If Matt Smith plays, they'll pepper our area with high crosses all the game, in the light of what happened last time we played them, and our weakness all season in conceding those kind of goals.This game will probably be a stern test for the new keeper.

I don’t think we can underestimate the effect wood has had on this team over the last 3 games he’s made us far more solid.
Can’t see us getting anything there, they’ve improved massively since Robinson went in.

Looking at the stats they got battered at Swindon, very lucky to come away with a point. Most teams get a short bounce under a new manager but it very rarely lasts long
We'll also have a keeper who isn't rooted to his goal line. We still don't look like scoring many from open play at the minute. Hurst chance was when the game was wide open. Other than that we actually were clinical you could say.
More of a test than Tranmere, and away too. We live in hope, but the reality says we lose.
The only change I would make for this is Nixon for Sterry.Stopping crosses getting in to the box is going to be the main priority. They have some quick wingers and attacking full backs.Once it’s delivered accurately and Smith is there I don’t think it matters who is at centre half.

If that's the case, he must be injured.
