Team for tonight. Phillips, Dijksteel, Bauer, Sarr, Stevenson Fosu, Pratley, Lapslie, Clarke Taylor, Ajose Subs Maynard- Brewer, Sarpong- Wiredu, Morgan, Marshall, Grant, Hackett- Fairchild.
Decent line up. Surprised that Lyle Taylor is being risked. Hopefully there are plenty of non league scouts at the Valley tonight, watching Ajose.
We have been absolutely **** this half. Hamilton for the Stags has been really good. If we don't improve in the second half we are going out.
Big improvement in the second half. Good hatrick from Lyle Taylor. I was there when Nicky Ajose scored. To be fair to him he laid on two goals. I am going for a long drink.
I’m already thinking about to the 3rd round now. Millwall away would be my favourite draw. Local trip, big away suppprt, great atmosphere. 10,000 plastics will come out the woodwork if we get a top 6 PL side away...
And why we shouldnt take this tournament seriously. I'm fed up with fans saying we shouldnt play a weakened team because 8,000 of them want to do man u away. Bowyer played a half decent team tonight and not even 2,000 turned up.
Bad weather, no takeover, you not being at the Valley tonight in your shorts ... There’s 3 reasons for starters.
The only good thing about was 4+ goals 12/1. The shorts will be making an appearance at Barnsley away
