Our squad is small too. We had our two best strikers (Holt and Tyson) suspended on Saturday, Tyson still has another game left on his ban, Jack Lester will now get a 2 match ban because he picked up his 10th yellow on Saturday as well... but at least Holt's back so it will probably be Holt and Agogo unless CC's Dobie fetish recurs!
Since CC let all the deadwood go (Harris, Padula, Eaden, Thompson, Gardner etc) and also let Southall go back to Gillingham we'd have to field kids to make the numbers up, despite all this we still have Gary Holt. All we need is to play our best team.
Even if we have been rubbish for 2 months, to remain one point off 2nd isn't that bad, Scunthorpe look to be running away with it, but even then, we were 7 points clear at one stage so they can be caught.
Looks to be between Forest, Oldham, Yeovil and Brizzle for the 2nd spot though.
