Home advantage obviously
Timely boosts of Lunt et al returning
Best coach in the comp vs “pub landlord”
Much better form over last couple of games
Minns confirming you’re galvanised and ripping in

That’ll do for starters.

Stat from Radford in the HDM about our response to conceding a try - in 6 out of 7 games we’ve conceded another within 5 minutes. Not good.

If we can't beat that lot with the team we have we may as well give up .The only thing that will beat FC on friday is attitude, get that right and its a comfortable win , get it wrong and its a narrow but embarrassing win for the dobbins.

Not been big headed but regardless of who they have in there squad if we play well we win simple as that IMO.

Big Head

been too to many derbies where both teams have gone in fav and had there arris kicked, yea where slight fav but its on there patch and there havnt beat us in ages, its a big game for them and beating us would be massive, saying that am hoping for 2 points but imo it will be close,

Rovers are Evens with 8 start - if we lose this are we worse than the 2016 side that had a terrible start, 6pts by the derby, but actually won this game 22-20.
If we lose then that's worse than 2016 and at that time I truly believe Radford was gone if we hadn't won that game.
Let's hope again we win and finish higher than 2016.

We SHOULD win, both on paper and circumstance. However, I've been an FC fan long enough to know that these are the games we usually go on to get spanked in. Can't wait!

Also seem vulnerable just before half time

Hadley out for four to six weeks.

Yeah just seen that. Been great this season

been our most consistent player imo, big blow, but hopefully just the 4 weeks
