    It’s mostly down the East coastline.

    We are forecast to get it in N, Norfolk .

    Midlands need not worry?

    This won't be easy

    Two of the three teams who've conceded less than 30 league goals.

    Walsall, are still the best team I've seen this season. And before lots of you shout Northampton, we forgot we were meant to turn up for the last hour of that game.

    Won't be easy but they have a lot of possession in matches but don't do much with it.
    The loss of their top scorer has been huge for them .

    Was it Walsall that had 3/4 big units in the defence.
    I know one of them is Monthe who is a proper unit but I’m sure they were all big lads.

    Go on their forum….not good reading for their fans?

    I’m sure Osadebe will get a warm welcome too?

    Lewis

    Halliday Platt Stubbs Ridehalgh

    East Clayton Gilliead

    Banks

    Cook Costelloe

    That would be my starting 11, a couple of fresh legs in from the start.

    I see that they’ve only lost 1 more game than us this season.
    They draw too many.
    Actually drawn 6 out of the last 7 games.

    A few quid on a draw at 2/1 looks favourite.
    With Cook scoring for us obviously,to get me my winning bet on him being top scorer.

    Draw this and beat Newport would be a decent return.

    I think we get a draw here. Walsall are draw specialists it seems and we have played a lot of games in a short period recently. I think we can go to Newport and beat them and we should be beating Hartlepool at home. 7pts from the next 3 games would be very nice indeed,

    Carlisle, Crewe and Grimsby provide much tougher opposition.

    They don't look to be doing that bad, actually, but I can see why they'd be frustrated.

    A run of draws translates as the end of the world for fans, which is obviously silly.

    Think this will be a very tough game.

    Tuesday night at Walsall.

    It's just far enough to make it impossible for anyone working a 9-5.

    Can't really be disappointed, all things considered, especially financial situations for a lot of people. It's already impressive so many fans are making so many trips.

    Sorry John, can't agree.
    We spout the big club, big support and love battering social media with the fact we pull 20k at home and try and beat away bigger clubs taking the mick out of cheap tickets, then revert back to what we are within days.
    Derby pull 20k plus every match, Ipswich too.
    Bolton slightly less.
    None of these clubs would take sub 1000 to an away match 2 hours away.

    But would you try to arrange your working day to finish day 4pm?
    Or is that too much effort for anymore than 600 fans.
