    My god we look a weaker team and squad than last season.

    Mid table squad at best.

    What a strange night to have them. I presume that's not the reason he isn't playing though!!

    Yeh, there is no way he misses tonights game for that. He was carrying a knock so probably been excused.

    Good chance for Smith tonight to get out of Cook's shadow and get a goal or two being the main man.

    Hope he does well.

    To be fair it may be a blessing cook being out. It’s been like playing with 10 men the last few weeks. I seriously rate cook but to be brutal he is seriously off the boil. That said, the team selection tonight is terrible. Surely there is room in that line up for pointon.

    He is playing which surprised me due to the time he was seen still.

    Not fit enough to do 2 games a week. Like Derbyshire, total waste of money.

    No he didn’t. I’ve just listened back to the interview and Hughes actually said, “Hopefully he will be OK, he may have to miss Tuesday”.
