A late decision will be made on the availability of Steve Cook and Chris Willock who were forced off in the second half of the Ipswich fixture, while Jack Colback will also be assessed. Meanwhile, Morgan Fox is available for selection.

This game is a must win to kick off all them home games.

Calling any game of ours "must win" is the biggest kiss of death there is... I'd estimate our win rate in fixtures deemed as "must win" is something like 5%.

It's just another home game half-way through a 46 game campaign. A game we should expect to get something from but cannot take anything for granted.

Didn't we smash them 5-0 one New Year's Day after they had clearly been on the pop the night before? Hopefully they're out singing in the Valleys tonight.

Heart says start well create chances win the game.

Head says defensive #### up 1-0 down lose game

This month will define our season in terms of both position and signings we need a win 5 games without one we need a run of victories with all games at home in Jan

I think we will be down mathematically by mid march. It will be so tough to sign a proven goalscorer. I hope the owners give the manager funds otherwise what was the point of changing manager.

We will win this by the odd goal

Virtually impossible to be relegated in Mid-March when there are still 24pts to play for. Even the most diabolically awful teams aren't mathematicall done for until 4ish games to go.
It was only 6 weeks or so ago some nutters on here thought a promotion push was on the cards but, in fairness to them, we have a 1st XI that can occasionally click and give any team in this division a bloody nose.
Our problem is not the lack of a goal scorer, it's the lack of attacking intent in the team - this is a tactical and mental issue that can be addressed by the manager and doesn't require any funds.
Get on the front foot against Cardiff, don't buckle if we concede, keep at it for 100mins and always look to move forwards with intent and let's see where we are at 5pm.

Agree yet again they can’t all be bad players just get a set and play your hearts out if we lose we lose but let’s go down fighting and hold your heads up

RIP Anne

RIP Anne - 81 years old, good innings, and to pass while watching your team is not too shabby.

Anything we get from now until Feb is a bonus, our season is going to be decided by our business during this window. All we need to do is stay within a couple of good games of whoever is 19th, 20th and 21st and we can do it.

If we do poor business, given last few games post the initial Marti bounce being so tricky, we'll need a miracle to stay up.
