Another real tough one to call, both teams in decent nick, could go either way. Spence will of course be a miss, and may even have played his last game for us, but Steve won’t be fazed and will have a plan to cope. Boro’ have edged us recently, not usually by much, but they have been better, however, we’ve turned a corner and are a much better all round team these days, I’m not overly confident of a win tomorrow and would be more than happy to share the spoils. Grabban to net again in a 1-1 draw. Being away from home seems to suit us these days with much improved performances, we could win this, which would probably put us in the play off positions, seemed like a dream not too long ago, and had Colin still been in charge we probably would have won, but Wilder has them playing decent stuff. Not much between us and a fascinating game in the offing.
Just to add to the above, a win for either team would put them into the play offs, yes they’ll have played more games, but I’ll take points on the board any day.
We have injuries, but we're maintaining momentum not having games called off due to Covid, so a point wouldn't be a bad result.
We are currently one of only THREE games going ahead tomorrow, and quite a few called off in the next round of fixtures. Fixture pile up could end up being massive.

The Smoggies ? I've never herd them called that before.
Tutu and Mighten out for two months: (predicted line-up)
Samba
Worrall Yates McKenna
Drager Garner Ojeda Colback
Johnson Grabban Z.Nagel
Horvath
Figs
Bong
Lolley
Carvalho
Cafu
Taylor
Will this be one enforced change to many? If we can get a win here we move up to 5th.
Thanks for doing the thread, first time i’ve been sober in about 48 hours!
Looks like Drager is with Tunisia for the African Nations Cup. Could Back be back?
I think I’d prefer Back over Drager, he played early on in the season and looked a good prospect. If Spence has played his last game for us then Richardson will return having played a few games against men.
Avoid defeat and we move into fifth spot and will avoid fixture congestion later in the season. What an amazing turn round.
Thanks for stepping into the breach Bear.
I’m hearing we are live on Sky this afternoon. Hull v Blackburn has been postponed.
Fin Back gets the nod. Figs CB, Colback LWB, Yates CM.

Bummer
Just realised Silva is on the bench for Forest this afternoon.

Probably makes sense, with Mighten and Lolley both out injured we don't have any wingers on the bench. I understand that he is a winger rather than a striker.
Yates scores an unfortunate O.G
Poor Ryan he will have the haters on his back again after this, especially if we don't get a result.
Should have been two there
Desperate. Holding on here.
They've got their tails up , need to keep it tight.
Sounds like we're getting battered at the moment.
