Must win

 

[steve82]

Many will want to see a 4/5 nil win in this one, reality is different tho. Can see it being 0-0 at half time and plenty to groaning about it with lots of sideways passing and 11 forest green players stifling any attack with a typical away performance.

2-0 win at best for me and MR has to make changes to his starting 11 from yesterday.

 

[I_Saw_Shaw_Score]

3-0
Nazon, Doyle & Ponticelli.

No dramas.

Must start asserting ourselves much earlier in the game.....we are fast becoming a second half team.

2-0 for me, Jones and Duck..

 

[Otis]

Can't go. Therefore hopefully a terrible game with an scrappy own goal in the 3rd minute and then 87 mins of total non football and boredom for a 1-0 win.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

If we score early we should give them a bashing if not a scrappy 1 0,

 

[Ashdown]

We should kick that round thing to each other, progressing to the other end of that big green patch of grass where we fill find a metal rectangle with a large fishing net fitted. We should avoid the other teams men in tight shorts and put our bag of wind in that said fishing net...............several times. Simples !

 

[covcity4life]

Vincente for dke
Kelly for stevenson if fit again

2-0 win jones and biamou first goal

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

we'll win but it'll only be 1-0

 

[ccfcway]

we'll win but it'll only be 1-0

1-0, or 4-0, its 3 points !

1-0 McNulty pen

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

I’d love to see us in their faces early on but can see this taking on the familiar pattern of possession based first half with FGR all behind the ball. Hard fought 1 or 2-0 for me, can’t see us putting anyone to the sword but a win is a win!

 

[Nick]

If Kelly is out, id play vincenti just in front of Doyle

 

[DannyThomas_1981]

McNulty in for DKE
Kelly in for Stevenson
Beavon the link between the midfield and forwards. So Beavon in for Biamou.

All of these changes a little harsh on the players dropping to the bench who have performed ok.

The more technical players we have on the pitch the better.

 

[Paxman II]

I expect a no fuss win.

 

[letsallsingtogether]

Must win.

 

[Otis]

Must win.

What, with all these useless players we have? Impossible.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

Get in players that are not lazy we will win

 

[Gint11]

Tight game. We will dominate possession but with FGR getting 11 behind the ball it all depends on what we do in the final 3rd. I'd drop DKE, Stevenson and Biamou.
Expect to win though, 1-0, 2-0

Should be a 2-0 win but we all know what usually happens when CCFC play a bottom club who supposedly have no chance.
Hoping Ponticelli starts or at least gets 45 minutes.

 

[Skybluefaz]

Go on...

 

[johnwillomagic]

Think we will win 2-0 hope Kelly is fit I am assuming he will be in which cas ewould go with this side.

Burge
Stokes
Grimmer
MacDonald
Willis
Doyle
Kelly
Jones
McNulty
Duck
Beavon

Subs: O'Brien, Davies, DKE, Stevenson, Vincenti, Biamou, Ponticelli

It's my ball and I'm going home

 

[I_Saw_Shaw_Score]

We may have just found our goal scoring answer.....

Cool!! That will mean the match will be rearranged and I'll be able to go when it is rescheduled.

I'm going and it's going be a fantastic , entertaining game . It's the old 5 !!!

For the young ones , the old 5 is when the city used to score 5 goals regularly in a game !!!

I always thought the Old Five was the cast of New Tricks.

 

[Covstu]

It's a game we need to score goals and put in a solid performance. I would love to se us smash them but most thought about that with the Newport game and looked what happened. 3 points is a must but a convincing win would be desirable

The old five was 5ive, the new five is three. Slam Dunk (Da Funk).

The only '5' you are likely to see is the 5 minutes Ponticelli will play.

 

[Ricketts]

5-0. Two in the first half and three near the end when The Forest Green Rovers players run out of protein.

 

[Nick]

I am interesting to see what changes he makes.

If Kelly is injured I'd have a go at this.
