We need to go there and park the bus five at the back and four in midfield just leave Vik running around up front, absolutely take the piss with time wasting from the first minute drying the ball for throw ins and passing it onto the next man to take, the sort of rubbish these teams are doing to us every week, goalkeeper needs to takes ages with everything no goalkeeper has ever had two yellow cards for time wasting as far as I know.


Absolutely strangle the life out of the game.


Lose three nil

Mass brawl erupts after Ecuadorian side have TWO goalkeepers sent off

I can’t see us strangling their attack, not without Fadz leading the defence. His presence is sorely missed. We’re not the best at shithousery, but I think if we frustrate them, close down, tight marking, we may be able to catch them on the counter.

If we turn up, 0-0 or 1-1. If we don’t, well, could be a bit of a hammering.

We need a mass brawl.

 

[Ann Proctor-Brown]

3-0 Burnley.

 

[Evo1883]

Will lose comfortably , like most teams there

 

[blunted]

No-one else has corroborated it.

He was booked against Wrexham. Thought one more he would be suspended. May be wrong

 

[Cata]

We need a mass brawl.

not sure we would win that with this squad

 

[lord_garrincha]

I was disappointed with our performance at home with Burnley and felt that we did not engage with them, in fear of getting a battering and gave them an easy afternoon.

Probably be something similar in a 0-2 defeat.

Sheaf is one yellow away from a 2 match suspension, Bidwell I think had 7 so 3 to go.

 

[SkyblueDad]

When we got embarrassed all those years ago at Sutton United our next league game was Norwich City away who I think were top or very near of division one, coincidently Sutton had been drawn away to Norwich in the next round. We won 2-1,as they say footballs a funny old game, so I’ll go for a 2-0 City win.

Don't think FA Cup yellows count in league, but reds do... could be wrong....

Yes i was at both games and speedie scored the winner at norwich.

Unfortunately they do, the FA Cup is under FA jurisdiction like league games, if players get booked or sent-off in European competitions they only miss European matches.

 

[Paxman II]

It's one of those games where the home side is due a defeat and we are due a surpise victory.
But our defense is a real issue I'm afraid.

that is spot on

And Norwich then smashed Sutton 8-0 or something in the next round.

 

[covhead1]

Going into this one expecting a thrashing!

Make a good day out of it and anything else is a bonus

A good day out in Burnley?

didn't we concede from 2 corners? haven't we come a long way?

 

[fernandopartridge]

At least had Killer been playing he'd have attacked the ball properly

 

[Speedies_Chips]

Oggy flapping at both crosses.

 

[Covkid1968#]

Will get Nothing from this…. However should we fluke a win…,The March to the Arch is back on.

 

[Gint11]

We’ll get spanked

No.
Yellow cards only count for the competition they are received in. Suspensions for red cards work across both though.

That’s good then

 

[PVA]

Hopefully we can get a CB in before the weekend, ideally one who is able to slot straight in and not need minutes to build fitness!

 

[Tommo1993]

4-1 Burnley. Will probably be a bit disappointed on Saturday morning to not be going, but happy with the decision come 5pm - probably earlier.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Start Moore for the lolz

 

[PVA]

Start Moore for the lolz

And tie concrete blocks to each foot and see if we can notice any difference

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Start Moore for the lolz

I would start him with Wilson, one of them on the team sheet as an outfield player. Just tell them both to stand in the goal and hopefully we'll concede less.

It's a very hard game, and the players are mentally weak. They've probably lost in their heads already.

 

[lord_garrincha]

It's one of those games where the home side is due a defeat and we are due a surpise victory.

Never change!

Let's hope so!

Off topic - Arsenal doing a seriously average attempt of Twist and Shout at Oxford.

It's more of an FA Cup tie than the one they shat the bed for against Conference crap last weekend
