    I’ve just asked my boss if I can finish at 4 today,so I can be a proper fan and go to Walsall tonight.

    My boss told me to get back to work and stop being bleeding stupid.

    At least I made “the effort”.

    Oh well,ifollow it is then.

    That would be my preferred formation and selection but I can understand why he might want to stick with the diamond and the experienced lads in midfield, especially with it being an away fixture.

    Yes. 3 nil and we remain behind Stevenage as they would have scored one goal more

    From reading some of their previous match reports and fan comments they seem to set up quite defensively. I'm not saying we should be all out attack but starting on the front foot could get us the important first goal.

    Just seen this, think it was Simon W that's recommended for IT issues ;)

    I think I read that despite this they have only lost 4 since November. Seems draws are their forte.

    Barrow sound like they did to Walsall what they did with us. Early ish goal and then Walsall couldn't break them down.

    First goal is crucial tonight,if they go 1-0 up they will shut up shop and pick us off on the break.

    Looks like it we'll have 1goal more than Stevenage, they will be plus 16 we'll be plus 17.

    It's crazy.

    Honestly, things haven't been going that bad, have they? Okay it's disappointing to have failed to challenge for promotion and draws are a drag, but hopefully they're timing this perfectly for us.

    It's such an impatient sport.

    Let's pile on the misery tonight and register another win!

    The stats for the game at VP in September are interesting.
    I know they were a decent team but I can’t remember them having so many shots. E7923B1D-25CA-49FE-841C-2D5EDE0AE2F6.jpeg

    Their 2 starting centre halves Daniels and Monthe are both big units so Cook will definitely know he’s been in a game.

    Hopefully they will keep so much eye on him we will let the other 9 do the business?

    Costello tonight for me. Same starting 11 will do and then bring on the technical ones at the last 1/3.

    Walsall's top scorer this season is Danny Johnson. He scored 14 goals for them until he returned to Mansfield in the middle of January.
    Since he left, they have played nine games, failed to score in six of them, scored one in two of them.

    Did your boss have clear and obvious justification for denying your request of flexible working?
    If not, I’d challenge it

    Its gonna be a tough one this. They rarely concede and Flynn sides have frustrated us in the past.

    Given Osadebe had a bust up with their fans, imagine if he came off the bench to bang in a later winner!

    I think Osadebe will start tonight. He'll be up for proving a point.
