McDonnell and maybe Digby.........Oar will certainly start ......hopefully young Tabb will get a game but I doubt it you know Mick has his favorites .....
Can't remember who's on loan and who isn't. Would've liked to have seen Yorwerth again but I know he's on loan. Maybe wise to give Bart a chance of a cup run, Parr at LB or RB possibly
There was an article on Christmas Eve in the Norwegian tabloid VG stating that Parr was going to sign for Stromgodset a top flight Norwegian team, I don't know what the strength of it is but it might explain why weve not seen him?
I see your interest is all about as much as mine in this game, zero. Well I hope whoever plays ( please rest Murphy Sears Fraser Berra Smith etc ) performs well and we make it through. Do not under any circumstances want a replay. Either do it on the day or let Pompey through.
I can see us nicking this one 1-0. It's a chance for the fringe players to hopefully put a case forward, and to get some game time. I'd like to see the following team; Bart Parr Malarcyk Smith Chambers Coke Hyam AMN Oar Varney Pitman With the big boys on the bench in case it was going wrong.
Ooooh, I was close but no cigar Bart Chambers Malarky Digby Knudsen AMN Skuse Hyam Oar Pitman Varney Just got Knudsen and digby wrong
I'd give Knudsen a break - I think he's played every game so far, and I doubt Digby will play - he's only on loan, and he may be cup tied.
Ok, I didn't realise the gaffer had picked the team, I thought Spanish's was just a guess. Should be good enough to beat Pompey, as long as the boys put a decent shift in. I'll stick with my 1-0 prediction, with Pitman to get the goal from a Varney knock down.
The 'old' gaffer has picked the team and it is similar, realistic and pragmatic as others. Our key players really need a break. Pompey will give us a real go, and I wont be at all surprised if they nick it 1-0. But, I will go for 2-1 Town. We dont want a draw!
