Just watched an interview with their manager after last night game.
He was talking, amongst other things, about the development and performance of 2 of his loan players from Villa and Man City respectively.
Shows the level they have in their ranks and we are definitely facing a different animal completely on Monday.
I will take a draw all bloody day long from this one but I suppose with this fantastic team of ours, anything is possible.
Going for a 1-1 draw.
Well, we’ve had loan players from big clubs in the past… Alex Davey from Chelsea, Chukwuemeka from Villa, Teddy Jenks from the Tesco Bags etc. :-) I take your point though - I would also be happy with a point but there is no reason why we should be afraid of any team so am hoping for all three. :-)
On a good day we can beat any team in this division. On a bad one, we are capable of losing to them all as well. I catch myself wondering where we might be were it not for those unsettling weeks when Gillingham were sniffing around Scott Lindsey.
Lindsey has a selection issue for Monday. Both Wright and Maguire are on 9 bookings. If they are booked on Monday they will serve a two match ban (no ban applies for 10 bookings after 37th game).
My guess is he will risk playing at least one of them unless both Conroy and Ransom fit and play them with Mukena. Alternatively he could decide to play Williams, Tsaroulla or Gordon in back three. Don't know how far Conroy is from fitness, but we don't want to risk both Wright and Maguire missing for two games and Conroy still injured (hopefully Ransom went off at half time for a tactical change rather than an injury).

We've also got Johnson, Omole and the on loan guy who are CBs. Or Williams can play there. Shouldn't be a problem. I'm guessing SL won't play any of the first three I mentioned though.
Spanner in works? St Kitts and Nevis v San Marino friendlies on 20th and 24th and Jay Williams in SK&N squad? Not entirely sure how genuine or where being played! "Source" is @futlegionnaires on twatter

I think if we can get the following results today there will be less pressure on us to get a result against Stockport on Monday.
MKDONS to Draw with Crewe Grimsby to Beat Gills Bradford to Draw with Mansfield Harrogate to Beat Barrow Newport to Beat Wimbledon Colchester to Beat Walsall
We’ve just dropped one place to 10th following the Gills drawing.
Not bad day for us really. Could drop another place, if Morecambe win tomorrow, but regain a place if we at least draw on Monday. At least two games in hand on all our rivals after tomorrow.
Watched the first 10 minutes of the Brighton ladies game and the pitch looked to be in very good condition. Does anyone know what condition it was in at the end of the game?
Looked ok at the end of the game- with the sun out and no more rain expected the pitch should be in perfect condition once CTC have done their magic on it - really looking forward to the game tomorrow night- hope we get a good attendance and another good atmosphere- 3 points would be a brilliant night -
