An in form Plymouth side are the next visitors to PP buoyed by an impressive 3-2 win against an albeit rotated Swindon in the JPT this week. Currently lying 8th in L2 they have an experienced gaffa in the form of former Oldham man John Sheridan plus a goal threat at this level through Rueben Reid and the likes of Lewis Alessandra.
This will be a sterner test you would think than what rovers faced (and toiled against at times), on Tuesday night.
RE was complimentary about the performances of Koumas & Holness so expect them to start to give some experience. Personally I'd like big Odejayi to remain in the starting Xi but with someone up alongside him. The question is whether RE will play 5 in midfield mindful of another bad day at the office and being cautious from the start.
It will be interesting what the spirit is like after a win on penalties but one which should not paper over the cracks still evident in the side. An early goal for us will settle the lads down but if we go behind then things could go sour.
Not wishing to be negative but what price this being REs last game in charge? Given Carlisle & Hartlepool have changed managers recently.......
