I'm assuming that O'Grady can't play against us?

Must win, build on this week and get ourselves into the mix at this early stage.

Can we demand that he does?
Fine, we'll just stroll up and take three points then. No need to break sweat, lads, don't go out there and bust a gut or anything...............................................

This sort of thing worries me also. Given that Burton have been quite tidy this season, I expect them to be a tough nut to crack on saturday.

Can't fault his effort but we have better in Murray and Hemed, I think he has done well for them though

I think the piss poor performance against Brentford will still be very fresh, can't see us underestimating them.
Ben Turner - who Bensgrandad was desperate that we sign.

Ignore this. It's an attempt to get in our heads and make us feel like we have already won. When done Nigel, your dad would be proud!

Looking forward to ticking off another ground but not so much to the match itself. Definitely going to be difficult.
Burton have shown themselves to be a tough team early on and you've got to think with so many injures / suspensions that this is a perfect proving ground for the fringe players who'll be coming into the squad; up against pundits promotion contenders, at home.

I think Tommy Elphick is one away from a suspension himself.
Meanwhile, it's not as bad for Burton as they might think. One of the ineligible is O'Grady, and, enthusiastic as he is, I doubt they'll be massively weaker for his absence.
Another is Kyle McFadzean, the former Crawley defender, who is- putting it nicely- a little bit sub-par at this level. Lumbering oaf of a defender. They must have a reasonable replacement for a man of his limited abilities.

No its written in the rules about loans or in the loan agreement that a player cannot play against his parent club. I do seem to remember that it has happened in the past.
