Yes I would. Just going off previous and what Jim has said. Maybe he will start tonight and rest him Saturday. Or play him tonight and Saturday and rest him next Wednesday. We'll soon know.
Funnily enough we haven't played many Sat/Tue/Sat league sequences at all. The one that stands out is Boston a, York a, Aldershot h and EEL started all 3 and had a nightmare at York.
No I agree. So are Carlisle's forwards and Forest Green. Unfortunately Jim has already pre warned us that the squad will be used in this busy schedule and he won't start EEL in all 3.
Got a feeling Hogan might start tonight. Think EEL will be saved for Carlisle/Forest Green. One good thing about these rearranged midweek home games is the travelling involved for the away team. Southend travelled on the day last week and Maher thought it affected their energy as the game wore on. Presumably Boreham Wood will do similar - any advantage we will take at this stage of the season.
Obviously if we were fans of another club and a team were scoring winners in the 94th and 90th mins we'd probably be saying the same. It's nice to hear nice things being said all the same.
Watching the highlights today shows the winning goal in full and I think its an indication how you can play faster passing attacking football - it really is a brilliant goal. Allarakhia has a throw in to Perry, crossfield pass to EEL, he passes it right to Gordon, Gordon plays a beautiful floated ball to Pritchard, Pritchard knocks it down to Dieseruvwe, Dieseruvwe plays it back to Perry, Perry fires a quick ball into Gilmour who controls it brilliantly, h Gilmour plays it through to Dieseruvwe, Dieseruvwe plays a wonderful pass through to Pritchard, Pritchard rounds Ndi with brilliant footwork and lays a wonderful near post cross to Gilmour who's continued his run to finish. It's a thing of beauty.
I don't think some of us will ever be confident until we win something - I was dreading it last night when the singing corner started 'we are top of the league' with 3 mins of injury time left! 🫣
Yes we can only look at us and York at the moment. Certainly until either one of us slips up and drops off the pace. Those 2 late goals by Dale last Wednesday and last night must have felt like a dagger in their hearts. They could've been 2 points ahead of us now and not 2 points behind. All eyes will be on Solihull now on Saturday to see how they respond.
Cheers. Yes we created next to nothing in the 2nd half - your keeper having nothing to do till the 90th minute (lucky for you) but I did say at ht our bench could be the difference and that's how it panned out. When you can bring on Allarakhia,Dieseruvwe and Pritchard they created that 1 chance we needed. Good luck - you are a tough nut to crack as we found out last season - you should make the play offs if you can get a keeper.
Joe Pritchard - you beauty! Yes its not all about one person but his contributions last Wednesday in the 94th minute and last night in the 90th has almost singlehandedly gained us those 4 points extra we need to be above York going into that final game.
Such an important 'statement' win. We've not done it at home with Jim and this team so that's a massive moment. It was our first game in hand too so to win it is so important because apparently points on the board are much better than games in hand - well we have 3 more points on the board and still 2 games in hand on York so stick that in your pipe and smoke it!
