Bit nervous about this one, everyone will expect us to win but coming off the back of a tough game on Saturday where we looked knackered at the end, i think this one could prove tricky and we might end up having to settle for a point.
However winning breeds confidence, so i hope we can keep the run going.
In this division the ‘easy’ games on paper prove difficult and the ‘hard’ games prove not so hard but still difficult. No game warrants complacency. Luckily, I think JJ is more aware of this than the rest of us put together.
One of the things I have noticed about this division is teams near the bottom can be better in many ways than some teams above them. It is probably because there is a default solid consistent template that gets you results against the lesser teams and you can have teams struggling a bit which have a higher capacity to raise their game but can't sustain it game after game.
I know very little about Morecombe but I think I know the better sides, irrespective of position. Morecombe have played three teams I would put in this classification, Ipswich, Sheff Wednesday and Plymouth and achieved two draws and a victory (against Wednesday). This could put Morecombe in that category of a side that can raise their game so we shouldn't take it lightly.
xG can get in the bloody bin though, apparently we have scored more than our xG in every league game under Jacko.... We should've scored 8 or 9 against Donny

Isn't it that we've had more xG than the opposition in every game? Or is it both? Either way, it speaks well of us

Its a compliment to our players, we have been more clinical with harder chances than the average would expect.
Our injury record continues under new management, ownership and staff. I have often wondered if Sparrows Lane is built on ancient Indian burial ground.
If Lee is out injured then honestly the best man for the position is Clare, but then, that depends on Pearce being fit. Either we change our shape or we bank on a Kirk/Morgan/Arter redemption tale (in decreasing order of likelihood)

Game like this we will miss Stockleys physical presence but we have enough about us all the same, Think the raw Burstow may be an ace in the hole.
1-0 Charlton and Davison to score.

Would probably be a good area for a weekend game. Especially if the sun's out
We've just lost six nil to Morcambe in the bloody preview.
Think the latest endeavours may have taken a toll.
I'd be well happy with a point
The prospect of Morgan, Kirk, Arter are hardly filling me with joy.
