Bit of a blow for us with Leon Legge now confirmed to be out at least a couple of months after picking up an injury at Stevenage. He has been an absolute rock otherwise this season. Assuming we are going with the 3 CB’s tomorrow it’s a big opportunity for Aaron Martin who to be fair did well when he came on.

I'd be worried about Johnson on current form.

Smith - Martin - Jones with Benning and Cass at full back would be best suited I think.

 

[Scunny Pacifist]

I can see us beating Tranmere. I really can.

 

[Bottega Don]

I can see us beating Tranmere. I really can.

Any idea who's the two players missing due to Covid?

 

[Monkey Tennis]

You did see our score against Exeter no? and since then we've lost our only 'goalscorer' from last season

Our fans would/will have an absolute meltdown if we lose. Relegation nailed on, manager on the brink of quitting, players begging to leave before the window shuts.

If we squeeze a 1-0 win though, we'll be in the promotion mix and one loan striker away from being the best team in the division.

 

[hellogregory]

Not confident at all about tomorrow. We’ll make a game of it I think, but our inept attacking play and inability to threaten opponents goals will mean Hartlepool will likely only need 1 goal to win, but with their good home record I think they’ll get 2.

Hartlepool United 2-0 Carlisle United

Followed by a huge meltdown from a portion of our fans including calls for Beech to be sacked (I won’t be one of them calling for his head btw).

 

[Chief Rocka]

Sounds like we've got everyone available for selection tomorrow, I'd imagine he won't change the team having won last week, dunno what to expect from Carlisle, but they can't be any worse than Walsall last week who stunk the house down.

Should be a good atmosphere, stopped selling tickets this afternoon so there's gonna be a 6,000 crowd, including the 980 Carlisle, which is not bad going I guess?

2-1 either way.

We aren’t bad really, just pretty ineffective where it matters.

 

[BogDaddyO]

Just put Bradford to win away on your accas, free money, we've been dreadful and can't see us improving without more signings.

 

[MadJohn]

Our fans, particularly the younger ones, are really selling the Carlisle game tomorrow as something huge. I think they're pining for a proper derby.

Whatever, it's sold well, and it'll be good to see the old place three quarters full. We'll have to overcome our traditional stagefright. Of the 13 highest attended HOME games over the last two decades, we have won.... none. The largest Vic crowd that did see us win in that period also saw us relegated.

Oddly, unnervingly, pointlessly confident. 1-0.

 

[Sestonpoolie]

We've sold out our allocation for Harrogate away this weekend. Ignore attendance figures as I've been told a few fans are feeling under the weather, but trust me we have sold out.

Great support as usual from you lads.

To be honest,i don't mind Carlisle replacing Darlo as our derby.
You can always rely on them bringing a large away support,which always wasn't always the case with our mates down the A66.

 

[Soup Ladle]

Calm yerselves lads. Carlisle is not and will never be a Derby.

 

[Cas]

I can't shake the feeling that we're gonna lose tomorrow and I've no idea why. Hope I'm wrong and we can continue our great start to the season. Sod it, I'll go for a 2-1 win. Cook to score duh.

Colchester drew 1-1 with Rochdale tonight. Here is their goal:

[Chief Rocka]

Perspective is probably throwing me off here but that keeper looks incredibly sus.

Like Hong Kong betting syndicate sus.

 

[Soup Ladle]

I don't understand why L1 or L2 players feel the need to corrupt the game for money. They can just sign for Wrexham instead?

Sadly; it was a monumental cock up by Max Taylor rather than the goalkeeper who had come to the near side (as you should) Taylor never looked up, and hit the ball firmly into the far corner of the open goal.
I think it was the only effort on target from either side in the first half.

Under 11 stuff I'm afraid.

I think the real reason you were happy you got back is that you could foresee the cataclysmic fractures within the Brotherhood.

If we'd lost the shootout and Challinor left for Wrexham as was feared, bearing in mind that Deadpool wanted to buy us first, there'd have been hell on. Absolute HELL ON.

 

[Indian Dan]

Really looking forward to the game - reckon it will be a right good 90 mins. No idea how it’ll go. Surely Mansfield haven’t got another Maynard that’ll miss 4 sitters like he did a few seasons ago!

I’ve had a nibble on us at 21/10 - we should never be that sort of price even if we end up not winning.

Mansfield be warned - we seem to be expert shithousers this season!

 

[F!RTHY]

Woke up to an awful feeling that we’ll get pumped at Leyton Orient today. Can envisage Connor Wood curling a 30 yarder in.

I’d take a draw right now.

 

[Bone Idle]

Here's hoping we are the latest team to come away from the penicillin stadium with 3 points.

 

[Boz]

I can see us beating Tranmere. I really can.

Any particular reason? Don’t have any strong feelings either way save that Rovers might actually score today. Won’t be going probably a good thing as it’s now over a decade since saw Rovers win away in a competitive game.

No reason. We havent won in a veryblong time so got to keep optimistic. Plus you dont seem to score many so this is a good opporrunity

I would take a draw today. Big test.

Talking of Maynard, reminds me of this absolute cringe fest.

Trouble with Wrexham,s signings is mostly EFL players.
Think they should of spent more wisely, Maybe a couple
from sutton and ourselves who have been there done that.

 

[RiftHouseLad]

Calm yerselves lads. Carlisle is not and will never be a Derby.

Doesn't matter what league darlo are in they will always be our derby.
Trouble is the younguns didn't get chance to be at feethams when they was 6,000+
poolies there, what a night that was.

MadJohn please keep away from the razor blades today,lol

Slept on it, drove up from Leeds, still feeling confident. We'll be fine today

You took more away then you've ever really averaged at home games? That doesn't sound plausible.
