Well time for our squad of players to show what they are made of and repay the travelling fans and DC.
So with Lockyer, Sweeney away on International duty and Clarke suspended we have some players who can stake a claim for the shirt.
Scunny are one of the better home sides in League One. We need to keep it tight and not concede early.

Last time we had Locks and Sweeney out we won 6-0 away at Northampton. Mayonnaise hasn't had a kick since - that'll teach him. Sadly part of my accy today is a scunny win.

Bench looks a bit weak but with three out it emphasises just how thin our squad really is.Byron Moore,Burn and Broom all feature.

42 minutes still not conceded. Mayo & Broadbean should maybe be given more game time.

After the goals we've been shopping lately I'll take a 0-0 final scoreline.

What's our formation 6-4-0? We don;t seem to have anyone challenging for the ball upfront.

Ellis back to deal with the arial threat and Gaffers & Nichols sucked back into mid-field?
