Score predictions for tonight?

I'm going to go for a 3-1 Blues.

Ranger, Cox & Wright to score
 
Looking forward to this - love a game under the floodlights at Roots Hall! And, being an evening game, no Junior Blues duties today!
 
Champions League on telly, Tuesday night... we'll do well to hit 6k. When we played Oxford on a Tuesday at the same time last year it was well under that IIRC.

5,593 in fact.

Let's just hope for the same result as that Oxford game.
 
Attendance won't be helped by the trains not running. Me and my mate are coming down on the c2c line which means a proper dash off at full time.
 
White for Kyprianou would be my only change. I assume the only reason he didn't start on Saturday was that he wasn't 100% after his injury? If he's 100% fit he has to start as he's been one of, if not the best player for us so far this season.
White and Ferdinand is a recipe for disaster in my opinion, they are both good players but it gives us 2 very slow centre backs that any pacy striker will easily be able to exploit. Kyprianou isn’t the finished product but I think he should keep his place until Kiernan is fit for that reason.
 
Not that I wish injury on someone but a spell out the side for Ferdinand wouldn't be the worst thing. Fleetwood's first goal on Saturday is embarrassing. It's literally been pinged from the kick off. I can't get my head around why he was so badly out of position from a KO

Seven seconds - away?!
 
They are not scoring and not really creating chances either so I think you should win this if you can avoid the dreaded 0-0 where you dominate. They are a team that can blow hot and cold but the lack of decent forwards should allow you to grab the three points. Jut don't give them a soft goal to hold on to.

My First Game tonight of the season Trains from Wickford into Victoria are running every 20 minutes

All day Drinking starting at 2pm :-) in Southend

Add 3 to the count as we buy on the day ( tonight )

Phil I expect another 4 Goals tonight please :thumbsup:

As already said night games at the Hall can be special ones after scoring 4 goals :winking:
 
Same team we need consistent side to boost confidence

Yep, that team looked like it gelled really well and Kyps is growing with Ferdy's experience alongside him. Much like Thommo did last season.

All in all, there's no reason to change anything.

Looking forward to tonight. My first league game of the season.:thumbsup:
 
I don't know why But I have a feeling It will be a high scoring game tonight

I will go for 4-1......

Is White 'very slow'? Is he much slower than Thompson was last season?

If White doesn't start and he's fit it's a real kick in the balls for him imo.

Yep, I agree with that. Prior to injury he was our best defender. Maybe it's a sign that the squad is getting stronger with injuries done with. Who will PB drop out of the midfield to accommodate Kightly for example?
