Get her to knit some boots for Burge because the ones he wears now don't work
Get her to knit some boots for Burge because the ones he wears now don't workI'm praying to the rain and sun gods every night and offering my wife up as a blood sacrifice.
I'm also getting my mum to knit some extra big goalkeeping gloves for Lee Burge. Not sure what else I can do.
We could maybe draw some arrows on the ball too for him.Get her to knit some boots for Burge because the ones he wears now don't work
If we had a graceful exit from the FA Cup then we can concentrate on the league
I actually wouldn't be surprised if we rested a lot of our players for this game. particularly ,
McNulty, Willis, Bayliss, - would definitely get these guys rested for a 10/11 days! for the big push in! wouldn't want anymore fatigue injuries.
Id go with the following, who also some need match practice. and you just never know.
JCH, Biamou
Barrat, Shipley, Kelly, Reid/JMD
Haynes, Hyam, Mcdonald, DKE
Really need to be concentrating on the league! and making sure some use that weekend as week off!
Yes but humiliation will go too far the other way. Every good result is worth its weight in confidence and goodwill.
We wont get humiliated. and so what if we do! it has no bearing on the league. Id rather a 2-3 nil defeat than lose McNulty/willis/Bayliss/Doyle in this match! that would be criminal!
Definitely rest these four! other than that full strength, I'm sure there will be positives.
Barrat /Reid/ JMD/JCH need game time and not in the Under 23s!
Mind you how would people feel if we was to win 8-1
6 points from Accrington and and Colchester and everyone's perception of the league will change.
I think 4 points is the bare minimum we need from those 2 league games though, especially before Brighton away.
If we're not in or close to the autos come mid / late march, then panic stations.
On the flip side 2 points or less and it's meltdown part 5... injuries have been cruel this year especially to now possibly lose 3 key defenders.
How many injuies we actually got? no more than anyone else has got? Most teams have got 2/3/4/5 players injured. With Suspensions also. (we been quite fortunate with suspensions so far) can only think of one McDonald.
Grimmer - possibly miss 2 league games and be back for Mansfield- that's if its 3 weeks? hopefully wont be more than 4 weeks.
Davies - 6-8 Weeks
Stokes - ?? hopefully he isn't injured but could be missing for 3 weeks like Grimmer so may miss 2 League games.
and the two long term injuries, Jones and Andreu.
that's 4 possibly 5 injured players. if you include long term.
I accept injuries are part and parcel of the game and all sides get them and are affected in different ways. Always seems our key players pick up the injuries.
My reference was to Davies, Grimmer and Stokes.... we've yet to know the real extent to Grimmer and Stokes but early signs are they will be doubtful for Accrington and Colchester in the first of a big February fixture run.
Davies who will certainly be out will be a big loss for sure and was a rock at the back recently. Mcdonald will slot in but it's Davies old school approach we will miss v Wycombe.
Suspensions so far we've been very good on not even Doyle has picked up a ban yet despite everyone suspecting he would in the summer.
Key is hang in there this month tough month. il be happy to still be in touch with play offs and Automatic places. ie don't lose ground.
Then its game on from March on wards in the last 10!
i have feared the worst on more than one occasion this season. the problems we face right are less than just before the Luton game. it really was meltdown.This is definitely a month to keep in touch with the pack for sure. Not a easy task but this is CCFC, we don't take the easy route.
Plenty of twists and turns left in this season.
