    If Bobby starts this game after been rested against Wimbledon it is an outrage.

    Doyle
    Benn
    Wright
    Byrne
    Goodman
    Huntington
    Smallwood (Wadsworth if Walker still here)
    Oduor
    Walker (Wadsworth if gone)
    Oliver (Kavanagh if gone)

    That should be the 11.

    Its a pathetic cup game and we have a league campaign to consider. Are you really that sad you would risk senior players in this game so you can possbly go to Wembley while risking our promotion bid from the khazi?

    Prize money in total, including gates receipts money won’t even cover our rent costs

    Attendances are p1ss poor with zero interest

    Just not worth it when main goal is promotion

    Couldn’t see any more than 15k going to Wembley even if we got there, and that’s being generous

    I'd be very happy if we got there and took 15k.
    Most league 2 teams could only dream of that

    Like any game i hope we win but not to the detriment of anything else. Not worth risking any key players so get the fringe players in like Odour and Walker if they are still here.

    So try and win this by playing our strongest 11 then? You would risk injuried to key players?

    The strongest 11 could just as easily get injured in training.

    I would try to win the game!!!!!

    Its the same scenario with the big teams and the league cup, they play their fringe players and keep the most important players for the league and European competitions.

    I've decided to go to this one because I'm more Uber than you lot.

    I wonder if one of the other 50 that travel will let me share their medication.

    I would happily take 2 defeats on the bounce if we can go on another unbeaten run straight after.
    Saturday showed the risk of players getting injured.
    As good as GA thinks the squad is, it not good enough to cope with too many injuries, especially in defence and up top.
    Play as many kids as we can i say.
    The real prize is getting out of this league, not an afternoon out in a tin pot cup in that soulless bowl down sarfth

    I would not even go if it was at VP. Its time to scrap it
    If the PL teams want to get game time for their youngsters, stop signing hundreds of them and let these kids come through like they used to.
