Looking forward to this, even though it is a major banana skin for a young team. It'll be interesting to see who he plays in central midfield, we could really do with some steel in there to replace Bigi.

Yeah there should definitely be a stream going somewhere.

Any idea how many we've sold?

We can't afford another season of going out of every cup competition early. We should play our strongest possible team, but, actually, that team looks OK. I don't think Lawton is fit enough yet and Bigi is suspended. Thomas deserves a run out and as do both K-E brothers.

With recent form suggesting we could have a run at the playoffs i'd like to get rid of this cup malarkey. A chance to play a different 11 and see where it takes them perhaps?

What bollocks. We're nearer the bottom 3 than the top 6. We need a cup run to try and reinvigorate some interest in the team.

I would expect MV to play a 4-3-3 formation, & with both Page & Bigirimana missing I would expect something like;
Burge
Ricketts Willis, Turnbull, Harries,
Stevenson, Rose, Reid,
Lameiras, Agyei, Sordell,
Bench; from; Charles-Cooke, Dion Kelly-Evans, Devon Kelly-Evans, Finch, Tudgay, Lawton, Haynes, Jones, Evans, Wright, Maycock.
Despite some weird & wonderful cup exits in the past, I'd hope we have enough to beat Morecambe,

Personally I would play our strongest side available and round pegs in round holes

----------------Burge
Sterry - willis- Turnbull - Haynes
-------rose-Stevenson-maycock (Lawton not fit)
-lamieres--Sordell--Reid

Bench: RCC, Ricketts, mcbean, Jones, tudguy, Devon Kelly-evans, Dion kelly-evans

DKE in for Sterry if Newcastle won't let him play.

Didn't realise that. Who'd the other academy midfielder, Maycock?

Bigi is suspended, Sterry & Agyei can't play. CT say Page is suspended but I wonder when parent clubs say if they can play or not? Otherwise I guess the suspension would carry over to the Scunthorpe game as the JPT Checkatrade comp have their own disciplinary rules this season.

Andre Wright can play though .

With 5 wins 1 draw and 1 defeat in the last 7 you say we need to invigorate interest in the team?!
We don't need this kind of cup distraction with our squad. It will hurt us in the long run. I want us to play a different 11, experiment, see what we have that could be used in the league assault. McBean for example?
It's so important we protect our squad from injuries and suspensions if we are to maintain recent results and get to the playoffs. Based on recent form that is easily achievable too. We have a tough set of games coming up in the league, we must be shrewd in how we go about things.

We need the Income from a decent run.
We've seen the benefits of minimum disruption to the 1st eleven.

It's my view that there is a lot to be said for momentum and a winning mentality. Only absolutely necessary changes for Sunday required.

I don't think we should make wholesale changes but at the same time I agree that we need to protect squad eg Rose

We've got a few coming back from injury, seems sensible not to risk anyone. The loanees are pretty much all unavailable. So there's space there. You can always have the likes of Rose and Jones on the bench in case it looks like we need them. Then again, if it's a choice of a midfield of Lawton, Stevenson, Maycock that's probably too much. Could go 442 I suppose.

Problem is bigis suspended, ghadzev and McCann are injured, which leaves only Rose as the only central midfielder who's not a teenager. He will have to start on Saturday unless injured.

On another note, I've noticed a few sticking lawton in, but hes made just one 60 minute appearance in the u23s after being out with a serious injury for over a year. Hes nowhere near ready to come into the first team squad

No, we were woeful for the first hour playing playing 442. We need to stick with the system that's working.
