League one forever Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 We were poor after our last good away performance. If we want to push on in the new year we need pick up massively at home. I obviously want the win, but such is our form at home I’d take the draw to keep building momentum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disjointed Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Without being disrespectful to Harrogate, this is exactly the type of home game we need to win if we have any pretensions of making the play offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've usually been poor at home after every good away performance. If were going to threaten then I think we need 6 points from the next 2 games.

the_mighty_bosh Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 They have the worst home record in the league but their away record is one of the best, so they probably go into the game as favourites. My brother watched them beat Exeter away. He was disappointed with Exeter's performance especially after beating Tranmere 5-0 the Saturday before and said that Harrogate were a decent non-league team, not much quality in their side but tough to break down. I'd go for a slight change of approach for this game. Lawlor Jombati Clarke Piergianni CBJ (or Barnett if needed) Bahamboula Ntambwe McCalmont Keillor-Dunn McAleny Rowe It's quite a flexible lineup that could easily change to 4-5-1 or 4-3-3 if needed. DKD deserves another start after a goal and 2 assists on Saturday, and if Rowe is out then I'd go with Grant and bring Dearnley on late on.

disjointed Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 More than ever Kewell needs to find the right team and tactics, we are within touching distance of the top 7, go into the new year on a high, morale and team spirit seems higher than it has done for a good while.

Paul br Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 I was watching the way the squad celebrated the goals against Newport The spirit is there and improving In my opinion this is the best squad we’ve had for years And I’m excited to watch them again I think we will beat Harrogate providing we’re not like rabbits in the headlights as at Walsall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeP Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Fair play to the club for doing this "since the news that supporters won't be back" for this fixture: Nice touch, and not something I thought we'd see under these owners. Maybe they're learning/getting good advice at last.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great touch by the club but if HK thinks the side will play better when the fans are in he needs to watch some previous highlights and turn the main stand volume up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Branston Pickle Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Really hope he shows a bit of tactical flexibility and tries a different system out, ideally with two up front. If he can find a winning formula at home too they'll be right up there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latics22 Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I dont see why we cant set up the same way. If theh set up to play away too, it might be a dull 0_0. instead of drawing away and winning are home we do the opposite and go up simples.

L1onheartNew Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 On the back of my 4-2 half time call at Newport, I am going with 12-1 to us. The opening goal will be from a back pass from Clarke which forces Lawlor to hit it into the arm of the onrushing Muldoon, whereupon it hits the post and rebounds onto Garrity's thigh and into the roof of the net as he tries to clear in the third minute. The rest is just battering them. Happy boxing day everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
