    Sutton decimated by suspensions and injury. No defensive or midfield cover according to their manager. If we don't comfortably take all 3 points tomorrow then all hope will be lost.

    Even decimated they have proven to be better than us so far this season. Routine draw for me.

    1-1. We go in at half time after dominating the first half, playing the best football all season. 47 mins in, they equalise, and we hang on for a draw, including Robinson, then Angol missing guilt edged chances to win it in the final minutes.

    But they will have lads that will want to come in and play for their team...that's the difference.

    The last bit of that Sutton manager interview indicates the difference, Sutton....."put their bodies on the line."

    I am not convinced that our starting 11 are on paper too far off a top 7 team in this league. But there is definitely a severe problem with attitude and commitment, which is either being led by the management/ coaching team or a direct response to frustrations with them.

    Until they get some of what Sutton say they have, and what we will see Harrogate display on Boxing Day we are going nowhere. Even if by magic a bucket load of cash appears in January, and it can attract some decent additions, impact will be shortlived as they will soon get the life sucked out of them if things do not change.

    I hope they do change, starting tomorrow. At least we've now got Andy K!

    I will be going, but a few fans I know have said the same to me. Will comfortably be the lowest actual turn out for a Saturday home game this season I reckon

    No excuses whatsoever today. A win is an absolute must against a team struggling to put out a full bench. Anything but that win and questions must be asked of the managers future. I'll take a 1-0 but I expect a 3-0 victory

    Frankly l think a dull, dour 0-0 is probably what we will get. A game which will be slow, ponderous, with neither keeper being fully stretched. The crowd will be 14,623…….but……but…..but……only 7,937 actually at the game. :pensive:

    We're winning today.

    Better do.. or the players and manager better run off the pitch! I feel it could get very interesting today.

    Feels like a pivotal game for Adams. Failure to beat (and comfortably beat) a depleted Sutton side at home and he'll lose what little credibility he still has. Even his most ardent supporters would have to ask serious questions.

    So will it be 0-0, 1-1 or 2-2. Could we expect a 3-3?

    It's going to be a draw isn't it.
