A long trip on the road to north east Lincolnshire awaits this weekend for Sutton as we’re still in search of our first success on the road this season, we remain unbeaten in the league in November - here’s hoping that stays in tact come 5pm tomorrow afternoon.
I think we drew 0-0 up at Grimsby towards the end of August last season before losing 0-1 at home in March. Seems like we’ll have Harry Smith available tomorrow after initially thinking he’d be suspended - Gape and Milsom both went off on Tuesday night in the EFL Trophy so this match might come too soon for them but Lee Angol will return to the squad.
Safe travels to those heading up.

And, at the risk of sounding like a broken record, we need points. If we're not to make the formidable set of fixtures, between now and the end of the year, even more formidable for us.
Grimsby away is not easy. But it's soon going to get far less easy.

I'm hoping that Omari gets the chance to come on up front at some time as his pace will surely trouble defenders.Now looks like Gape will be available and will probably start with N'Guessan. Did the drive last year. Not this time for me but safe journey to all travelling.
What's happened to mystic meg lately ? I miss his predictions.

I was thinking that the other day. Don’t think he would’ve got too many away predictions correct this season!

Hope Donovan doesn't come back to bite us.

Must get a point. Yes we need three points but a point in the road is good, come the end of the season they will count..

Could do with finding that elusive first away win. Grimsby much better at home than away and improved under caretakers, on that basis another point is a decent return but an away win will do wonders for our prospects.
Re. future opponents/run the old mantra works well, game at a time. We can compete with most in this league now, particularly at home.

Lose this and we are likely 8 points from any remote chance of real safety. We will also have demonstrated that we can't win games on the road, or at home to the teams around us. It will be bleak and yes, I'm being pessimistic, there's not been much on show recently to encourage me otherwise.
We need 3 points. With the run of games coming up this is the best chance we are going to get in a while. A draw really isn't good enough results-wise, although maybe performance-wise it is.

Deserved more. 2 good chances to win it for Goodliffe and Coley and a great stop by the keeper from Smith's header. Important not to lose to a rival but we were the better team today.

Signs of improvement still there, it’s another good away point. We do need to find some 3 pointers soon though. Tuesday is another chance.

Better form, but another game we needed 3 points. Mixed feelings of late.

Sounds like we should have one this game but that is three draws in a row now so defensively we are improving, but must take our chances when they come. We are four points off Tranmere now and Tuesday game wont be easy, crew are in the top six. Having said that we are still in touch but many more draws or losses could see us adrift so really we need wins.

Just seen the league table, crew are fourth and won there last three games so a really tough game on Tuesday. As I have saiid in the previous thread we really need something from that game. ⚽️⚽️⚽️
