On the road again, and thankfully the last scheduled long journey for another 5 weeks (barring FA cup games of course)
One of the pre-season favourites, Stockport seem to be finally picking up the form most expected from them out of the traps. They've only failed to score in one game in the league this season (a 0-0 at home to Harrogate) so you'd expect we'd need to score if we want anything out of this game.
Hopefully Louis and Easty will both be back for this, but if we play anywhere close to how we did on Tues night we've got every chance of not leaving Edgeley Park empty handed. It's a place we've not lost at (drawing on our first visit there in early 2020, and then the 2-0 victory on the way to the league title in 2021, including the comedy own goal from them).

The County forum makes interesting reading. Apparently we had 2 strikes out injured on Tuesday and Tobi Sho-Silva was on the bench. Hopefully Dave Challinor doesn't do his research either but I doubt it.

Bit of crossed wires there I think, though it was in the Sutton thread they were talking about Carlisle, who we beat 2-0 on Tuesday. Hope those of you venturing north have a good trip, got a lot of time for Sutton and the Gandermonium blog, and I’m expecting a tough game. Hopefully we’ve hit a bit of form at the right time.

Your prediction of the score Sol may well be close but i'm not sure about Donovan taking the ball home! lol. Good luck to all those travelling.

Fun fact: after tomorrow's game, and within the space of three months, we'll have played away against all six of the clubs that rejoined League Two for this season (Doncaster, Crewe, Grimsby, Gillingham, AFC Wimbledon, Stockport).

Wishing all Us making the trip a pleasant journey up and back, albeit I hope you return with 0 points. I've been up here in my homeland since Monday and it was probably our best performance of the season so far against Carlisle on Tuesday. We've had an indifferent start but are undoubtedly improving: taking 3 points from our first 5 games, 5 from our second 5 games and 10 from our third 5 games.
I think the "pre season favourites" tag was only ever because of the amount of money lumped on us at the bookies early doors when odds were longer. For me I think a push for the playoffs even if we miss out would be a good season especially after the last 11 years. Similar to what you guys did last season. Some of our fans might expect back to back promotions but I don't think most do.
Hope to see both sides nearer the top than the bottom come the end of the season regardless.

Wanted to make this one but I refuse to give greedy clowns Avanti a hundred quid for a 6.5 hour minimum journey time. Took 4 hours to get back from Liverpool on Monday with same engineering works. Screw that and screw them. Should be a good game though.

You're not wrong! I recently took a train journey from Naples, 3h 40m, departed and arrived perfectly on time. I splashed out on 1st class. 26 Euros.

My feed has been quite jumpy so didn’t get a clear look. Appeared to be a bouncing ball, his foot was raised to win it. Don’t think any intent to take player out nor much force to it but is like a proper look. Stockport fan on league 2 forum thinks very harsh.
It’s been predictably one sided since. Need to make the most of our rare forays but in truth it could rapidly descend into damage limitation.

Matt and Jason will be able to learn from this how to defeat 10 men.

3 .0 now, not a good day at the office. To many injuries and ones we went down too ten, the belief went. Just move on now and put this behind us because that’s all we can do. Think Matt won’t be happy with this performance though. ⚽️⚽️⚽️ Hardly think he’ll be unhappy at all with the team.
