TrickyTrotter Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 In Expect Forrester, Iredale, Ashworth, Maghoma, Bod & Dan to start with Mendes Gomez on the bench. 2-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanderlust Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 (edited) They're sitting 4th in the National League above the likes of Rochdale, Halifax and Oldham but have had some mixed results recently and were battered 5 nil away at a resurgent Southend last week but won their last one. Their team seems to be a mixture of young players who been at "bigger clubs" and a couple of old heads like defender Richard Stearman (now 36) who's played in the Prem. Sadly we won't be seeing a return of our own Connor Hall who they've sent out on loan. Their goalkeeping coach is Kevin Poole. Moors have a decent following in National League terms - usually get 1100 + and have already sold out the club's coach travel so should be bringing a few. Wondering what team Evatt will pick for this one? Edited October 30 by Wanderlust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that Evatt has been knocked out of the FA Cup in the first round in the last 6 seasons (here and Barrow) you'd think he'd be tempted to do just that. But I don't think he will.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 30 Site Supporter Share Posted October 30 Find it bonkers that folk need a ticket. I know it's all about data these days, but for once, just allow POTD, so if folk are a bit undecided, they can make a decision late on and not need to piss about.

To be honest it’s pay on the day in a different guise. Last couple of cup games I’ve made a last minute decision to go - dead easy to just buy on your phone an hour before. Surely over a year on and after a 35k of us going to Wembley the extreme large majority of us are members? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolton va va Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 In, slumming it in ESL. It's a free hit...lose & we can concentrate on the league,we're not going to win the cup but have a realistic chance of promotion......draw & it's a new ground & a chance of some TV money......win & it's Whitby away in the next round, best fish & chips in the country.

I know where you're coming from, but you can imagine a bunch of blokes maybe having a beer of a Friday night, or even Saturday lunchtime. Suddenly one pipes up- shall we go down, only a tenner on the door. Aye. Or shall we go down, but before we do, we've got to order our tickets. A different mindset. Especially if it's last minute before someone's availability is confirmed. Maybe it wouldn't make any difference, but on a low key game like this, maybe it would.

If we draw there a chance the replay will be on TV, that would bring back painful memories, but I'd rather we were in the draw for the 2nd round than not. It looks like the club are only currently selling tickets in the middle 2 blocks of ESL and WSL, that's very tinpot and as with the opening of only 1 stand for the league cup, it sends a strong signal to fans that the club aren't treating this game with a lot of respect.

More that we’ve been so unlucky with injuries and a replay will bring another fixture in a period where we have a few midweek games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I’d love to bump that pizza cup off but we’re already through so that’s an additional game now, but yeah injuries can happen in training too for me I’m just focused on the league no better chance than this season for me no distractions well 2 cups anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
