Views from the Match Thread ahead of kick-off:
berksimps: “Cheapest away trip to Crewe we have ever had: our own chairs, food, beers and no diesel cost. Looking forward to seeing who is who, and witnessing the start of MApp’s cunning plan.”
JT_LCFC: “Interesting to see if Palmer and Morton come straight; or do they get a taster on Tuesday with Saturday in mind.
With no fans and incentive of gate money, it’s pretty much an extended pre-season today.”
Scotimp: “Pretty sure Ross will be in goal today, unless the WBA pair have been here longer than anyone is letting on. Ross has done nothing wrong in pre-season and looks a pretty solid keeper – he deserves to play.”
