[The Reverend Skyblue]

I couldn't give a toss, this is a nothing game in a nothing cup .
Getting out the shit in the league is all that matters.
If we do lose this which I think that confidence is so low we will, Venus will have to go.

on other hand we were are in for a dire season, cup run towards wembley would be nice.

Still no fit right back, so I guess bigi will be there again with the 3 - 4 - 3 that has worked so well for us.

3 4 3 is definitely the way to go.

 

[oucho]

Although I have woken up screaming in the night remember various Willis RB performances (Orient away when we drew 2-2, for instance), I still think that's a better bet than wingbacks at present. Confidence is just shot and 4 at the back will be more solid.

Unfortunately, our problems go way beyond the lack of a fit RB. Once we've got the back 4 sorted, we need a solid midfield who can win the ball, dominate possession and distribute the ball properly; we need wingers who can get into space on the flanks and whip difficult crosses into the 6-yard box or switch the play; we need striker who have the ability to kick the ball at the net.

Sorry can't make match, stuck in St Lucia, shame as you know where I would rather be
answers on postcards please

 

[Paul Jones]

Get through this round & then I bet it's not so "tinpot" as Wembley gets closer.

MV has stated that he couldn't risk Mcann or Rose in the FA cup game but they are in for this shit meaningless game.Why risk them tomorrow when the league is far more important.

 

[torchomatic]

I wish I could go.

I wonder how many would go to the shit meaningless final if we got there?

 

[wingy]

Crawley are a woeful excuse of a team, so it should be a fairly even affair. No doubt Fishcake will come out and state that the club have incurred losses due to such a poor turnout despite him giving the new format a thumbs up in the summer. With a bit of nous, a fiver a ticket would probably have generated a higher revenue.

Oh yes the result, 1-1 and a scraped win in ET if such thing exists in this farcical contest.

Was just going to reply to torch on a different thread but here will do.
I again will give it a miss for this exact reason.
The lack of marketing of these games is a disgrace,same for the Morecambe one as well.
Call me old and grumpy as much as you like.
I refuse to be shunted around that stadium ever again.
As it stands I don't anticipate going again this season.
So torch I will give Wembley a miss too, everyone's happy!!

I would miss it anyway and most like the rest of the season from Feb and I ain't happy about it!

I'll take you to the pub, watch it there, I'd much prefer to drive you down there though.

As long as they serve a mean Vimto or orangeade then you're on!

Saying that I'm likely to be working in Paris anyway around then. :'(

No worries, I haven't been there for years and I don't snore.

Ah Vimto.
Bloody brilliant I do snore though.

 

[johnwillomagic]

RCC GK

Turnbull CB
Harries CB
Page LB
Rose RW
Bigi CM
McCann CM

Tudguy ST
Sordell ST

Subs: Burge, Finch, Lameiras, G.Thomas, Maycock, McBean, Reid

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Why are we short of a right back aren't the Kelly-Evans twins identical

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Going now. Fully intend to just chant Venus what's the plan for the whole game

 

[Gazolba]

I think we'll win so long as we play two strikers up front. I'd prefer Sordell and McBean.

 

[ccfcway]

Going now

you'll be there pretty early then ?

Do you mend broken bones

 

[stevefloyd]

Do you mend broken bones

I got it

 

[stevefloyd]

I fortunately am still 6,500 miles away and I will be asleep when we 'play' tonight so will look to see how many we lost by tomorrow morning

 

[Otis]

I am fortunately 2 miles away and will also probably be asleep, as I have had a tough half an hour cleaning up puppy sick.

No idea how that will look in the morning.

 

[stevefloyd]

what the puppy or the sick?

 

[CJ_covblaze]

I'll be half a mile away. Might pop down the casino to see a few mates before. No way am I going in though.

 

[Otis]

what the puppy or the sick?

The puppy always looks the same. A cross between Betty Boop and Hitler.

Why, what problem do you have with the casino?

 

[Pipehitterz]

I'll be too busy at the Biffy Clyro gig to even care for this one.
Can't believe the manager hasn't stepped down

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

That's a benchmark of how shit things are if ever I've seen one.

Go to casino at the stadium, but don't even go into the game!

 

[Otis]

I'm surprised you even know who he is. Not many famous ones these days. Not like the old days of Epstein and McLaren.

Thats exactly how i describe her indoors!
