Is this the first time Armstrong will play against us since he left?
Let’s hope not.Same team please.
But he's itching to play Palmer, which would be quite disruptive imho.
Motivation for him knowing were going into a busy Christmas period?Because of Robins post match interview and obvious enthusiasm for Palmer coming back.
Palmer just slows tempo and work rate, both of which are essential to us playing well.
Rose sent off early onPlayed against us for Blackburn. Pretty sure he got at least 2 when they beat us 4-0 at St Andrews.
Same team please.

I actually think this our best chance of any points from the next 3
We'll get injuries and suspensions over Christmas anyway, and they can't all play every minute of every game. If Donald Duck's up for a bit of box to box he'll get some minutes.We haven't seen palmer in the new system have we anyway ? Maybe wait until he gets some minutes in it which I'd imagine will be substitute minutes
Didn’t realise he played for Wrexham.Played against us in the FA Cup last season.
Aled ArmstrongDidn’t realise he played for Wrexham.
I’ll only ever take a draw if we’re 3 goals down with 5 minutes leftIf it ends in a draw that’s a decent result - what don’t you understand?
6 games to the end of the month?First of six tough games until the end of the month take three wins and a draw if offered. Any positive result Tuesday will do me.

I'll take aA big game tbf, real acid test of our new system but I hope we can get at least a draw out of it.
As dominant as we were last night, Birmingham were awful and it’s clear Rooney can’t manage a football team. Southampton are doing really well and have stopped leaking as many goals as they were at the start of the season. We can beat the Plymouths, the Birminghams, the Millwalls, the Blackburns of this league but it’ll be interesting to see if we can do it against some of the Prem relegated teams.
I’ll go for a hopeful 1-1.
Ideally I'd like all 3 but will take at least take a pont, 2 of the bottom 3 teams are showing some form now and we play one of them soon.
I don't think their keeper is very good and he certainly got down like a crab trying to save the Watford equaliser yesterday .I cant see Robins changing the set up, and if all report back fit and ready then personal stays the same for me. The only squad change comes on the bench with Godden in Ayari out.
As for them solid team but the keeper is a mess, id be taking every chance to take shots early at him. He never looks set and i think he is a weak link for them. I also got a feeling we are going to thump someone soon and turn a big side over. A game is coming when every cross finds its man and every shot finds the net. I hope its this one and to get would be a big 3 pts.
No. Eccles slows the game down. We need to stick with the pace of Allen, Saka & O’Hare.If Eccles is fit he plays for Allen I reckon
That may be a bad move? Unless Allen is unfit.If Eccles is fit he plays for Allen I reckon
He also played in both games for blackburn in our first season up. scoring 2 in their 4-0 win.Played against us in the FA Cup last season.
Can't see it, if Eccles comes in, he'll likely drop Simms and pack the midfield like he did against Ipswich. O'Hare playing from wide but license to roam. Allen will play.If Eccles is fit he plays for Allen I reckon
I thought that myself, haha. It would indeed be hugely disruptive, however he could only swap out COH for Palmer, and I don’t see that happening. As much as I want to like Palmer, I’d rather COH at 75% fitness in there.Same team please.

If he was itching to play Palmer he would have been on for 20 mins on FridayIf he was itching to play Palmer he would have brought him on yesterday. There is no chance he starts on Wednesday.

Got Hull in 6th at the moment, not too far away.
This season there seems to be a bigger gulf between the top and bottom teams.
Top 4 or 5 teams are racking up points at a greater rate than the previous few seasons for teams in the top 4 or 5.
Bottom few teams have less points than the other few seasons, from what I can remember.
Kind of interesting to watch.
Bazuni is a good goalkeeper despite the mistake for Watfords goal yesterday. Originally being Irish I have followed his career a little bit and I would say he is one of the best goalkeepers in this division. I watched the highlights of the game on YouTube last night and Buzuni also made a handful of top class saves to deny Watford.I don't think their keeper is very good and he certainly got down like a crab trying to save the Watford equaliser yesterday .
How any do you make it then ?6 games to the end of the month?
