In the Jimmy Seed stand for this one. Will be an experience. Taking the gf to her first game. Hoping for a win!!! Solly to grab his first home goal. Just like London buses.
I think we're playing better with more of a 4-5-1 lineup and Chris seems to be finding the formation he likes. A comfortable 2-0 to the addicks. Fuller up front, Rasak just behind and BWP on the bench. Green and Kerkar on the flanks with Stephens and Hollands in the middle. The same back 5.
Great crowd, great atmosphere but not the result we crave. Barnsley were awesome against Brum but have not done so well since. I think for 70 mins we will pound them but only get the one goal. They will equalise and then it will be their turn to attack with Hamer earning us a draw. Very similar to 07/08?
So if the club are selling tickets in the Jimmy Seed stand, does that mean that the other 3 sides are either sold out, or very likely to sell out? If so the croud may be 24/ 25000 plus?
Just saw that the attendance Vs Stevenage last season was 26,546. Whether we can top this depends on how many tickets Barnsley fail to sell, presumably.
Last night CP was emphasising how back to back wins can give confidence a massive boost and he didn't think that the crowd numbers would make the squad nervy. The squad obviously likes to have the crowd singing for them but CP explained that they knew there was a job to be done and a sluggish start was not in his mind. Apparently all sides in the Chanps are struggling with home wins but I reckon CP has got the squad sussed and settled and adapting now so I'm going for a 2-1 win.
96th minute winner as a bullett header from a corner powered off Airman Brown's bonce after he invaded the pitch in full kit shortly before Danny Green's right peg swung in the delivery. Scenes of Airman sprinting over to the West Stand, sliding on his knees and giving the bird to the directors box to a chorus of 'One Rick Everitt' ....

as we're at home and noting Dale Stephens' comments about starting fast, think CP will revert to 4-4-2 with BWP coming in for Razak.
will our midfield then be able to handle theirs?
draw.
5,000 people buy season tickets on the back of it.
