Saints travel to Kent looking to build on a confidence boosting win at Sheffield Wednesday. I would expect Russell Martin to make a lot of changes for this one. I would go: McCarthy Bree Lyanco Stephens(c) Larios/Perraud or Djenepo if neither fit Doyle Charles Stu Amo-Ameyaw Mara Aribo I think Ballard is injured or at least not match fit so that rules him out. Match officials: Referee: Carl Brook Assistants : Stephen Finch, Shaun Farrer 4th Official : Ben Atkinson
Ballard is presumably match fit now. Played a few games for the u21s. Mara is injured isn't he? On another note, anyone else still not got their tickets through for this one yet? Cutting it a bit fine.
Like the look of that team. I’d like to see Charles at 6 and also Doyle and Sam AA playing. What is useful to consider though is that we might need less rotation than assumed because of the heavy possession style. So it wouldn’t be surprising to see fewer changes. No reason to play McCarthy though. Just because we could do a 100% rotation it doesn’t mean we should
I remember our last game at Priestfield. It was the penultimate game of our first league one season and they won 3-2 with their fans invading the pitch thinking they'd secured safety. Problem is they got dicked on the final day and every result went against them so they still went down
Logically a chance to give some players a run out….on the other hand it is an opportunity to keep momentum going and give the main players another chance to gel
Agree with Tom ref changes, I’m not suggesting we’ll want to lose, but the cups are going to be pretty low priority and Martin will want to give everyone from our big squad a run out McCarthy Bree Lyanco Stephens(c) Djenepo Charles Lavia SAA Aribo S.Armstrong Adams outside chance of Meghoma starting left back. Have seen Larios and Perraud back In training, but doubt they’re match fit
If they paid the asking price all of this could have been avoided. £50million or he plays two minutes at Gillingham! I love a threat which rhymes
Anyone remember that gillingham fan on here all the time a long time ago. Wonder what happened to him
Hoadie? Used to post a lot during our promotion run in wishing us luck etc iirc. No idea if still around. @brb should know?
His profile says he's 27 now, so was a kid when he was on here regularly. Apparently he followed me...I'd have noticed if a 50 year old was following me, cos he'd have moaned about his bad knee, and muttered something about snowflakes
I don't remember this person at all. I don't know if that's a good thing, or a "my memory ain't what it used to be" thing.
