Well it's matchday and I'm awake at stupid o'clock again, so might as well make myself useful and get this started!

After last week's stroll around Gloucestershire, surely Barton's boys will give us a sterner test won't they?

Joey certainly seems to be doing everything he can to rile us up and I think it will come back to haunt him. With our front three getting a better understanding all the time, I wouldn't want to be in the Rovers backline tomorrow. Despite our sometimes shaky looking foundations, I can only see one winner in this game. And in front of a full house too!

4-1 victory in front of 7978. Stansfield, Brown, Nombe & Smith with the goals.

And Barton sent off. Obviously.

Doesn’t seem likely to happen but would love to see a surprise appearance from Sam Stubbs to remind his old boss how good he is.

Just about to place bet on Stubbsy or Matt Taylor nutting Barton at full time plus Jay S getting his first Grecian goal in front of full Big Bank ! UTC

What was the last home sell out we had for a league game that didn't involve promotion or relegation?

Arg*lye in 2019 I guess? Not including promotion/relegation or derby games, it must have been Leeds in 2009. Prior to that, I have no idea.

Temporary banner needed for the St James Road stand - ‘The Arse End’ (or Skid Row) :)

Should be a good day, expecting the tram to be much the same as last week.

Just win please. Their ridiculous manager to go home with his tail between his legs and a very useful 3 points for us UTC
