    They seem to be wobbling a bit at the top with 3 draws, 2 losses in the last 5 so could be a good time as any to play them. They've also conceded 1st in their last 6 games.
    Good news with Walker returning to contention.
    Personally I think it will be the same team as started against Swindon with Walker coming onto the bench in place of Threlkeld or Daly.

    But we always let teams end their own poor form :)

    Cannot see anything other than heavy defeat tomorrow I'm afraid leading to RcBantam's first shout of Hughes out

    They have a very strong attack while we have a weak defence so work it out

    We seem to get the better of FGR when we play them.

    Who knows, we might just spring a surprise.

    This. It wouldn't surprise me if we played well with the ball, caused them problems and even grabbed a goal or two. But our defence will see us leave with nothing.

    I've never been impressed when they've played us, even this season with them top of the table, awful awful cheats.

    However, our defence at the moment is awful and I can definitely see them getting more than 1 goal.

    We'll have chances to win the game it's just praying to god we are clinical for once.

    We are having this lot, then going on an unbeaten streak to the end of the season.

    After 5 straight defeats going to the runaway leaders of the division can only mean one thing.

    I’ve watched City long enough to know we will go there and win!

    The start of our improvement was evident last week despite the kick in the teeth at the end.

    I’m backing them to win. Hope this doesn’t age badly.

    Talk of Walker being available but I'd think that's for a place on the bench, would Sparkie give Pereira a start if he goes 4-4-2 again.
