An interesting little snippet; this season, we've won all 4 of our home games and drawn all 3 of our away games. Does look to have draw written all over it this one, however Rovers have surpassed my expectations plenty of times already this season - let's hope they can nab all 3 points!

Would go with the above; ACD and Gueye to start - think we'll need the pace of ACD, and Gueye's height and strength will come in handy. Cantwell of course deserves a start after the other day, would move Dolan to the left for this. The rest pick themselves! Gotta feeling this one could be a banana skin tbh, though i've thought this with some of our previous games too! Who knows, hopefully another win 🤞

Can't say I have the most faith after yesterday's performance, we looked really bad going forward. Hope we can see Cozier-Duberry from the start, he looks lively... Hedges is just too hesitant and predictable at times.

Agreed! Ohashi converts chances to goals, whereas Gueye does tend to miss a few. Can see us needing to defending a 1 goal lead, bringing Gueye on after 60 minutes to be an absolute nuisance would be brilliant if this does turn out to be the case - he'll frustrate and give their tiring defenders something to think about.

Would like to see us line up like this; Pears should keep his spot for now, wouldn't chuck Toth in for this particular game. Back 4 got a clean sheet, and Tronstad and Travis are the first names on the sheet - so all keep their spots. Cantwell's flair could be the difference in a game like this, i'd move Dolan to the left to accommodate him in his favoured #10 role - though they could even switch at some point, since Cantwell can play on the left too. Cozier-Duberry looked lively when he came on, think there's an absolute player in there and would like to see him unleashed on the Nobbers. Ohashi has to keep his spot after a brace, his confidence will be sky high. Never confident of a win over Preston, they get very lucky against us it seems - can't see us losing though!

Bristol City are a bit of a bogey team for us aren't they, not too confident here! Possible loss, but more than likely a draw i'd say. If we do manage to get a win, however, it'd most certainly be a sign that things are really starting to look up.

Would take him here in a heartbeat.

Hope not, poor kid is only 21… 🙏

Really hope we get one of those unreported, surprise signings that nobody has heard of before. Was really nice finding out that we signed Telalovic then rapidly researching who he is etc. I mean, he was dog shit, but still...

It probably was - it'll be big Swaggott trying to move the goalposts.

Agreed. Would happily take a striker on loan... Then a permanent left-wing signing.

Godo will probably sign an extension at Fulham before joining us on loan. Some Clubs actually have smart people running the show.

I know right, not like them is it bud!

Smelliott said Dembele was £800k - and yes, Hedges did well in Scotland.

It's actually a piss-take, we've missed out on some decent wingers for less that a million too... Topi Keskinen and Siriki Dembele for example.

Fair enough! Whatever the case, I hope they get in very big trouble somehow.

The FFP charges are gonna hit like crack.

Siggy and Dolan's contracts both expire at the end of the season. If we get a left-winger on loan, they'll also be gone at the end of the season - leaving us with no left-wingers. If they have a brain between them, they need to dig deep and buy a fucking left-winger.

There’s a lot of incorrectness right there my guy…

We've already had 2 years to solve the problem... who was the last pacey winger we had? Khadra? Who left after his loan and his pace was never replaced. Now is the time to strike, with the money we've brought in - the longer we leave it, the more the money disappears.

Wouldn't solve our problem this time next year would it... especially when Siggy's contract expires too.

So... are we just loaning the Brighton lad then? We need a permanent on the left wing.

Luke Cundle on loan as the CM? Wouldn't say no personally.

Cantwell could well become the O'Brien/McGuire of this year. Expect there'll be the classic radio silence from the owners, due to the financials of the deal... Will give it until 3pm before we hear of plans to hijack the deal from the likes of Burnley, Middlesbrough, Luton etc.

Las Palmas have put an offer in for Cantwell? If true, we can put a line through that one.
