Subs bench would be…
Shepherd
Dovin (state of injury recovery unimportant)
All the contractors who did the work at Ryton - mainly the electricians as all the other trades too thick to understand the rules of football.

Clive defo more of a winger, but I like the inclusion of Punjabi MC, give Wright more of a rest.

He's one of our own. Your team genuinely beats Russell Slades' first choice XI.

Russell Slade would have picked something pretty similar to myself for a league game imo.

Play the reserves, not too fussed if we get knocked out.

Shouldn't Dr.Claire be at the back given how defensive things always seem to be around her?

Well at least she can have a chant:

She's in your head
In your head
Doctor. Roberts.
Doctor. Roberts.

You're not an electrician by any chance?

 

[Paxman II]

I said on here a month or so ago we should concentrate on the league and get out of the cup as quickly as possible. I'm still of that opinion, perhaps even more so now. Keep our eye on the bigger prize.
We will field a side full of players not getting many minutes, from KHayden, Allen, Wolfenden, latti, Brau, Wilson, and so on. If they come through it, good for them, they get to go again.
The rest are on training and in the classroom as we work to gear up for the push to the premier league.

 

[wingy]

Will have had a week's rest. If lampard decides to go strong I'll back it. If he rotates that's obviously fine too

Not sure if FA has rules about how many changes allowed?

5 is it from the previous game?

Have to start the next one,think FGR DID it earlier in the season and then subbed them pretty much instantly.

 

[long way home]

I want to see Perry given a go at LB or left side of a 3 or CB. Same as Andrews we have got to know what they offer. Not sure he would give Shepard a run but definitely time to rest some of the starters.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Still better than the Torp one!

 

[edgy]

Recall all the loanees, play them and send them back out again?

 

[David O'Day]

Can't play for 3 teams in a season

 

[David O'Day]

Surely if you are picking Austin you play him at his best position of RB? Could probably still get forward quicker than Lati

There's no rule in the FA Cup, we can change all 11 if we want.

 

[edgy]

Said in jest, but send them back to the same club. Loophole.

I’m not sure I’m fit enough to play after overdoing the Christmas food and drink

I remember after Barry left us and ended up at Place he was charged with running a " house of ill repute" ie a brothel.

 

[curly_tom]

I disagree with all of you. Play the first 11. This is winnable. Would be good for confidence and fitness. A cup run is fun and can go alongside the league run. All out to win!!

Well while it's fun look how the Cup run effected the team during that cup semi final run especially after the defeat.

Wilson
KKH Woolf Kitching Brau
Allen (?) Eccles
Andrews
Esse Wright YMH

Excited to see that front 3 if we can get the deals done in time.

 

[MikeyMoo]

Can Lampard play? Bring back McCallister and Butcher for this game as well then...

" Blown the league" come on,we are 8 points ahead of third with a better goal difference.Everyone in the top 14 with the exception of Stoke has played at least 1 more or in some cases 2 home games more than us.We are having our bad spell at the moment 2 home games to come, great chance to get rid of these blues.If we were 8 point behind with our form then maybe.
Enjoy the ride.

That’s actually quite an exciting team that I’d like to see.

There is an argument for either resting Kitching or giving that partnership a run out before Leicester

Stoke P-P Coventry
Rescheduled for another date.
My forecast anyway
