    Yep, can't see both teams scoring. Drew with them goalless three times over the last few years and can't see it not happening again.

    He clearly means beating teams 19th in the table who will obviously be in a relegation battle.

    This is a game Burton have to win. As do we.

    Unfortunately it's our own fans who revel in the "teams like Barnsley" attitude.

    If we can't win there tonight it'll be very concerning. Burton have a goal difference of minus 20.

    Despite the TV spunking over the fact that us and Wednesday had only won 1 in 8 and 1 in 7. We have only lost 1 in our last 5.

    We need to go there positive and get straight into them.

    I was giving their coach the benefit of the doubt, but I've just listened to his interview, in which he says "we should be beating teams like Ipswich and Barnsley"

    I'd given him the benefit of the doubt for such a comment about us, as after all were down there and not pulling up any trees.

    10th placed ipswich though? I don't see how they "should be beating" Ipswich by any stretch of the imagination.
