I would expect/hope to see around five changes to the side today, including Anyinsah who I would hope does the 'score against your old club' trick. I expect to see an improved team performance, but I'm not going to stick my neck out for the win to avoid jinxing the result! So I'm going for a non-jinx play-safe score draw.
Didn't he score two goals the game before last? The guy feeds on good crosses-he's hardly to blame if he's not getting any service. We should be learning our lesson about keep blaming everything on the strikers-how many times have we done that in the past and then the player in question has gone on and scored goals elsewhere, sometimes even at a higher level. The lack of decent service is the issue and, with Reid now out of the team, I can only see that problem getting worse.

Fair point and I hadn't forgotten his 3 goals.
Just my opinion but I don't think he cuts it at this level, we need more than somebody who takes up space on the pitch in the forlorn hope that now and again the ball will fall for him in the box.
I'm hoping Joe has that certain spark.
(PS Hope Benno just keeps scoring and proves me wrong)

Get him in and give him the ball.
Sorry Benno - had your chance, muffed it.
Provided my man is playing I'm going for us to pull a rabbit out of the hat = 0-2.
Parky to cling on for another week

I am happy to eat humble pie and take another in the face.
