    Your team may have been different in names, and ours the same team in names for the game at Bescot, but it certainly wasn't the same team in terms of confidence. O'Driscoll had sucked the life our of a talented, enthusiastic bunch of players, in a short space of time. Thankfully that confidence has returned, although it took a couple of weeks too long.

    I think there could be some goals, as our new philosophy is to go at teams, and you're not too different. We're heavily dependent on getting the first goal. If we get it, I fancy us to win, if we don't, there may be too much to claw back in the home leg, where we're not at our best usually.

    Our recent TV record is very good though.

    Away goals count in the play offs don't they.. So a clean sheet on Saturday could be a major plus.

    A 3 nil win would be nice but I can see it being more of a close affair. I'll say 1 nil to the reds.

    No, away goals don't count in the playoffs.

    Too close to call. Anything can happen and I have no expectations other than the lads turn up and give their all.

    Yeah I have gathered that now, I must be living in the 90's still lol.. shame really, 1 goal at their place would have certainly put this tie to bed.
