For good measure they accused us causing trouble in their home end years ago. As if they are angels. Some are coming just for the game and leaving Dodge City as quickly as possible. (They also expect to bring up to 1,800).
To be fair we did have a minibus/ coach full that travelled with that in mind and did go in the home end one year.

Think it's time for 442 with Clifton back in the middle, McGuire Drew and either Sousa or Bapaga as wingers and Bell and Taylor up top. Back to basics.

Time to play Scannell if he's as fit as he looks in the training videos.

Think he'll be on the bench this weekend, certainly seemed to get that feeling after Hursts interview. Let's be honest, he's only good for 30 minutes but he has the ability to turn games in that time, maybe he'll be our secret weapon!!..

Amazing that he's getting fit as he approaches the final 6 months of his contract.

So do I but you can't deny them the bragging rites that being top of the league brings, we would if it ever happens to us again

I also saw comments that we are in complete meltdown. Fans fighting each other last Sat. The team sliding down the league. McAtee out, and Hunt as well (?? They said).
They could see 2 quick goals for them. This would result in our fans becoming toxic, turning on the players and Hurst. An easy 4-0 win for them. If football was so predictable, it would be boring and no one would watch it. We would all have won the Pools and retired (rich) to live in Barbados.
With such arrogance, I hope we get a 1-0 win or even a draw. (When we won at Anfield 20 years ago we were in similar very poor form).
For good measure they accused us causing trouble in their home end years ago. As if they are angels. Some are coming just for the game and leaving Dodge City as quickly as possible. (They also expect to bring up to 1,800).
Hunt is suspended, along with McAtee obviously. Coke a doubt too, so we risk being very light through the middle. The more I look at respective form, our injury and suspension problems (again) and the crest of the wave they’re riding, the more impossible it becomes to convince myself that we can take anything at all from this game. And yet, to your point about the unpredictability of football, it’s that complete absence of logical confidence that causes me, somewhere at the very back of my unconscious mind, to think we just might go and win it. Put it this way, if the score line ends up being 4-0 in either direction, that would be a very Town-ish thing to happen.

Would remind me of the Man City game in 1985. They were top of the league and we were languishing in the lower half of the table with about 1 win in the last 7 or 8 games. I can still clearly reacall the chants of "What The intercourse Is Going On" from their fans, when Kev Drinkell smashed in our 4th.

While we know about our problems it was said at the Salford match that Chesterfield had 12 missing so they have their problems too, I think it will be a tight game and we'll edge it 2 - 1 because we do well at home and our home form is brilliant, no defeats. It doesn't matter how many fans they bring ours are better and will outdo theirs any time, so all in it's going to be a good day.
