| Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "We should thrash Oldham and the fact it's an "extra" game in midweek is neither here nor there. Or maybe it's not "here", but is "there" as it gives us the added advantage of playing against part-timers who are also playing their second game in a few days, and who've been at work all day.'"
The midweek aspect doesn't make a jot of difference to us for tonight's game. As you rightly say, if anything it plays to our advantage.
Where it does make a difference is against Batley on Sunday, where we will have had 4 days rest compared to Batley's 7. However you would hope the full time aspect of Bradford would be able to make up some of that gap, i.e. they can rest whereas the Batley lads will still be at work. |

Add to that we've a large squad that allows for rotation so fatigue should be mitigated to some degree |

We could do with no injuries to key personnel too - what with our long casualty list!

Batley's part time squad lists 31 names.
Of those, 5 have either not played at all or only played one, so effectively they pick from 26.
Of those, regulars Ainscough, Scott and Cowling are injured so they have available a squad of 23 part-timers against our 33 full-timers. Plus Moss. Plus now Charnock. So I don't think we have any "1 extra game" excuse, not really.

Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.

Ah, so they're out of practice and and have probably lost match fitness - it gets better and better for us. |

Plus these two:
"Walker replaces the injured Dale Ferguson, who picked up a knock in Cumbria"
"and Omari Caro miss out on the 17-man through injury."

I'd have rested Pitts and used Baile. Other than that, lets hope the game goes to plan and get O'Brien out of there ASAP.

Our commentary friend says Moss will be back for Batley.
So Maurice was right he'll be out for the season!
