go against Posh, just got destroyed on the break.

 

[Robert Molenaar]

These are the sort of games we take the foot off the gas and end up losing, hope we don’t turn up like Walsall did with us last weekend expecting an easy win.

Nearly right for the scoreline. Relegated by Easter we'll be.

 

[Bobbin']

I'll stay confident and go for a hard fought 2-1 win.

Yep, pretty much.

Did have to work hard for it but was more than deserved.4 wins on the bounce with two in form strikers, lovely. Even if Taylor did miss a penalty today.

Edit: just reading the post match comments, Derek Adams is a whinging knucklehead isn’t he?

 

[womble76]

We are a pile of shit who don't start playing until we are one down at least. Long painful season ahead for us again

 

[thewwfc]

Well chuffed with a point at Pompey where everyone thought we'd get hammered (Including me)

Yup, sounds about right. As long as we can keep out of the bottom 4 we’ll be doing well.

 

[Indian Dan]

Some great results in L1 today!
