Fleetwood

Tough test this. Our defence has to be on its toes for this one. Don't know if Tabiner is fit. Going for a 1-1 draw but wouldn't be surprised if we lost.
Scorer? Don't expect to get it right again all season after getting the previous two. Breckin.

[gazan]

Any gossip about people returning from injury?

[MeForCrewe]

Hi Gazan, by and large I think that you have similar thoughts to myself. I'm hoping for a draw and would take it now. No real ideas on our team selection. I've a feeling that Billington will get a start, Cooney could hardly walk when he collected his "Man of the Match", call me old fashioned, not Player of the Match, on Saturday in the lounge. If we score I will go with Conway

[gazan]

Oh oh! No MickeyD!!😱
We're not a one man team but he is so important!

[gazan]

Twice now the Alex have gone from near the Fleetwood corner and it went back to our goalkeeper. We are standing off. Some players seem half asleep and off the pace.
All the pressure is being brought on our selves.

[gazan]

Well! I think we were not quite deserving of a win tonight!
Mind you, the penalty decision was not the most convincing of the 4 appeals in about 5 minutes. And Cooney is now our leading goalscorer(in all competitions) with 3. Didn't like his penalty, not looking at the ball and eyeballing the keeper. He had to score as he'd had a set to with Bogle over who should take it.
Hope MickeyD is fit for Saturday to calm things down at the back. Another good game for Marschall.

MickeyD back on Saturday would be a bonus or maybe we are confident enough to give him a bit of a rest? Holicek to me is not on it at the moment and hasn't been all season really. Really impressed with Marschall, he's seems to be growing with each game. Cooney I didn't have a problem with taking the penalty and showed real confidence and it looked pre planned to me after what looked like the bench getting involved. Definitely the least convincing of our penalty shouts. Lunt I think will be involved a lot more as the season progresses. I thought that in the end we deserved the win with Bogel making a huge difference to us and gave us the confidence to go for it.

I think Chris Long also has 3, 2 Paintpot Trophy 1 League.

I think Chris Long also has 3, 2 Paintpot Trophy 1 League.

I'd forgotten (honestly!) about him, in terms of actually appearing this season. But yes I remember he scored 2 in that paint pot match but didn't come out for the second half. Apart from that I don't remember his other goal. However, when (if) he returns, 3 goals in the number of minutes we've seen him this season would be quite a scoring rate if he could keep it up (and stay fit) for the rest of the season. ( anybody able to work out how many minutes he's actually played this season?)

I think he scored at Bromley. Possibly the last minute winner.
