pinkeye Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Mine came earlier this week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leazes.ender Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 My standing ones came today. Despite the terrace holding 4000 I think we were only given 1800 for it so guessing we'll be shoved in one corner of it. Pub wise the ones talked about on the footballguide website are not bad having been in the cherry tree one before the FA cup game down there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest RowanB Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Because it seems our numbers might be a bit lacking for this game, how about we all decide on a pub to go to and make sure we go there, so we can at least try and create something close to the normal away day experience and maybe get a song or two going pre match? It's just I don't actually know anyone personally that's going to this game. Pleased there's a thread for it on here though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 They're coming thick and fast now! A toughy. I'd be very tempted to weaken up slightly, especially what happened to Shola and Jonas in the 2nd round. Krul R Taylor Colo Khizanishvili Kadar Geremi Butt Nolan LuaLua Ranger Loven Subs: Harper, Carroll, Taylor, Guthrie, Barton, Smith, Enrique. Or something similar. Give Kadar, Kru and LuaLua the runout, let Butt think he's needed again and give Lovenkrands the extra play he needs - seems quite off the pace atm. If we win, we win. If we don't, at least we don't suffer anymore key injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyn davies Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 can't afford to weaken up the quicker we get in a situation where we're got enough points asap, then perhaps weaken up a bit Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
QBG Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Its now that the penny really should drop that we should be bringing another 3 or 4 in on loan and looking at some free agents. The games are coming thick and fast. I'd play a weaker team, but still want a win to keep confidence up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 If we went with a weakened team and got put out of the cup I wouldnt really be bothered tbh. I would much rather have the week off so the lads can rest for our next league game. Tough one to call, we seem to be conceding more now so ill go for 2-1 to us.

Jayson Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Play as many youth team players/reserves as possible. Pointless risking injuries nor do we need a cup run & the players look to need a break. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw 'slightly' because Nolan, Geremi, Lovenkrands, Ranger, Taylor and Colo are all still in there. I've taken out the good ones though yeah Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I reckon with a team like that, we'll go 1-0 down, Hughton will throw on Guthrie, Carroll and Barton/Smith and we'll get it to 2-1; but it could end with another injury setback.

TRon Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Whatever the formation is, just keep Butt away from it and we'll win. I'll go the other way, play whoever you want but pick a formation that suits the players we've got. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 We'll get away with Kadar centre-back alongside either Taylor or Coloccini talking him through the game, but if it's Simpson & Kadar like with Huddersfield, I think we'll struggle.

colinmk Posted September 19, 2009 Share Posted September 19, 2009 Guthrie should start, get him properly sharp for the league. Would be tempted to rest Enrique and start Loven again in an attempt to get him match fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
