If we lose 2 consecutive play offs following on from an EFL Trophy win then next season could complete the Phil Neal comparison and go backwards. Tougher league one next year no doubt. Some decent transfer business in and out this team could still get promoted next season but is evatt the manager to do it? I have my own ideas who should go and bring in 2 leaders, one midfielder and one central defender, a creative midfielder probably replacement for Maghoma and a goal scoring striker to partner Collins.

Maghoma might still be with us. According to Evatt, both he and Maghoma have been talking and there is a possibility that he could sign but of course, there are hurdles to be cleared.

I won't be available this afternoon, yet another birthday party. This will be the fourth one in quick succession. Today is my son's birthday and as you will know, the family must come before football.

I might be able to watch a bit of it but I can't take my laptop or continually be on my mobile. I'll be back tomorrow.

I hope we win and knock a few in but I'm not expecting a miracle although it would be nice.

Any interest in this today?
I'll be here, more out of habit than looking forward with anticipation to it.

The end of season blues have started early this year.

One match ban enabled

Went to purchase tickets for this yesterday as my attendance to matches has been poor this season.

When I saw it was £30 I decided that watching it on stream would be probably better for my wallet and possibly sanity.

Shame really.

Neal missed a trick there.
He could have sold tickets for a fiver today. It is the last home one of the league season.
The play offs, Neal will be making hay and cashing in.

Looks better balanced side. Taylor and Charles get minutes they need.

I hear it's a bit early for somebody.
Will Charlie boy last beyond HT?

Flag waving, photos and high fives.
There is a lot to do, before the ref chucks the 10 pence piece into the air.

Williams is playing not Ogbeta.

Ogbeta injured in warm up.

Collins with an early statement of intent here.

It's no longer funny how we break players, it's expected every week these days.

Ashworth on the bench. At least if another injury plenty of cover there.

Is the case someone gets back fit someone else injured. A few playing today had long absences this season.

Charles - Just Couldn't
Carried on where he left off.

Picked the wrong time to be trying to sort out a massive TV and broadband bill. That said there's not much going on.

I've got half an eye on the match on the big screen. The sound is lower than normal.
My interest waned more and more as the week has gone on.

They were all asleep in the box for that last cross from Paris.

Shooting has been an issue again.

As I've ushed the provider down by £60.

Now Paris hits one well over Row Z !

SWIE would be saying, we are still seeking that coach for the strikers. Plus, a couple of new strikers to replace the ones we have.

Everyone falls over ball is in the net but referee blew whistle already as he was on the deck.

Port vale are down as it stands with Burton winning 2-0 the only side they can catch.

We best hope they give up, when they hear the news at HT.

We should encourage Toal to shoot more often. He must be worth more than half a dozen a season.
