[Alty Dave]

Let's finish off the regular season in style. Strongest team and push for another 3 points. Then afterwards, find out whom we have at home next week and celebrate the player of the season awards in Sports Hall. My team would be;

              Ross

Banks Cooper Baines Jones

    Osbourne  Hancox

Amaluzor    CCC    Newby

          Linney

Subs, Angus, Mooney, Kosylo, Roscoe Gould

[AltyRobin]

A win gets us a home eliminator playoff tie do get 2 and 3 ahead and rest players.

3 games away from the football league and footballing immortality for the players and staff

Come on lads one last push

Only spot up for grabs is rw and we have players who can play there.

Alty 3-0 Oxford (Linney x2, Banks)

[Saughall Robin]

Dave's selection is definitely the one to go for.
We've already surpassed my hopes and expectations for the season and it's (hopefully) far from over yet!

[Steve from Sale]

Let's also avoid further injuries in the playoffs too. Phil, use substitutes wisely like I know you both will. Especially if we are a couple of goals to the good.

Hopefully get 2 or 3 up and withdraw three of Amulazor, Linney, CCC or Baines.
Ruthless first half needed.

On paper I'd withdraw Alex Newby before Justin Amaluzor, the former has had a lot of minutes whereas the latter has recently returned from injury.

But the management team will have a better handle on individual player conditions - they seem pretty confident on Alex's stamina whereas maybe Justin is one you naturally protect more.

Either way, I'm glad we've started to play our strongest team and withdraw nice and early when safe to, rather than rotating from the start and running everyone close to 90.

Apparently there's standing water on the pitch at the moment. Could be postponed ;-)

Where did you hear that?

[robininstockport]

i am a tad worried about the weather.  what would happen if the ref called it off?

Game will be absolutely fine - pitch hasn't been used for a while and it's a fairly bright / sunny morning.

Should be a good day for it! Let's get this done.

I think it will be fine.

Where did I hear it? My wife was at the club doing Yoga. She said the brown bit in front of the main stand had water on it. Rest of the pitch looks good.

Just listening to the Ollie Crankshaw interview at HT.  Did I miss something?  His injury was way worse than just his ACL.  Sounds like he is slowly progressing.  He said September/October for a possible return.   If we can hold this lead how good would it be for him to come back to an EFL club?!  We can dream right?!

There's videos of him on his feet doing some light ball work, I'm no expert but you'd like to think he'd be in a pretty strong position come the start of the season?

Look forward to seeing him return.
