Rest key players (Grimes, Rushworth, Kitching, MVE, Sakamoto, Rudoni)
Play those that need the fitness (EMC, Brau, Torp)
Play second string who aren't likely to play otherwise (Simms, Raphael, Allen)

Might as well save everyone the hassle and forfeit then.

Play the subs from Saturday (apart from sicknote of course.)
Obikwu to get a run out from the bench. Andrews and Allan in CMF Bidwell at CH. Raphael to get 90 minutes, with KKH and Brau at WB's
We could even go 2 up front, (Wright and Simms) and actually try to score a goal.
Wouldn't that be nice.

I’m not the one saying we should throw a game. I think it’s dumb and always have and if we’re going to do it we shouldn’t charge people to watch.

What is throwing a game about playing a team like
Wilson
KKH Thomas Kitching Brau
Allen
Torp Andrews
Raphael Simms EMC

And if Rushworth gets injured in a league cup game you'd be the first to whinge.

No I wouldn’t. It’s always been a stupid argument that lead to its full conclusion would mean players don’t train either.

Yes you would.

Yeah well you’re a smelly poo poo head.
What is with the six year old arguments from you recently?
Check my posting history. I never think we should field weakened teams for cups. I think it’s pointless.

Squad for me. Personally think it’d be good to blood a couple youngsters on to see where they are at.
Wilson
KKH - Thomas - Perry/Kitching - Brau
Allen
Torp - Andrews
Rapha - Simms - EMC

We have enough in reserve to beat Luton .
Simms ……is this “ not playing “ due to another payment to the toffee’s ?
Unfortunately, we need our strikers being match fit & hungry , so sorry Doug , pay them their monies & let’s get our season started .

Rushworth
KKH-Thomas-Kitching-Brau
Allen-Andrew’s
Torp
Raphael-Simms-Hadji
Think the new defence needs games to gel. With Sheaf and Eccles injured wouldn’t risk Grimes so give Andrew’s a chance with Allen.
Start with Torp but replace with Rudi on the hour.
Want to see Raphael at some point so rest Saka. Still feel Simms is better than Asante. Was disappointed with EMC and we need Hadji up to speed so start with him but replace with Ephron as the game goes on.
Pre season and Hull we haven’t looked on it. Appreciate it’s a cup game but think we need to start building confidence whilst protecting key players and building fitness.

It's not 2000 anymore. It's a squad game it's a long season, and the reality is we don't know our best team yet other than 'on paper'.
How do any players ever break through if you never actually play them.
It's such a weird take on football in this day and age. Squad rotation is key.

Bassette in the squad or is he completely done?

Wilson will play I think
KKH and bidwell too
Not sure much we can change at CB. Id like to see wright and Raphael play. For me it's:
Wilson
Bidwell
Kithcing
Thomas
KKH
Sheaf (if not fit then grimes)
Torp
Rudoni
Raphael
Simms
Wright
Strong team still with a bit of rotation too

I genuinely don't think Wright is fit.
This early on keep as much of the first team in as possible to give them game time together. Bench mix of first team squad and youngsters so you've got options to blood youngsters if it's going well or keep the team strong if it's not. Luton aren't a walkover and we play a weakened team they will beat us.
