Saturday is a must win game and its as simple as that.

Tranmere will not attack us like Notts County did, so we need to go out all guns blazing and make it a comfortable win.

I will be dissapointed if its anything but 3 points on Saturday, despite their half decent run of form over the last 5 games.

Its not a must win 6 pointer though.  A draw will be fine. Again I don't want a draw  but I won't be calling for the managers head if we draw.  This is the sort of panic social media is guilty of.

Maybe it's a must not lose.game? But again, not really, if teams below.keep losing....

But what if they don't?

We need points on the board and shouldn't rely on others, so therefore it becomes a must win game.
Especially based on their position and form over the last two games.

I agree that it is not a six pointer, but it is a must win and in my opinion, a draw is not good enough.

I’m far from convinced we’re not going to get sucked back in . I’m generally not a pessimist but recent results don’t suggest there’s a sudden resurgence coming.

We need to win the game, and the home fans need to see us defend properly. For me, if we do that and it turns out to be a hard fought draw with us doing things that are effective and entertaining, then a point would be ok.
Key thing is - don’t lose and don’t give goals away. If that happens there’ll be another load of frustration, anger, moaning and general sh1t storm noise.

"It's not a 6 pointer, but it is a must win."

What is your definition of a 6 pointer?

Too much pessimism on here for me.

We're in trouble IF the sides below us start an (unlikely) upsurge in form AND our form is very poor  - which assumes the players
DA brings in this window don't strengthen our team.

I have too much faith in the ExtraSpecialOne to accept the latter. (viz Harry Wood)

We only need to sort out our defensive frailties and we'll be one of the better sides in this league...and our manager knows that.
