That's fine as long as they don't press us and we don't need to go direct at all. Not sure McKirdy is going to win anything in the air or be able to hold the ball up if we're under pressure at the back and need to go long and need it to stick to bring others into play

Vale fans said they kept the ball on the floor and ran through them and writ 2 up. A couple of dodgy ref decisions and a succession of balls into the box did for them in the end - 4-3.

McKirdy isn't a lone striker IMO. Simpson is the only person at the club that could realistically play that role (hence why he has to date).

Swindon to suffer a single goal defeat in front of 3,945 fans with 615 (officially) Town fans there.

Pre match not the best spot to watch the worker ants scurrying about their business from The Willow Walk.

So, a big ticket event tonight. Literally.
An all dayer in London.
A new ground.
The battle for L2 survival going much better than expected.
What's not to like.

One previous meeting with Sutton. A 2nd round FA Cup tie in 1981.
Wasn't part of the sub 3,000 crowd that Tuesday night for the last gasp 2-1 win.
Must have been postponed on the Saturday. Can't remember.
The first round game v Taunton shows as an away game in the record books, but no travelling involved that day, back when giving up home advantage was fairly common.

A physical test tonight.
Simpson should relish it. The back 3 have the attributes to cope and the midfield need to move the ball around quickly.
Evening games seem to have a higher tempo for some reason, which should suit us.
Anyway, no reason why it shouldn't be a glorious victory including a bullet header by Simpson from a pinpoint Iandolo cross.

Sutton United are best remembered for the cup giant killing of Coventry in the late 80's and for Piegate a few years back with the very portly backup keeper filling his face in a televised tie & copping a fine and a ban from the FA for a breach of betting regs.
To finish, the not too difficult quiz question is, who were the 3 future Town stars who were in that vanquished Coventry side?

Kilcline & Burrows. Yep.

The third one only made 2 appearances unfortunately as he might have gone on to be very good us.
