Should be an easy win this. Anything less than a big asian handicap (im not talking about gok wan) would be unacceptable. We really need to be coming away from here with a scoreline that demonstrates the superior difference in finances and investment. Somewhere between 3 and 5 nil will do.

Oh, it will certainly be between 3 and 5-0 to them

Players need to turn up. That performance last time at their place was a shambles. 1-0 flattered us

We can't play our normal game on that small pitch. It needs to be really wide to work properly so I've got no expectations that we'll do well next weekend. Never seen us play well there but we do in the reverse fixture.
Hopefully the cattle herding is less severe this season. 45 mins to get in the turnstile was stupid last year.

Yup, our style only works in the “easy games”.

As soon as a team is more up for it (usually when they’re at home) or if its a really big game (Mansfield, Crawley at home) then our slow build up just gets battered. We can’t deal with teams have that extra drive to press.

It’s a lot easier at home when there is far less of an atmosphere driving the opposition on.

I don’t know where the idea it’s a small pitch comes from. The playing area at Plough Lane 2.0 is the same size as ours. Same length and width.

Walsall manager is a knobhead but he said the same.
