Rotherham away in the Capital One Cup

[The Great Mass Debater]

We have been drawn away to Rotherham for anyone who didnt know

Wonder if I'll be able to get a ticket this time? Couldn't get one for the league game towards the end of last season, but surely an early cup tie against Rotherham will be more readily available?

Reserves will get sent out which in my opinion gives them a run out at most. I don't believe it proves much in terms of their chances of ousting the incumbent in their position. For instance, Ryan Bennet will probably play but even if he has a blinder and perhaps scores as well then what are his chances of ousting Martin or Bassong?

 

[GJP]

Slim to none. As are the chances of him having a blinder in the first place.

 

[It's Character Forming]

Yeah I imagine tickets easier to get than last season.

in recent years our reserves' performance in cup games has rarely done their first team chances any good!

 

[GJP]

But I do know what you're getting at.

Would like to see some of those who didn't appear on the opening day given a chance, maybe a team something like this:

Rudd​

Wisdom R.Bennett Turner Toffolo​

E.Bennett Odjidja O'Neil JoshMurphy​

Andreu​

Lafferty/RvW​

Subs: Kean Martin Thompson Dorrans JacobMurphy Loza Hooper

Can't see both Van Wolfswinkel or Lafferty being here by the time this game comes around. If they are both here I'd start one of them and have the other on the bench instead of Hooper, if they're both gone then I'd start Hooper up front.

But I do know what you're getting at.

So we might as well play the whole first team and give it a good go. The manager says some players are behind the others at this stage.
