Interesting game against Gills tomorrow, they had a thumping 4-0 win last week and we covered ourselves in glory against Blackpool, Tom Eaves is one handfull up front and hope he does'nt know he could be up against Craig Morgan, he has vast experience in league football and has been round the block, the thing that worries me about him is I have seen milk turn quicker so watch this space

Providing we play to our attacking strengths we are in with a chance but I think it could finish as as a draw 2-2

Dale v Luton. We're inconsistent, at best. Luton seem to be finding a bit of form. But Calvin Andrew scores when he wants, in this case a 90th minute winner against his boyhood club - making it 3-2 after Henderson and Hylton have swapped braces.

Hopefully a decent turnout from the Hatters - as they've not been for a while maybe 7-800?

You just know both of those players will score for you, both being distinctly average in their time here. Still one the biggest mysteries to me how we managed to sell Andrew to Palace.

I believe I saw we had sold 750 so far, I’m toying with the idea of going as i see it’s now open for pay on the day.

Calvin Andrew is certainly a blast from the past and one of those players who looked as if he would go on to do greater things. How old is he now? Bound to get one tomorrow as we seem to let old players score against us. An out of form McGeehan was the latest for Barnsley.
Hopefully we will continue our form and look to dominate play from the off. The squad is now looking very good with competition in every position. This should get the best out of our players. I expect pretty much the same team as Wimbledon but NJ is capable of making a change or two depending on what type of game he expects. Personally I would prefer Collins or Lee alongside Hylton rather than player all three. Thought Lee looked out of sorts against Wimbledon although he did score that vital second goal.
Don't know what to expect from Rochdale. A team tipped to struggle but find themselves mid table. A good win against Charlton last week means they could well give us a tough game.
Sold 774 tickets in advance with POTD. Should be about 800-900 making the trip then which isn't bad for a long journey up north.

If Calvin Andrew scores later today I think the universe will probably explode in on itself.

I do remember him scoring one goal against Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup off his arse. That set up a game v Liverpool - so you could argue his backside saved the club.

We will most likely make it 6 losses in a row today, we're absolutely god awful and missing our only good players.

I think whoever loses out of us vs Wimbledon will be looking for a new manager on Monday

Seems like we are very fortunate to still be goal less up at Rochdale, Shea making a number of good saves to keep it goal less at half time. Hopefully we get to grips with it second half as at Wimbledon last week. Still not quite got it away from home at this level yet.

So much for this being the start of a run of easier fixtures against sides lower in the League. Rochdale cut us apart and been as creative as anyone else against us. Shea making a ton of great saves and loads of last ditch defensive blocks. Lost count of how many we cleared off the line or in the six yard box with last ditch diving blocks.

Need to sort out the midfield in the second half as well under the cosh. Can't believe it's 0-0. Stone wall looking pen for both sides on initial viewing too.

Very poor from us again, had chances but couldn’t take them then gifted a goal from a set piece yet again, poor marking for the second and neary conceded a third just before halftime

Where is Firthy these days ?
Even he's to embarrassed to defend the imbecile who put together this spineless bunch of c**nts, not to mention helping get rid of a lot of hard working men and women behind the scenes who with their expertise helped get the club back to where it was before the horrible little c**t came in.

It's easier to just not post than admit you're wrong.

Don't worry though there are still 23 other teams who should look over their shoulder, it can happen to even the best and well run clubs. Nothings as bad as it seems.

Never been in the game since going one down and Charlton should be at least five up by now

I think you'd struggle to beat Park Avenue at present

Disappointed to only draw but extremely happy to not lose to Accrington. Horrible, horrible side. Time wasting from minute one.

Throw back to League 2 last season.

Think that’s the sort of performance that will completely infuriate Jonesy on so many levels. No player can really take anything out of that game as a positive apart from a clean sheet.

Pretty certain Hylton’s red was the correct call, not that it was overly malicious or had much intent. Just mistimed and studs up.

Great win today with so many players out.
No cup hangover - which I fully expected.
We are now firmly mid table.

A very unexpected win at home to Peterborough is welcome. Ainsworth had to change the team around becau se of injuries and it worked out well.:woo:

Well we got a point after being 3-0 down in the second half, that's good but it doesn't cover the issues we have.

Once again we looked so poor defensively, we've conceded 37 goals in 17 games. January cannot come around soon enough so we can bring in some players who can actually defend.

We're in big danger of going down and I think we will.

Pretty much dominated a decent Luton outfit from start to finish, but somehow didn't score. As 0-0's go, it was very entertaining, and even the inconsistent referee didn't spoil it as he seemed to let things go for both teams.
Not sure how a couple of Dale's chances didn't go in...would have been easier to score. I thought we played some lovely stuff but just couldn't score. Hey ho.


Luton nowhere near the worst team to visit us, likewise not the best.

Red card looked correct, but was on the opposite side, so will wait to see on TV.


Great numbers from Luton...well done.

Lost again as per but frustrated given we had more than enough chances to win, a draw at worse would’ve been a fairer result.

Missed 95% of the first half but little bits I did see, I thought we looked ok.

2nd half we looked excellent, real life on the line defending when needed and finally some clinical finishing.

I really wasn't expecting a 3-0 away win though - amazing feeling! Somehow still 20th though.

If we can beat Barnet, we'll have 2 wins in a row before a great chance to beat Scunthorpe at home to make 3 wins in a row. This could really change our season, I hope
