WM are saying we're playing 451 but it's clearly 442 with either Deeney or Nichols up front with Rickets.

Two of my sons have just rung from the ground to say that the umbrella that they were carrying was not allowed in the ground, rather helpfully they were allowed to leave it at the turnstiles where it would be kept under cover so it wouldn't get wet :shock: About 100 fans so far and it's very windy.

There you go, who says that WM is dull radio.

I would be more than happy with a draw in this one. 1-1

That'd be my guess too. Probably Nicholls up front. But does that mean Deeny will be on the left? DD said Sonko wasn't ready for that on Saturday.

Who would have thought 10 years back that Yeovil would have been fielding a side with names like this in them!!!

How times change eh!

We want to watch out for Zoltan - could cause us problems!

I get this lovely picture of a whole group of Yeovil 'yokels' standing round the umbrellas, scratcing their heads and saying "What this be then? Some kind of witchcraft from them City folk! Best not touch 'em - they looks like they might open up and gobble us"

I'm thinking I made the right choice by staying at home in the warm. Wind, rain, an uncovered terrace and a ban on umbrellas (not that I have one). Not a nice combination!!

Their description of one: "big bloke, long white coat with white hood" rings a few bells - bet he is bold too!

Fantastic performance so far. Brilliantly not to concede in the 1st half absolutely brilliant. Who Knows now, we have got the wind behind us, maybe we can go and win this game. It would be a great result if we did.

Most of our fans have moved undercover. There's still five idiots behind the goal though.
