Just got back from a weekend away in Cornwall, free from any internet access! I will type up the OP in full later, once I have had a chance to catch up on things! Feel free to post in the meantime.....

I expect it to be bloody wet and windy (still). Poor conditions for football (which may suit us). I will get soaked and we will get a point (if lucky).

AFC Wimbledon have let in 8 goals in their last two games, we have let in 9....looks like an unlikely 0 0 draw!

With two home matches this week, we need a win and hopefully play like we were earlier in the season as opposed to mirroring the fortunes of the Grandstand. It is the new Wimbledon's first league match at Plainmoor and they will be looking to continue their good away form.
However, it could be a good time to play them after 2-5 and 1-3 home losses against Crawley and Crewe respectively. Very much an up and down side, they have also lost against Macclesfield 4-0 but then have good wins against Morecambe, Gillingham and Cheltenham. Top scorer is Jack Midson with 10 who will have very fond memories of Plainmoor after his first hat trick at the beginning of this year.
As for Torquay, it sounded like the rehashed defence only worked for 45 minutes. I can't really comment without seeing things in action but will be looking for some fight and passion all over the pitch. Hopefully the half term will see the family stand fairly full. Weather forecast is for showers....

Midson is a player that always gives us problems. He will have a field day. Actually I am trying to talk myself into going.

Just think, no one can say you cant criticise the team without seeing them  edit: And after a few hours that made me think it might stay dry....Raining heavily again  |

Sadly, I don't see any of them being ours! It will be interesting to see if Ling persists with Saah* after another game where he was berated by all and sundry**! I believe we can make a decent defence out of the players we have...if only we would stop putting square pegs in round holes!  *I know I haven't seen him play this season and it seems to upset certain people if I even dare to comment on his playing abilities, but if I hadn't, my post wouldn't have been very long! ;D **Well almost all! |

Lovely stuff!!!!
Glad that Stevens got us off the mark - if there is one player that I have seen during the bad run that has improved and has produced vastly improved performances it is Danny. Great to see a forward get on the scoresheet as well.
