Genuine dread for this one. will We even manage a shot on goal? I just hope we can get back to the basics of our game that worked so well rather than the stuttering sideways and backwards one it seems to have become. A point will be great fully received today. UTI.

Not looking forward to this at all, yet six weeks ago it was a fantastic prospect.

Guess we may have to treat it like a cup game that we are not expected to win and divide it into 15 minute sections. Concentrate hard, get through each section without conceding and hit them on the break, preferably as late as possible.

Dreading us conceding early and imploding. But it’s a funny old game... UTI
