We can, yeah, but as it stands there is no space in the squad so either we need to sign players Under 21 or remove someone or two from the current EFL squad (and once the window closes that's it for them unless we have another Jones-type situation and we get special agreement to replace someone)

I believe that once the January window opens squad lists are defunct until the window closes again and a new squad list is submitted at the start of February - therefore in theory we can sign who he want

Think that?s right- so presumably Palmer say could play in the league for us in January if he was fit?

Frightening prospect but yes

Big game tomorrow. Really looking forward tonight. A win would set up the Xmas period perfectly. Tough opponents but I feel confident

*to it

Very tough. They are quick and strong. This season could be the reawakening of the old Wimbledon. If we win I think it will cement our play off place this season.

[Westbars Spireite]

I'd not be unhappy with a point tomorrow.

Horton is fit. I?d rather him at fullback, Grimes and Araujo at CB and Naylor in CM.

I was about to type the same thing

Clever interview from Cook, give the opposition the impression we are on our knees with injury so hopefully they attack us a bit more thinking we are vulnerable and then punish them

[gordon_brittas]

The lad they signed from Solihull who chose them over us will be a threat from set pieces. Like someone said earlier, win for town would be lovely but not losing given the injury situation would be fine.

Confirmation of that would be appreciated

[sophocles]

Well that's a relief! Gormless Britass throwing in the towel already assures us of a solid victory. I'll go for 3-1.

[Search & Destroy]

They look a very good side, recent record is impressive

A point would be decent here

[Chesterfield247]

1-1 and a 90+5 equalizer for them.

He actually hasn't this time.

i like the outlook our management team have put out going into this christmas period, whilst recognising our injury situation they have stated that it is focussing for the group that is available and sometimes that turn in your favour, because it's a mentality of "right it's up to us because there isn't anyone else", what we really need to avoid are any silly cards yellow, doubles and certainly reds, our front four including the bench options can win us any game this season, need good disciplaine behind them.

[The Earl of Chesterfield]

It'd be typical Tairn to go out and give these a good ding-dong of Xmas bells, today.

Get embarrassed by strugglers yet pull summat out the bag against form sides?

Forty-plus years in a sentence.

Would've been happy to be where we are now last August, so no complaints as long as the performance is there...

I?d agree

Araujo at LB will be an bit of an unknown and Grimes and Naylor CB would be defined as ?interesting? to say the least

Attack is the best form of defence I guess

[Westbars Spireite]

We?ll find out soon enough but my preference would be Horton at LB, Grimes and Araujo at the back with Naylor and Mandeville as the two or however he sets it up. I?ll be wrong on several counts through I?m sure!

[Westbars Spireite]

As I expected. Two changes. Naylor at CB. Araujo LB.

[Burgerman]

Winning side right there with a strong bench.

Confident we will win this.

Wish I shared your optimism. I can't see anything but a win for them. Obviously, I hope I'm wrong....
