Well they beat us last week and now have home advantage, so that suggests a home win.... however football isn't always sensible maybe we can spring a surprise. 

So had you taken into account both their home games have been draws 0-0 & 1-1 and that the 0-1 home defeat was a game we should have had wrapped up by half time and their chances on goal were very limited?

However football isn’t always sensible is a correct observation, and maybe we can spring a surprise is a bit like me saying if my Aunty had balls she’d be my uncle.

Do you have much trouble deciding which drink to have when you go to the pub?

I feel there are three points heading back to Wiltshire. I am also going to stick my neck out and suggest a clean sheet.

I think that was quite predictable from Reg to be fair Legends.

I guess the difference is that, when ordering a beer, you can’t live in constant fear of being ‘wrong’.

Unless you choose Guinness, of course 😉

Predicting football outcomes isn’t quite so straightforward. So, if you can’t stand the thought of being wrong, frequently dropping lightly worded hints that the team will probably fail - but might succeed - is the safest bet.

I'm unusually optimistic, which means nothing of course.

Might be just me, but I'm fairly sure you've made this point before. If you're going to make your entire forum identity reliant on criticising someone else's repetitive behaviour...

I agree, its funny how we can have 2 players suspended but the side doesn't over all look any weaker.

I think he ran himself ragged on Tuesday so could possibly do with the rest.

Quite happy with that team,  hoping for a 2-0 victory but will settle for any score -  As long as we win.  Think we'll be too strong for that bunch of carrott crunchers,  hopefully we'll finish with 11 men on the field.
