Big game coming up. They lost their last game, so will be looking to reverse that. Cov have halted the losing streak and hopefully we can at least get a draw here but a win is really what we need.

Was going to this, but illness combined with weather means a no. Hoping it's played if we win, but half hoping it's called off so I can go (as long as we win!) Definitely attack is the best way against this bunch.

If we set up like we did for the first 15 minutes on Saturday then we're going to batter them - their defence will be unable to cope with the movement of McNulty and aggression of JCH. 12 goals conceded in their last 5 home games.
They are just flat-track bullies with a very poor record against the top 10 (shout out to Carlisle who have scored 6 goals against them and come away with 1 point to show for it!):
Against the bottom half of the table, Akinfenwa is in his element:
They are still top of the form table but that Morecambe result is going to send them on a little wobble. 1-4 to us, 2 each for McNulty and JCH as we register the first victory in our unbeaten run for the rest of the season, miraculously claiming the 3rd autos spot.

I would rest Doyle.
His left knee heavily bandaged at HT on Satdee and he was blowing out of his arse.
Start with Kelly and Bayliss.

Unless anyone has any insider information I doubt we'll find out until the team is released. Although the communication coming out of the club has been loads better this season, updates prior to midweek games have been few and far between.

We need to go and attack them. They are good going forward but vulnerable at the back. We cannot afford to sit back.
We need to go into this game with the mentality that we have to win.

As the old saying goes unless you're Kevin Keegan attack is the best form of defence

They have undersoil heating so the pitch won’t be an issue.

Are you a definite "No" H? Let me know if you're better tomorrow.

I’m convinced that below the Championship the quality of available defenders is generally below that of the available attackers, especially when you consider young loanees. So you’ll always do well playing “we’ll score one more than you”.

The pitch wont be an issue, its the surrounding areas that usually get the game called off. With Adams park being at the end of the industrial estate (which is heavily used), I cant see that being an issue, the hill coming down from Cressex would be the issue.

Cant say we noticed which team had 10 men in second half. The fitness levels including that warrior Doyle was immense.

Not me. We actually had a few spells of possession football and letting the ball do the work!
Kelly sat out most of the game having looked sharp. Doyle was blowing hard last 20 but it was his first match back from a break. Bayliss is a spring chicken. McNulty got a break 2nd half. JCH has barely played all season if he can overcome whatever knock he took. What is likely to be the back 4 - Grimmer, Hyam, McDonald, Haynes have all spent time out of the team recently.

I think our game Saturday more at risk than the one tomorrow night.

The opposite. They are an old team & hopefully this game will come too quickly for them. I am more worried about us dealing with their direct route one approach to Akinfenwa. Their forwards are quite cute about playing the percentages by getting an early nudge on the opposing centre half, whereby if the ref sees it (they often don't) they give away a foul by the opposition penalty box, or alternatively the defenders nudge the Wycombe forwards back, by which time the ref is watching, and they get given a free kick around the box. We really need our defenders to stay disciplined and not fall into their trap. If we do that I think we can win, and I'm not usually the most optimistic when it comes to CCFC!

Knowing our luck if we had him he would pull a muscle chasing the first aimless hoof up field.
Anyway doesn’t he see himself being too good for the likes of us.

In the home game they won lots of free kicks all over the pitch which were launched to the edge of our penalty area where they had 5 or 6 players challenging for it. A unique style! We need to try not to give needless freekicks away.
