6-3 thriller gate officially as 9,452, In actual fact 3,566 - 222 people outside

Sordell hat trick,Turnbull, Willis and Agyei

I thought that apart from the lad up front with red hair, Oxford were lightweights.

I fear that a Keith Hill inspired Rochdale will bully our lads and cannot see past a 1-1 draw at best.

2-1 Cov Sordell & McCann

 

[CCFC88]

Sounds like they had a tough trip to Swindon last night with a sending off to boot, would like to see stability through the spine of the team so keep defence CM trio and Ageyi up front, maybe rest Llameiras for Reid.

1-0 city

1-0 city agyei (64th min)

I don't think that we have ever beaten Rochdale. They are our ultimate bogey side and God knows there are a lot of bogey sides about. I feel that we will struggle without Tony's inspirational and motivational half time team talk but nevertheless I feel it in my bones that we might get something out of this game. A season defining win 1-0. I would love it to be a last minute penalty to exorcise the ghost of that horrendous match at the Ricoh last year when they got that mickey mouse penalty in the last minute.

I'm going, so 2-0 and a Sordell hattrick, before my then heading off to my night school maths exam.

How does that work?

 

[Gazolba]

We're unbeaten at home, they are toward the top of the table. Has a draw written all over it. But if we are to lose our unbeaten home record, this could well be the game. We better not be over-confident after a narrow win where we were gifted one goal.

 

[lifeskyblue]

1-0.....heart in mouths last half hour...but we end the week on a high. Well that what I'm hoping. But I don't know the Rochdale team...if they are a bullying attack I fear for our defence. We look very vulnerable as soon as a team uses their physical strength

5-0.

I remember my school days. Rochdale were always the team that finished bottom of Division Four (age clue there) but never got relegated as whoever was due to come up, their stadium wasn't good enough.

 

[Monners]

So is our stadium too good for us to go down? (yes, I know - it isn't our stadium)

 

[shmmeee]

Everyone thinks we'll win, so obviously a loss.

Gonna predict a draw again, worked last time. 2-2 Agyei and McCann.

 

[torchomatic]

2-0 to us. Don't care who scores.

 

[Gint11]

Need a win. Rochdale going well but home advantage and unbeaten. Probably lose then.

 

[Otis]

How does that work?

Well you go in, they allocate you a seat and then they give you a pencil and a piece of paper with questions on it.

I am expecting it to last an hour.

Hope that helps.

I meant Sordell scoring a hat trick and us winning 2-0

 

[tom88]

I find it remarkable that we are 9pts from 6th place with a game in hand!

Tomorrow with a win and other teams dropping points we could reduce that to 6points with a game in hand!

I'm going for another 2-1 win to keep the unbeaten home record intact

 

[ready_96]

All depends on how we start. Start slow and they get an early goal i can see them sitting back and just defending their lead, with the chance of a counter if we over press and loose the ball.

Hope Venus can get them fired up and ready from the get go. I'd play an unchanged side and formation. 8k and a 1-1 draw

Just hope the off field protests don't effect the game too much....

Hence the maths exam.

Hence the maths exam.

Far too cryptic

 

[Monners]

We will win - mind you, I said that about the Charlton game!

 

[dongonzalos]

1-1 tight game

 

[vow]

Win win, out on the piss regardless.

heart says win, head says win too.

 

[Nick]

Hopefully Venus will get them fired up for the occasion.

 

[Gint11]

2 wins in a week is exactly what we need. If we can lift ourselves 4/5/6 places up, all of a sudden, it doesn't seem as bad as when you are rock bottom.

 

[Macca1987]

My heart says another 2-1 win but my head is telling me a hard fought 1-1, we are either going to catch Rochdale just right after their loss or they'll be all out to put it behind them

 

[ajsccfc]

Two wins in the space of a few days could be the catalyst we need to get moving. Stevenson running the show would be lovely.

 

[torchomatic]

Christ, if Rochdale can turn things around so quickly then I'm sure we can. Charlton apart we have played well in all of Venus's games, so hopefully he can get them fired up for tomorrow. Can't wait.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

Finally got my 2-1 so while I'm on a roll it's going to be 3-1 you heard it heard it here first.
