Tuesday night sees Forest Green come to PP at the start of a run of 3 home league games in 7 days. Like ourselves the visitors squad has changed a fair bit since our play off battles in recent years.
FGR sit 4th at the moment but only one point off top spot. Still managed by the at times annoying Mark Cooper, their squad includes ex rovers loanees Aaron Collins and Kane Wilson. The former who I’m sure scored in the 9-0 win v North Ferriby, and the latter who always impressed me but had injury issues and wasn’t in the FGR squad for their draw v Port Vale on Saturday. Alongside Collins they have Jamille Matt who played for Newport against us at Wembley.
As for the rover side, selection will depend on the next round of COVID tests. After his goal and performance v Leicester I was a bit disappointed CBT didn’t start on Saturday but maybe he will after our goalless display at Stevenage. However whether he can fit into the 4-3-3 remains to be seen. Unless OConnor is available assume Khan will continue at RB as he did ok and Manny will stay at CB alongside Clarke.
Prediction: a draw against a strong opponent wouldn’t be a disaster, but it would mean another game without a victory and the negative social media storm that has gathered some momentum would continue...
