MotM: 17-01-26. Worksop (H) Walker

[Grumpy old man]

I'm nervous about this one - how often does one team win three matches against another side in the same division in one season? Worksop will be trying to prove a point (and perhaps take one or three from the game).

We've only beaten them once and that was after penalties.

This has been doing to rounds on social media without any real information. There's more in this and hopefully he'll get the applause he deserves tomorrow.

Apologies - I thought that we had scraped a 1 - 0 in the league game.

That is the prematch interview for Curzon Phil

That's what came up as being posted 38 minutes previously. I just quickly put on here while having my lunch.

This is the correct one now (hopefully) posted 9 minutes ago:

I'd rest Digger and put Cooper in.

Coming back to Jim’s point about resting Digger, I suppose my question would be to rest him for what?

We are 10 points off top with 21 games to go. The obvious risk with resting Digger, our most influential player ATM IMHO, is that we mess up and are then 13 points behind with 20 games to go and what was already a difficult task starts to look very unlikely. (South Shields have Leamington at home tomorrow, so it is optimistic to think we’ll be fewer than 10 points off top by tomorrow evening!)

We can’t afford any slip ups at this stage, and whilst when we have 2 games in a week we may have to manage some players, before last Tuesday we hadn’t played for 10 days, and after tomorrow we have another week before we play again.

I say we pick our best team as often as we can and see where that takes us.

We are a club that has a habit of going on crazy runs (2012/13, 2022/23 and last season, just for example) - and we’ve already, quite quietly, won 8 on the trot again (counting Worksop away as a win), so let’s see how many we can win between now and the end of the season!

Spot on Tom. We have to go for it. If not now, when?

[Wymondham harrier]

Agree with Tom and Harry - time now to thrape this Kiddy FS1-E and see what we can get out of it.

Honda PC50 (step-thru) for me - my lumbering tighthead prop forward to your cool Italian flying winger ... bugger!

My first game in along time today, last game was Leamington at home. Not sure what to expect but just hope I don't jinx the lads - LOL. Lot of water under the bridge and if recent results are anything to go by, I hope to see some improvement from last time!! COYR.

I said on the Morecambe thread setting up like we did there would be a mistake. We can't press a team that lump it. And our tactic is to go out wide and cross it to tiny forwards
