    Just thrown a tenner their way. Hope everybody chips in with their bit. 100 £1 donations is still £100. 100 tenners is even better 🙂

    Forsyth now joins Ryan Nyambe and Jake Rooney in the group of players unlikely to feature again this season

    I am just going from this, that he might risk Fozzy on the bench vs Wycombe knowing Bradley is then back after that...

    Don't know if this is what you meant... when PP was built, foundations were put in to allow another ring on the East Stand and maybe the North as well IIRC. The extra seating would increase capacity to 44K but he only planned to do the extension after we'd had at least one relegationless season in the PL.

    Physical approach to the game they have. However, if one of ours looks at one of theirs too hard, they will fall over, grab hold of a body part and roll around in agony. Free kicks and throws are generally taken very slowly to run the clock down and 15 yards forwards of where they should be taken. They aren't a footballing side so they rely on a stop/start strategy to ensure the opposition, in this case us, don't get the chance to build any momentum.
    Historically, we have had difficulty combatting this type of football. I expect similar next Wednesday.
    Matters might get complicated by whatever their result against Posh in the EFL Trophy final on Sunday is. They win, will they be lifted by it or still drunk on their success. Would defeat deflate them or spur them on? Extra time would be helpful to us, whatever the result at Wembley.
    We'll need patience and self control but we ought to win, putting us a step closer to promotion. Posh are in Cup action this weekend, Bolton go to Bristol Rovers where we hope Coldplay does some damage to help us and Barnsley visit Charlton  who have drawn their last 3 and I wouldn't refuse them a 4th on the bounce.

    What I have noticed of late is that we, collectively, generally and at goalkeeper especially, we have started to perform shithousery of our own. I've lost count of the number of time JW has gone down when we've been under the cosh somewhat.
    You're right, it's one of those that's not won until after the rotund bint's encore...

    Spot on Madamster. I've joked about the game, but it's one that makes me nervous. That said, we've improved a lot in how we deal with shithouses and I expect us to win the game. If we do, we're almost over the line IMO.

    Their 1st? Might have been just offside but too close to call and the ref's assistant got it right in giving the benefit of any doubt to the attacking side. Handball for the 2nd by Raggett, definitely, although Collo's half hearted "challenge" didn't help. The ref taking account of the slippery pitch saved JW early doors and their player (Saydee?) when he took Sibs out 5 hours late. Their player was looking for the penalty, imo, he appeared to be going down of his own volition as soon as he felt contact. The ref didn't buy it. I have to admit I thought it was one and then, from the front on replay understood why it wasn't given. Another day, another ref and it, and the 2 red cards, would have been given. Swings and roundabouts. They had the lion's share of possession, we had more shots, same amount on target. The fox may have cost us a 3rd as we had numeric advantage and it was our speed merchants up there. Stopping play was the right decision imo. All in all, I view a draw as the right result.
