Just when you start to build up hope that this might be a good game to end our losing run, Rochdale go and sack their manager. Hopefully Rovers will fare better against Chris Beech's side than we managed against Dean Smith and Stuart Campbell's teams last season.
O/s says Goodi and Raven will be fitness-tested late in the day, while Kay seems unlikely to be fit. Who would our talisman replace if recalled, Ash was one of our better players last weekend, while MM has done ok since coming back. I'd also prefer Danny Holmes to get a start in the hope he might be able to offer something different at right-back.
Further forward, expect Weir to come straight back in for Labadie. Otherwise, not expecting any changes, though would prefer Robinson to start ahead of Baxter. Martin Devaney not mentioned on the o/s, so not injured, just airbrushed out. Baffling.
Prediction: Rochdale should bring a few hundred, but given our own poor form, home support may be quite limited, so a crowd around the 6k+ mark. I will be on Wirral, but engaged in some negotiations as to whether I'll make the game. Have never seen us lose a Boxing Day fixture, hope that run continues, but I'm not confident.
