    Well that is 3 (4%) of the Poll, the ‘Ultra’ pessimists totally wrong. Great victory yesterday.

    The opposite end of the spectrum will be happy. Amazingly brave (or foolhardy) to think we can win all five, but respect to the Optimists.

    Wonder what the odds would have been based on the options at the start of the thread. Not a betting man myself, but still interesting.

    Will admit, wasn’t expecting that win without vernam and cooke. But swindon have the 3rd worse home record in the league so far only winning once from 7.

    FGR however havent lost an away game all season. Won 5 drew 2. Real test on Saturday for Derek.

    If anyone wants some optimism to cling onto for Saturday, Forest Green play 3 CBs and two of them have been injured in the last week. Dan Sweeney is out for 3 weeks with a knee injury. On Saturday, their best defender of the year so far Jordan Moore-Taylor went off with a pulled quad it seemed like according to their local paper, scanning this week but highly likely he wont be fit for Saturday. Two lads who came in haven't played much this season.

    They play a 3412, with the wing backs playing more like wingers from looking at their highlights. Seems the CBs need some pace as they often get pulled out wide, with the 2 sitting mids dropping very deep. Hard to break down side, needs width to pull them out of shape. Two big lads up top too and both on form, both Matt and Stevens have 7 in 14 with Matt also adding 6 assists.

    We want names, I'm sure they will have a letter from their mum why they haven't posted with regards the game and result at strongly fancied Swindon :sob::sob:.

    They look a good around team the keep their share of clean sheets but can also score goals its going to be a challenge but not one we should be frightened of.

    No letter from me. I was sat in a pub garden in Seahouses, enjoying many pints of Farne Island Bitter. Bit steep in price at a tad under £5 but worth it. Northumberland Coastal walk completed and ready to rock.
