Be a great effort for a Tuesday fixture

Should be a comfortable victory tonight and another good opportunity for a clean sheet. These don't score.

They don't concede many either (7 goals in 9 games)

I would like to think we could but realistically with there being another home game on Saturday, people working, weather etc I think it will probably knock a few hundred off what we have been seeing recently. We will be down on the walk ups so I reckon there will be around 6,500. Hope I'm wrong though and we'll see over 7,000 there again. Whatever it is it's still great support.

With another Home game this Saturday anything over 6,500 Town Fans tonight is a good show.

These are better away from home than at home with solid wins at Rochdale and Oldham. Seen comments that suggest they really struggle against teams who sit back but are decent against teams who try and play. Could be a lively game.

They don't concede either though. Furthermore, their last 3 away games saw a 1-1 draw at unbeaten Solihull and wins at Rochdale and Oldham.
I hope the management and players don't see it being a comfortable win.

Nearer 6k than 7k I suspect. Still a great turnout though.

Tonight and Saturday have the potential to be a rerun of the damaging double defeat to Daggers and Maidenhead last year. I am confident Cook et al will instill this into the players and we get two professional performances against sides who probably won’t come here and park the bus like Oldham did

These will park the bus tonight. We tend to struggle a bit against teams like this so will likely need to be patient and wait for late goals. Either that or score early and force them to come out and play.

1-0 town. COYB.

They've got E1 for now, with 48 seats still available.

Kop was sold out but looks like they released all bar the front row now, and seats available in most other sections of the ground.

I'd expect a late 6k attendance, which is still fantastic for a Tuesday night in September.

I'll go for the former, as when teams come and have a go at us, we concede goals!

We shouldn't roll up and expect to turn these over. I can see it being a frustrating night.
I think probably the team will be the same as last match with Berry doing his super sub roll and Quiggs being used tonight part way through - if we are 0-0 / 1-0 up.
These were shocking when I watched them at Saltergate MK2 other season - although they nicked a 1 nil they were dreadful and bear in mind they have lost 2 decent players in Warburton and Debrah.
Quite looking forward tonight

Horrible weather, mean away defence….but can’t wait!

Would be delighted with 7 points from next 3 games tbh.

Love a Tuesday game.

The pitch will be wet but it's forecast to be dry overhead during the game. There will be some very strong gusts of wind and feeling fairly mild for most of the evening.

All part of the service.
