The tough games keep coming,and we travel to London Road on Tuesday Night.This will be a tougher away game than than MK Dons away two weeks ago,as they have players scoring all over the pitch.They lost 2-0 at Wolves on Saturday,but they will be looking at this game to put us to the sword with us leaking goals.I had a bad dream last night that we were losing 7-0 at Half-Time,so hopefully that was just a bad dream! :) I would take a point from the game right now,and I would go 4-5-1 and hope to keep it tight and nick a goal like at MK Dons.

What Team would you play? Here is the Team I think Taylor will play below.Fagan was not in the squad yesterday,so I`m not sure if he will be on Tuesday.Legge was injured aswell so Barrett may keep his place if there is no competition.Lee may start on the bench with his head taking a knock on saturday.Linganzi played well at MK Dons,and may start again.Hessenthaler should be fresh,so may start the game.

Nelson
Harriman,Inniss,Barrett,Martin
Hewitt,Hessenthaler,Gregory,Linganzi,Weston
McDonald

Subs:Baxter,Smith,Lee,Dack,German/Fagan,Birchall,Akinfenwa

Sitting here looking at the division table, we should be good for another 6 points at least, it is amazing how the fixture list has worked out with the bottom 6 or 7 teams just about all playing 2 or 3 relegation candidates.
I don't think we have to much to worry about even if we do not pick up any points against Pterb'ough or Orient , Crewe, Tranmere and Carlisle all have tough schedules coming up and I think Notts Cty and Stevenage will take up 50% of the relegated teams.
Watching Spurs in the rain trying to do there best NOT to get into Europe and get their manager fired and Sunderland doing there best NOT to stay in the Premier Division, hope these were free tickets the crowd got.

It didn`t sound a good performance from us.The first half did sound like we contained them well with five in midfield,and we had a chance on the break but Weston missed his one on one.The injury to Inniss was a blow aswell as we`re really short in the CB department at the moment.Them scoring just before half-time was a blow as our system was working up until them.We made a change at half-time with Bayo coming on for Linganzi,who I read played well before he came off.I only remember us having one chance in the second half when Bayo fed Cody,who`s lob was saved.From then it did sound like just Peterborough pressure,and how many they would score.I haven`t seen the highlights yet,but Gillsplayer said their second goal was a belter.Gregory gave away a penalty,but mr reliable Nelson made the safe to keep the score respectable.

I think we all expected a defeat last night,but I think we can do with getting something at Orient on Saturday.With the way we`re leaking goals you do worry where the next point will come from.We need to look at avoiding a third straight defeat,as it could get get a bit squeaky bum time.

From 3000+ miles away it sounded just like we really are, a team that will finish well and truly in the bottom half of the table, avoiding relegation by 3 or 4 points which is fine by me, just as long as we stay up. Hopefully Scally will open his purse for Taylor or who ever is the manager in May and bring in some new players for next years campaign, I fear a lot of the existing squad need to be playing 2nd division football not 1st.
