For me, i would be disappointed if we lost but as we are playing currently i can't see us winning. So for me i would be content with a 1-1 draw. 
Your expectations for tonight? (1 Viewer)

We need to win. Look at them as a poor championship side rather than a top league 1 side. We can beat any team in this league.

In that case they will beat us then.
The fans have to treat this like we are the underdogs and get behind the team in the manner they would if we were playing a Prem team. Sheff Utd are favourites for this league and will be right up there at the end. Every tackle and pass we complete should be applauded and cheered, its the only way we will be able to go forward. We are an average side but could still do well if the fans moderate their expectation levels. At Yeovil our fans were largely poor because they saw only a big win as a good result and got on the players backs when it became apparent it wasn't a walkover !!

Just happy that footballs home, oh and that the Balti Pies have been stocked up for my visit.

Nothing less than a win tonight. This is what I always expect from CCFC. Sod being happy with a draw! that's 2 points dropped ffs! Come the end of the season, we could be looking at the points total and be thinking, "If only we won that game against so-and-so instead of sitting back on that draw (*sigh*). Now we're being relegated yet again."
Sorry guys. Being happy with a draw is defeatist talk. It's never 1 point gained. (Unless it's an away game against a top premiership team!)

I think as much as anything I am looking for a good performance, playing on the front foot higher up the pitch, putting Sheff Utd under pressure in their half. There has to be confidence and tempo to our game, good movement and crisp passing. Do that and I think we can get at least a draw
Am i confident of that ........ not really

Based on performance at Yeovil I expect we will lose tonight - the team just isn't ready

We must not lose this game, it's vital we keep a unbeaten at home record going for as long as possible, it's all about gaining momentum, and keeping it going.
I suggest a narrow win, but will take a draw.

Exactly what I've been trying to put across, Bulko! Sod being happy with a draw!
Id be happy with a draw doesnt mean i want us to though. I dont consider myself defeatist either. Your attitude appears to be go to win at all costs and potentially lose the game, therefore ending up with no points rather than the 1 we could get.

I agree, there is always more to be gained by going for the win than there is to lose
However although I would be disappointed with a draw it wouldn't be the end of the world

Houchens Head is spot on, we surely should only be happy with a win? we are the home side, we are in league 1 now, not the Prem or Championship, we should only be happy if we win games, especially at home, no matter who we face?

Think you misunderstand what I'm saying. If we were behind 2 or 3 nil and ended up drawing the game then yes, I'd be really pleased, but to be happy for a draw BEFORE the bloody game has even kicked off, THAT is defeatist talk! If we went out all guns blazing and totally bamboozled the opposition and ended up losing, then I would feel that at least we gave it a good go and showed them how to play. But I repeat, I do not believe thinking about a draw before the game, would be a good result. It's still always 2 points dropped.

We should be looking to win all our home games but having said that I'm not going to go into a meltdown if we get a draw. After the weekend i dread to think what it will like on here if we don't win. We really need to lose this attitude that we should be rolling over every other team in the league. We're in this division for a reason not by mistake and it's going to be a hell of a battle to get out of it. Think we'll see plenty of scrappy games. For me we're looking to at least stay in touch with the top 6 till Xmas and then go from there. Maybe get in a couple more loans if finance allows in Jan and push on for promotion.

A win would be good but if we don't win then it's not the worst thing in the world, Sheffield Wednesday (WLL) and Huddersfield (DDD) didn't have the best of starts last season

Draw wouldn't be a bad result against one of the best teams in the league. Although i do think Cov will win.....just.
