Only one topic to start - last night's attendance at the Badger's Nest - 191. Let's turn this into a home game.

Same team but Short for Bembo-Leta or Dens and JJ for Peers, who has done very well, but we need JJ in the team.

Why change a winning team? Bembo was arguably MoM last night

I do agree but I just feel Bembo-Leta has a few mistakes in him. Good at going forward but his defensive positioning does not fill me with confidence. However fair point and it is a 3rd clean sheet.
I suppose I would always select my strongest available team and that would include Short and JJ.
Hard one as Peers has done well too and for me he would be the one to give way for JJ. Hancock and Hulme are playing out of their skin. Poole just class.
God knows how we will accommodate Miller but what a great position to be in. We also have Richman and soon Taylor knocking on the door for centre mid.
This team excites me.

Bembo-Leta will be up for it against the club that released him. Simply has to start. And if JJ is available I'd start him on the bench. More of the same please !

Possibly Short for Dens, and JJ for Peers - but no more than that.

Fine line between keeping a winning team and keeping things fresh.

Steve Burr says he's quietly confident about Saturday following Celtic's 1-0 win over Halesowen which saw the sides swap places, the Midlands club now propping up the table:-

Greg Wilkinson is unavailable as he has been invited to a wedding to which Dens possibly hasn't.

Wilko was only a sub on Tuesday, so he's not a big miss for them.

Bembo-Leta was my MOM on Tuesday. Good athlete and has got pace. Good nights viewing. We had a good 3 x 30 minutes (I haven't mentioned the word half hour) ha! Road works on M6 going home dampened the night! Never been to Stalybridge. Whats it like? SBL

Stalybridge is one of the best grounds outside the football league, in a picturesque setting also. And you are correct about those roadworks, dreadful journey back

Big local derby for both teams this. I suspect they are probably better than their position suggests and will be very keen to put one over us, as we've done them at their place the last couple of times. Looking ahead if we do take the points sets us up very nicely for 2 very winnable home games after. Already the Stourbridge game on 14/10 is looking very important.

Stourbridge play Alfreton in the Cup tomorrow; the 4QR is on 14/10. so don't take it for granted that our League game will happen as planned. The same of course goes for next Tuesday - Nantwich are at home to Nuneaton tomorrow & that could well be a draw. Sorry to be a drag by providing a fixture reality check! As for tomorrow - the pitch will no doubt (dis)benefit from the current heavy rain but here's hoping for three points.

I actually looked at tomorrow's FA Cup games a few minutes ago while sorting out my weekend bets. And I've got Stourbridge to win and Nantwich to draw.

On the evidence of the season's betting so far, our two fixtures should be safe.
