EFL Cup Thread 23/24

[BarraMatt]

Given the team we've got out tonight I think we are in for a pasting. Bolton have made 8 changes but still look strong.

 

[Master D]

Same for us. We've made 8 changes.

 

[The_Viking_Magpie]

Peterborough away. Another club in my long list of those I detest.

I'd like to see that list.

 

[WilsdenBantam]

I can’t be bothered losing to Accrington reserves tonight with a full strength team, don’t go all city on us tonight please and just win.

 

[Son of Cod]

Stags and Mariners starting fairly strong lineups by the looks of it. We're going quite attacking with a 4231 and have made 5 changes.

 

[ForzaCounty]

Sheff Weds fielding their first team vs our second string.

Gives them a sporting chance, I suppose

 

[masi51]

We’ll likely go close to full-strength against Judas’ Bolton tomorrow. We beat Blackpool last season as part of our great start and it added to the momentum, so I expect Wild will want to do the same again this year.

8 changes tonight...more than enough to deal with anything you tin pot team can put out

 

[Casey]

I dont think we want to win this competition.

9 changes from the starting line up from Saturday and only 5 on the bench.

Jed Brown (from the sidemen) on the bench.

Exeter look quite strong. We could be completely ripped a new one here.

Yikes that's a bit of a pisstake.

 

[Conker]

Not much changed in line up tonight but Bowery is back at left back obviously.

Why he’s keeping Aaron Lewis in midfield instead of slotting him in LB and not playing Maris or Boateng is anyones guess.

Sounds like you're battering us atm.

Yeah going off Twitter sounds like Mansfield should be 3 or 4 up already.

They putting in a cup final appearance

 

[PuB]

Gills 1-0 up

 

[Conker]

Don’t worry lads, exact same happened at Crewe and we managed to not win that.

 

[Conker]

I’m looking forward to Will Swan being fit, Oates is a good L2 player but doesn’t have the clinical edge like Swan,I think we will score a shedload again this season.

 

[Chris FGR]

Portsmouth should be honoured. They are the first and only club Tyrese Omotoye has ever scored against. Which is quite a record for a striker with over 40 career appearances. Who knows maybe that’s the first of many.

 

[WhiteRussian]

Eisa hit the bar. Is that as good as it's going to get.

and Swindon, why are you not beating those pish cvnts.

 

[1862]

This Notts - Lincoln game is quite pedestrian except for every 5 minutes someone tries to kill someone on the other team.

 

[ForzaCounty]

Paddy Madden wonder goal gives our reserves the lead at Hillsborough

The trophy engravers have been put on standby

 

[クレイグ]

Beating Accrington 1-0 at half-time.

Need him fit asap.

We’ve looked good tonight from what folk have said at the game, wish he’d fuck off with his fascination of playing bowery in defensive positions though.

 

[chief]

All over these.

1-0 Wigan FT.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

Been a good game, both goals came from defensive mistakes

 

[Chris FGR]

Two soft goals conceded tonight. Again.

Not played badly though.

 

[PuB]

2-0 Gills haha

What is this? We’re all over them

 

[1862]

I appreciate our commitment to insanity by having a centre back sent off and just not replacing him or moving anyone back

 

[PuB]

3-0 Gills!!!!!!

 

[Conker]

Need him fit asap.

Going off what I witnessed at Crewe and heard about tonight is we look very good and will create plenty of chances but miss too many, also a clear vulnerability at set-pieces something I hope Flint can improve us at.

 

[AnotherStagsFan]

Grimsby were terrible, made it easy for us tonight!
