James and Sea up front. Zanzala boot boy where he will be most useful
Just say no to VAR :sentoff:

I would be surprised if Sea starts on Saturday. In his post match interview after the Bradford match Cooper said he has barely trained in the last 4 weeks. Was evident after a bright ten minutes when he came on he was blowing out of his backside in the last five minutes of the game. Bench on Saturday for me last 20 minutes if needed

Harris up top, Marvelous news & You never know but Zans might just poach a few goals from this lads running or knock downs & Sea is returning slowly & should benefit also, Bad news Re Flash but on we go.

Hope we have been practicing pressurized penalties all week, just in case.

Sounds like they may be missing a few due to injury and Corona :

Their manager seems confident they have done enough scouting to be able to easily beat us. Can’t wait for the upset

To be fair if any manager had been scouting us over the last couple of weeks - all of them would be pretty confident

10 players missing training but only four of them with Covid. Surely that should be the only stipulation for calling games off.

I've read the game won't be postponed as the FA have said all games MUST be played and if that means fielding youth teams then so be it. Don't know how much truth is in that but I can't wait for tomorrow. Should be a good day

Quote......... "While clubs can cancel league games if they have fewer than 14 first team players, the FA has reportedly told clubs they must play cup ties this weekend – using youth team players if necessary."

Helik being out for them is good for us. He's probably their best defender.

Who actually said or wrote this Rtw6095?

Having just done a quick search, I found this - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sport ... ekend.html which, if true, is encouraging.
