    Hope people make the effort to attend tonight - obviously some live far away or have work commitments or have money issues but if none of those and your planning on sitting at home locally watching on a stream, give yourself a talking to and get down there - COYR !!!!

    Really hoping for a win tonight but with a Barnsley team on a winning roll it might be tricky. 4 points from the nexr 2 games would be amazing. Can we do it? Maybe, 1-1 tonight.
    I am told those wins paper over some serious cracks. We have seen it ourselves with the relatively poor periods in the second half at Orient. Have to score when we are on top and then should be ok.

    Bit nervous about tonight. I think it'll be an extremely good omen and will speak volumes for the level of desire in the team if the players' levels don't drop after the excitement of Saturday. However, a good amount of energy was spent on Saturday in what was an intense game and it's has been a good run of fixtures with very few changes to the starting XI each match. Feels inevitable we'll have a little bit of a dip eventually -  another Rotherham performance may show up at some point. Ideally we win both but, if that can't happen, I'd take a draw tonight if it's followed by a win on Saturday as that will keep Barnsley at arm's length and guarantee we make up some ground on a team above. I think that'd be better for us that winning tonight and drawing on Saturday, although both scenarios would mean we've had a great week from 3 tough fixtures.

    Good news for the Crawley game is their striker Showumni has been banned for three games.

    Doesn't look like the attendance is any better. Empty again as far as I can tell from the stream.

    Anyone else at The Valley in mid 80s when we went 0-3,down and won 5-3? I was a student and had friends from Barnsley in the away end. Could see them jumping up and down when they scored then it all turned round and got even better when their striker got sent off. Nearly all the goals in front of the Covered End?
    I was there. Not the first time I’d seen us come back from 3-0 down and not the last time either though definitely the first I can recall us coming back from 3-0 down and winning. Off hand, I can’t recall whether we’ve repeated winning from that position since.
    0-3 v the scum and came back to 3-3, the promotion season at the supermarket. 
    But that's not winning although it seemed like a win.

    O-3 v norwich in late sixties boxing day I believe, came back to 3-3 Harry Gregory who scored the equaliser had a unique celebration, he ran to the touchline & shook hands with the old bill.
