Not sure how you get Forss, Mcatee, Gale and Cissoko In there! Could well be half each for Gale and Cissoko.

Can't see it being much different to that.

Randall not even an option for the 2nd XI currently.  No doubt he'll get a pointless last 25 minutes. 

Just shows to strength of the squad, now all we have to do is field the right line ups on match day.

Might give a couple of youngsters a start in this game.

Yeh I was thinking that. It would be this game rather than Swindon.

Would be nice to see Hogan and Ritchie again 

Armchair & watch on TV. Part timer.

Simons for Sheehan, seeing as Simons won't play at Swindon.

Good point - can see him starting or getting game time for that reason

Yes but Sheehan will be playing at Mansfield so he won't play at Swindon so he'll play v Bradford 😀

I'm joking, who knows.

Actually Gale might still be suspended for this after his sending off a couple of games ago?

Cissoko and Warren then 

Simons might be suspended for this, not sure 

Just to clear up Gale serves the final match of his sending off vs Rotherham as for Simons I think he’s out for Swindon not this one as this trophy has its own suspension and card specific rules 

Need to keep the momentum going now in these cup competitions but with some of the fringe players/players coming back from injury playing.

We've not lost in our last 5 league games and took 11 points from Huddersfield away, Cardiff at home, Port vale at home, Bradford at home and Luton away.

With exception of Port Vale, all of those teams will be in and around the top 6 and some of them are promotion favourites.

To not lose against any of them and get over 2 points per game in those fixtures is very encouraging.

Keep the momentum going now.

Very similar for me too . Id swap Sheehan for Morley . Sheehan is up to speed , doesnt need the minutes . Forss behind Dalby and Cissoko for Gale as he is still suspended.

Simons for Erhahon as he is suspended for swindon . 

Bench of TSL , Erhahon , Randall  , Warren , Toal + 2 Young uns.

Come On You Whites!!!

interested to see if our squad is as strong as people make out

More a case of seeing if our back ups are better than Bradfords back ups. 
 

They have a few like Sarce who have missed games due to injury so either won’t be risked or need the minutes depending on your opinion. 
 

They have Plymouth on Saturday and we all know what happens if Sarce gets rested for that one 😂. They have a decent run of fixtures coming up so could see them not being too bothered about this one 

 

Wow, looking at that run they could be out of sight by the time the New Year comes, you’d fancy them to win all of those.

our run up until Stevenage away is also favourable

The same Bradford City who have won one game since september?

I'm going for them failing to win 3 of them, especially Orient away but a couple of Plymouth, Reading and Wigan too.

Their last 2 cup games have been defeats at Doncaster and Cheltenham so I'm guessing they won't be taking tonight too seriously other than the "getting minutes" thing.

With a 12.30 KO at Plymouth on Saturday they probably need to start their journey in the morning!

aye

we've only won 1 away and I fancy us to win all our games in December and Jan 1st

in fact up to Stevenage away, where I'd take a draw

Haven't stevenage scored 1 goal in their last 5 games or somet like that.

dunno, but they're still above us in second

if we're above them by the time that fixture comes around, I'll expect a win there too

I'd fancy us at Stevenage. Big fixture pile up for them. Wycombe away I'd take a point. Mansfield and Donny need to be 3 points for top 2 aspirations ideally.
