I really hope Malley, Charman, Campbell, Taylor & Keohane are fit soon. The starting XI is decent, but that bench is depressingly uninspiring... Brierley the only one on there that could (in my opinion) come on and change the game. Our first eleven will be known by opposition managers well in advance, & they probably know about the same subs we will be making during games too.

Personally, I’ve no issues with that starting XI. For 45 minutes on Saturday they did everything right bar score. Do that in this game and who knows what the outcome will be.

Wonders will never cease!

They were originally scheduled to broadcast the Wigan game, but it's been postponed.

Just arrived. Can’t complain with the selection but think if anyone will have a way of stopping us play it’ll be an Evans managed team. If we can play for the 90 like we did for the first half then I’ll be delighted, will be really worried if we see a repeat of the second half though.

That's my worry. Evans will see the team sheet see the videos from Saturday and know what instructions to give his team to nullify our threats. Perhaps Robbie has given our chaps some additional instructions of his own which will prove he has some tactical nous.

The free kick we just defended reminded me of something Stockdale said at the forum... we do zonal marking with everybody back so that tactically we have people in the right places to get the second ball. I don't think we've managed that once this season.

I'm also debating switching our commentary off and going with BBCRM alongside the video feed. I can't cope with hearing such insightful comments as 'Piergiani, a good player despite being in a team that was relegated from Oldham'.

An Oldham team that took 4 points off us last season.

Our back line are very deep. We also don't seem to want the ball at the moment.

12 mins in and I don't think we've strung two passes together

Possession with progression.

Agreed. This is atrocious so far. Don't think any of them have broken into a sprint. Our game is at walking pace

Possession with progression.

We're there to spoil and frustrate aren't we. Slowing the game down every time it goes out of play. Staying very deep with a back 5 and 2 defensive midfielders.

Zero quality so far. Giving away too many set pieces. Continuously giving the ball back to them. Only positive is so far we've defended no nonsense to limit them to the odd half chance.

If the idea is to counter attack those outlets need to be doing better.

Corner. Zonal marking. Free header. Goal.

I think we're in 45 minutes to save his job territory for Stockdale here.
