Crewe fans say Oldham played a really hard pressing game for the first half an hour and it worked, but it knackered Oldham out and the Oldham players were seriously tired for the last 15 minutes, but Crewe could not capitalise. That bodes well for us if we have quality attacking players on the bench for the last part of the game (although hopefully we will already be in front by then)

Having looked at the recent form of Oldham it's actually pretty decent. The last gasp defeat to Crewe being their first loss in their last 7. I'm maybe doing them a disservice writing them off. I still think this will be a game where we run out emphatic winners as we are due one of those games I feel.

Well I am still over for this one, conditions I guess won’t be that good for Tuesday night. We played well enough Saturday, so will go for a repeat 2-1 win, all be it a bit more scrappy.

We must be Oldham's second furthest away game of the season, so hopefully they won't fancy that on a Tuesday night.

According to Google Maps, we're their third (Crawley are second). although travelling-wise it's probably easier to get to Exeter than to the likes of Colchester and Leyton Orient too.

Precedent suggests it's not the weather when you leave, but the weather when you arrive that's important - if our trip to Grimsby in 08/09 is anything to go by (I believe we tried to get the game postponed as we were told not to travel from Devon but were told we had to play). So I'm hoping they come down tomorrow and have a horrendous journey, only just making it in time for KO!

Very unsporting (but I agree entirely ;) )

Should be mullering this lot really. They have the 4th worst goals scored record in the league and in terms of goals conceded have the highest in the league other than the bottom 3. I'm going for a long overdue smashing where we play like we did against Argyle. A purring performance. A result that sends out a statement to the rest of the top 6 that we mean business.

5-1 to us. Ajose hat trick.
I Bleedy hope so would sort the goal difference out a bit which is needed!
