Unable to get to this, as on Friday. The Bristol Rovers form seems to have improved of late, so don't think this will be easy, but after Tuesday one we must win.

Haven't heard any more on Andy Taylor, but looking at where Blackpool are in relation to us, couldn't fault him for going there. So presume Tremarco at left-back, will there be any defenders on the bench given the 2 suspensions?

I'd hope for starts for Jones and Curran if Greenacre unfit, but given Ronnie's recent track record, no confidence this will happen,

I am going to the game tomorrow and its a game we really must win. Although Bristol Rovers form has gone up a bit there still 19th and if we want to challenge for promotion you simply have to beat team's that are 19th. Curran and Jones should both start. I thnk Curran should play alongside Zola, because Greenacre didn't sound like he was fit vs Orient. I assume Tremarco will start at left back as Taylor is still unavaliable according to teamtalk. The only defender on the Bench I can think of is Johnston/Holmes. Henry can play at centre back though and Moore has hinted that he may feature more in the first team - although I don't think he will be at centre back!

If we are to even stand a chance of getting back into the play offs at some point then realistically we need 3 points on friday night. Not sure whether if Taylor signs tomorrow that is too late to be included in the squad. Would have been nice to have had a couple in in time for this match.

Both Johnston and Holmes were on loan, not sure if they're back with us now? Sounds like another reason for having Henry on the bench instead of Ahmed to me.

This is a disaster! Bristol Rovers hit the post too just after taking the lead! Sounds very poor in a game we needed to win!
