So the big questions...
Balcombe or Belshaw?
Win,loss,draw?
Will we avoid a sending off?
Will the big decsions go our way?
Who's fault will it be should we lose?
Oh.... and guess the crowd 😏

I think Ellery is now our number 1,i think he's a better GK than James.
Obviously this is tough but I think we can give em a good game.
I hope Bogarde plays.I think with Ward they can link defence,middle and attack.
In the scenario we supply our forwards,we can beat any 3rd tier fc.

Huddersfield have brought back Neil Warnock to save them from the drop at the age of 74. Now that's a rot-stopper who doesn't need a dugout to lean on. I'm not sure Barton is up for a scrap when the chips are down so he desperately needs a result tonight or his blind faith support may soon start to dwindle. Four league defeats on the trot after spitting out the pineapple pizza cup in favour of a promotion push has backfired on him and he needs to grind out at least a draw tonight to turn it around. We're relatively safe at the moment, but we all know how quickly a gap can close as Easter approaches. I predict 0-5, 1-1 or 3-3 :-)

We’re mid table so should be able to give them a competitive game. A draw would be very welcome! But then I’ve always been optimistic.
UTG!

Bookies have it (generally best odds available): Rovers win 5-1 Draw 3-1 Ipswich win 4-7 It has the feel of a pivotal game. A draw, or an against the odds win steadies the ship. A 5th straight league defeat and even Bas might begin to lose a bit of faith 😃.

There is no accounting for "blind faith"🙂 Agreed but we do seem to have a habit of doing better against the better teams. After the improved game v a very poor Lincoln, i can see us drawing this one. It also would not surprise me, not one bit, if we pulled the proverbial rabbit out of the hat and won. Here is hoping that we do. Just please get us to safety.

Well they have drawn five of their last seven games so a draw is a definite possibility UTG Well, many are speaking as if Ipswich are world beaters and we have no chance. They are League 1, no better, no worse. Some could say given their players and what they’ve spent they are underachieving. They have a young coach from Man U yet everyone is raving about them. Not sure why. They draw more than most, have spent loads of money yet are still outside the top two and, imo, likely to stay outside those places. Not as good as the current top2. We’ve given Plymouth and Sheffield W good games. We need to stop talking down about ourselves and plan to get a good performance and result. I know we’ve had injuries, players missing and our squad probably not as good as other squads but I hope we stop talking ourselves into a relegation fight. COYB! UTG!

I’d be happy with a point, hope for all 3 but predict a grim 3-0 defeat.
Bas is high on the happy drugs if he thinks Balcombe is a better keeper than Belly. He might be one day but not today based on what I have seen of him so far

Is Belshaw still injured? He's not even on the bench.

Hoping for at least a point tonight to raise confidence for the Burton match,hopefully the new players are getting used to the team.

We will probably win tonight as we seem to play better against teams above us.
My forecast is a very bold 2-1 home win in front of 8,199 crowd.

Good feet from Sinclair, but goes to ground a bit too easy for me
