Mostly due to top scorer Mellon being suspended as he has scored 63% of all their goal so far.

Yup, a fair few mentions of Mellon. They have suggested that their best chances might come from hitting us on the break, which plenty of our fans have echoed.

Yeah can see that happening. Something we need to be wary of today.

Whereabouts are you?

ATM at mum and dad's place near Mojacar, not a million miles from you but when talking about the bar, still in Val Thorens, 2300 meters.

Not sure if it's an Official Guiness Pub, but he highest irish pub could well be The Irish Pub in Namche Bazaar in Nepal.  Paddy’s Irish Pub in Cusco, Peru claims to be the highest Irish-owned pub in the world, at 11,156 feet/ 3,400 meters.

Another irrelevant fact...

You have to be selling a certain amount to be considered 'Official' I believe, I'd always said there will be somewhere selling Guinness much higher than we are, just not as much as us.  Guinness is a bother at altitude, we have to waste so much of it due to the change in pressure, still tastes good though, which is the main thing.

I would much prefer they at least tried to look like the home side. We did not have an answer to the Doncaster low block, even with the extra man. Could be a frustrating one today.

Unchanged again, only change is Kinsella back on the bench for Ben Ward.

Is it me or does it feel like we’re way more than just 7 games into the season.

Yes but I suppose we are 9 games in with the cup games, if the opening day fixture had gone ahead it would be 10 games in.

Still hard to believe sometimes we’re wondering if we can get 3 points off Morecambe!

Depressing.

TBH they were relegated last season from L1 and they are unbeaten at home so far.

He also said he may just wait until January to add to the squad if he has to.

Quite impressed we can leave a senior player off the matchday squad at the moment.
