    I think Rotherham will try to frustrate us with a low block but unfortunately for them, we will get an early goal, forcing them to open up wider than Redruths bum cheeks!! 0-3 Town, Chaplin, Hirst 2

    Do we get two (or should that be three)stabs at the score for this one?

    I'll stick with my original 3-1 to Town.

    COYB!!!

    I will stick with my 1st stab and we may well use 3 or 4 fresh squad players after all the International commitments.

    I see Luongo got MOM award!

    2-0 Town

    I am afraid I predict the game will be called off. Storm Babet, who the f...k is called Babet, no-one in Suffolk, Essex or Sussex! 50 mms of rain on Friday up Rotherham.

    Trust me, I am a Geographer!

    Yeah I was thinking the same gaffer, wouldn't be good for the 3k+ town fans travelling up!! The good thing is....if it is off, we can sit back and relax knowing whatever happens we will still be 2nd

    I think it will go ahead. It’s a long way south of the red warning zone. It sounds like the worst should be over by Friday afternoon.

    Combination of the manager of the month curse and a sh!t soggy wet pitch will see us struggle, can only see a crap 1 nil defeat.

    just to go along with Stretchys cheery prediction, since 2014/2015 we have played the 12 times in the league.
    Won 3, drawn 1, & lost 8 <yikes>

    If this match goes ahead, I'm going to go for a 1-1 draw. International break, poor weather conditions, potentially a boggy pitch ... got a bad feeling about this one.

    And 6 of the last 7 league games against them.
    But, since KmC has been in charge, we have blown a lot of the curses away that used to hang over us.
    This is a brand new team, with a new mentality, who won't give a sh!t what happened 5, 10, 15 years ago.

    Well, in spite if feeling sh...t, I believe that our preps and coaching is so thorough that whatever the weather, the pitch and abysmal refereeing can throw at.us, we will win.

    2-1 Town and Gaffers fever goes down!

    And Babet strolls on to the pitch in a pretty frock in front of the Blue army faithful, does a curtsy and they all sing heartily!
