Think we will win tonight, very encouraging to see football played against Cambridge having totally lost the plot in recent weeks.

That said I can't trust MT to get the tactics right. Think we will win despite setting up poorly.
I can see a similar set up and adopt the tactics that has seen us most successful this season. However, if Barrow aren't playing ball and proving a tough nut to crack or we are simply looking ineffective, this is when the change of tactics etc should come into play. Something that hasn't happened in recent games such as Tranmere, Oldham, Walsall at home, Cheltenham etc and why we've thrown our chances of autos away. Poor adaptation and in game management by MT.

One thing I would like to see today is a decent run out for Kite.

But he's surely going to become a first string player?

I'm not sure it tells us much but here it is Indo:
1-10 4
11-20 10
21-30 7
31-40 10
41-50 7
51-60 3
61-70 6
71-80 9
81-90 6
91+ 2

Fifteen minute brackets is more revealing - we finish halves better than we start:
1-15 9
16-30 12
31-45 13
46-60 8
61-75 9
76-90 13
Hi Grecian in Cumbria - that makes at least two of us then!! (South Cumbria for me) - only 28 miles from Barrow, you any closer?

If Carlsberg did football clubs...

I agree with this. Long old slogs like this on a tough surface require getting a nose in front and then managing the game..
