RichSheffWeds Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Burton will be up for it on Saturday. Big club in town. They will be physical, just the type of situation Clough will love. Unless we are 100% on our game and ready for a battle we will get beat. It's the sort of game where we have been turned over time and time again over the years.

TheEnchanter Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 If we start like we usually do we'll probably lose this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Burton exactly the opposition having a giant comes in handy for. All depends on Fletcher's knock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markowski77 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Should put in a cheeky little bid for Jackson Irvine, put his mind all over the place....withdraws from the match day squad...sorted then an steam roller burton think we did it to Bolton a few seasons back with mark Davies, and the transfer didn't go through in the end haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly type of player could use with no Lee in contention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call me negative but the likelihood of that away at Burton is slim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawrie Madden Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 If you didn't see them against Brum last Friday do yourself a favour and watch it if you can find it Burton were excellent We could be at our best and still lose to them it will be a very tough match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJMortimer Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Getting more than 3 shots on target would be a start. We've not done that in any of our last 9 league and play-off games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Animis Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I'm pleased we're playing them on Saturday not midweek. We're blowing hot and cold at the moment so who knows what's going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
