At least it's not Wellens getting it wrong.... when Brown first appeared on the scene, I raised doubts about him due to calling Div 4, Div 2, repeatedly, because it made him sound like SRK.
Had today been Brown's game it would have been huge, as he owned the historic lack of winning a Div 4 home game record.
Now though, it's of less importance, insofar as Wellens will get a couple of games grace, to see if he can get us scoring a few goals, without sacrificing the not so bad defending.
A pools punter would probably stick this down as a draw.
What's your prediction Reg?

we will lose 1.2 and go on to be relegated on the last game of the season resulting in a huge crowd disturbance caused by all those naughty thugs that voted to leave the EU

You never know... but you can get a feel for things based on circumstances, which is why for this game I've no idea. Firstly we don't know the injury situation.... last Sat we were without at least 5, who a gaffer may wish to pick. Some on here are implying these are tactical injuries..... lads who don't fancy it. Personally I have my doubts, but this is STFC so could be possible. Secondly, how will the players react to Wellens and Hunt coming in.... Matty Taylor obviously has a key role to play in this... was he considered for the job? Did he want the job? Wellens is already saying, after sitting down with Hunt, who remember is Power's boy, and Matty, that he needs an experienced head in to help. Good luck with that Rich.... perhaps you should have said no to Hunt. Possibly, though he's trying to force Power's hand into his pocket. Thirdly, how will the Sheridan/Wellens good buddy/mentor relationship impact on the game....they'll obviously know each others way of approaching the game? Fourthly... will all of this change fuck with heads of the players.... I wouldn't have this season's struggles down to lack of effort, but rather lack of ability..... but I could be wrong, maybe Wellens will have a magic wand, and Keshi will suddenly go on a scoring run, Jermaine, after getting in the right positions, will stop miskicking then falling over. Perhaps Kyle will get an assist and Martin Smith go to the top of pass completion stats. And speaking of squad head fucks... I'm assuming that LMc will be back in today.

Just have a fucking guess Reg. I'm going with 2-0 to us. There you go...easy...

1-1 can't see how bellends can change our goal drought. Own goal for the towns finish. I listened to the managers interview on wilts radio, he said his time at Oldham was blighted by loan players returning to their club with only youths to replace them. He may get a deja vu in January.

for the last few home league games it seems like we haven't scored first and found no way to get through resorting to desperate passing and shooting. if we can get that early goal and settle down quick it will make all the difference hence why I went for the 2-0. be a lovely feeling to hold out a lead with no drama!

We haven't got the opener in any league game at the CG this season.... hence the historic lack of win record for Div 4. Had Brown still been with us, then he'd have needed to turn that around starting today. Wellens will get a couple of games to sort this, but if the trend continues then we're in all sorts of trouble... you don't win too many games from behind.

thought as much from the games id been to, didnt know it was the whole season. too many imponderables to see whether we would have been in all sorts of trouble though you can't just double the first half results and say its going to happen in the 2nd half.
