[Keith]

The gulf between the two sides *should* mean we go through comfortably. Perhaps counterintuitively, being thumped on Saturday could be a good thing for us, as any risk of complacency will be taken out of the equation, we *know* we are capable of conceding stupid goals *and* we have a point to prove.

Even if Cole isn't back, I expect us to do a professional job and go through.

0-3

But if we're anything less than professional, we'll get our backsides spanked live on national TV.

[redrobo]

The difference in ability should see us through depending on our attitude on the day.

However we can't underestimate how Buxton will give everything to put one over on an EFL club.

Could well be a draw but we've often struggled against so called lesser teams so a draw for me would be an excellent result but it's going to be a new experience for some of our younger players especially our midfield and it is how they handle it.....

If Cole is back then our chances of a win should be improved and if we can get Obika on the bench to come on for say the last 30 if things are not going to plan then we should be strong enough to see us through BUT it isn't going to be a walk in the park by any means.

[black morse]

Can we score 3 or more goals? With cole possibly but without Cole doubtful.

1-3 and on to round 3.

[ianmcm]

I have no idea at all how good Buxton might be. Fourth in their league suggests they're OK however so 1-2.

[vvm]

They're also 4 leagues below us. Of course there's always the potential of a banana skin but we should have way too much for them and comfortably put a few past them, hopefully it could inject a bit of confidence into our players and help a few find their shooting boots ahead of an important few weeks.

Good chance to get some minutes in Obika's legs too. Not sure how much of an issue the 3G pitch will be though, if worst comes to worst then take a draw and finish them off at the Mazuma.

I'll go 3-0 the shrimps. Slow start but get 1 before half time and then a couple more in the second half.

[SouthernFriedShrimp]

I'm going for a 2-4 away win for The Shrimps.
A couple of embarrassing mistakes in defence, but enough up front to get through 'comfortably'.
COYS!

[Redalert1970]

Buxton are selling more home tickets for home fans tonight as they have been granted a larger capacity

[paulshrimp]

2-1 Shrimps win

[Bristol Shrimp]

We're too strong. 4-0 win.

[AndyReifman]

Nervous, but we need a win and preferably a comfortable one.

4-1 to the Shrimps.

[cragbankshrimp]

4 - 1 win. No clean sheet.

[thefactsman]

1-1, with a replay at the Mazuma 10 days after

[Sakhalin Shrimp]

I can’t see us keeping a clean sheet so I’ll go with a 1-2 win

Mrs Sak goes 0-3

[Redalert1970]

Cole not trained all week according to Robbo so doubt he will be playing at Buxton

[simmy]

3-1 Win

[captain sparkle]

My Ten Bob's on a 2 -1 win.

[Westgate Wanderer]

3-1 to the Shrimps and onward to another third round fixture!

[marky No.1]

7-0 win

Why not, I will go 4.1 as i can see them scoring

[Wild Bill]

Tough afternoon. 3-1 Morecambe after a few scares early on.

[Alan]

Buxton 2 v 3 Morecambe

[jbc.shrimp]

Bucks 1- Shrimps 2. Although the banana skin is always there to slip on.

[Phil Anderer]

As long as we approach the game with the right attitude we should win, so I'll go 4-2.
Mrs A, after saying last night we'd lose, now says 3-2 win.
