Might as well get started on the thread. Not had privy to any squad updates so a bit of a guess on the starting 11. Presume Maguire was rested on Tuesday and will start today. Just hope he’s got his head on as I’m sure they’ll be winding him up from the start. McGrandles back in the centre and touch wood Poole back. Looking forward to seeing how the Marquis/Hopper partnership is developing. The sun is shining, and another full house. What’s not to like. UTI 👊💥👏
 
Jermaine Defoe among there ranks 20 England goals in 57 appearances according to Wiki and scored in 17 different premier league seasons. Not very often we come up against players with those kind of stats.

Hopefully get a second successive 10k + gate.

How times have changed from six years ago.
 
Having just watched their manager's pre-match press conference it was as if he was raising money for charity every time he used the word "massive" to describe his club.
 
Anyone who ueses the No 2 bus to get home after the game please check stagecoach as a few buses are cancelled e.g. 16:45, 17:45 etc
 
Can't drop any places today ,can only have the gap reduced to 5 points with a loss.

A win though could potentially move us up a couple of places and release the pressure valve even further.

Maguire was omitted at Rotherham because he was one booking away from a two-match ban. Interestingly, we played very well without him.
 
The Bank is going to be bouncing today, let's lift the squad (they've made it clear how much they appreciate it!) and send the Mackems home with their tails between their legs. They could do with being taken down a peg or two...
 
I saw Alex Neil make his playing debut for Airdrie, I remember thinking he looked the flimsiest, most lightweight footballer I had ever seen. I thought we wouldn't see him again but he has carved out a good career.
