Swindon Town Build-Up (Carling Cup Round Two)

You'll be fine mate, I bought tickets on Friday n she said even if we sell out the first allocation you can buy on the day.

 

I'd like to see a young player like Ward-Prowse or Hoskins get a seat on the bench, but I don't think NA will do it

 

Thanks, JDub.

*If Barnard is fit.

 

Personally i think saints will put out a weakened to against swindon rather than risk the 1st teamers ......what do you think

 

Stephens isn't here any more (unless we have a youth played called Stephens)

 

We do

 

If we play our cards right I can easily see us making it to the last 16...then who knows! Maybe do what burnley did a couple years back and claim a couple prem sides.

 

Jack Stephens who skinned 4 Man Utd players and scored in a youth match yesterday morning which we won 4-2!!!

 

Oh yes, the lad we got from Plymouth.

 

Yes that's the one....the other one on loan from Oldham, Dale Stephens signed for Charlton and is doing well for them

 

Going to this, my first away game for months, of which I'm ashamed of.

The place is a dump but it'll be a laugh and I won't half care if we lose.

I reckon we'll still put a fairly strong team out with some first teamers as we haven't got a game until 10th September. Fox and Schneiderlin will probably start.

 

Fox is cup-tied

 

A game I wasn't too bothered about but now we need to put a side out to beat them and get back into that winning habit

 

Fair enough. Dickson to start then.

 

i too would like this to happen, but tbh i cant see it happening

Team I would use:

Bialkowski
Butterfield Martin Seaborne Reeves
De Ridder Chaplow Schneiderlin Holmes
Forte Barnard (if fit)

SUBS
Davis, Stephens, Fonte, Cork, Lallana, Hoskins, Lambert

 

I would play:

Bialkowski
Butterfield
Fonte
Martin
Harding
Holmes
Chaplow
Schneiderlin
Lallana
Lambert
De Ridder

SUBS: Davis, Seaborne, Dickson, Cork, Guly, Forte, Connolly.

 

I'd play us without Lambert. This will give NA a real chance to see how we handle a game without him. Have him on the bench. I'd also leave Fonte out for the same reason.

If doing this turns out to be a complete nightmare, it gives us Wednesday to do some last minute dealings. If you look at the treatment Lambert has had so far, he may well pick up an injury this year. We've been lucky that apart from the start of last season, he's been available all the time.

 

Need to give Martin a starting place.

 

We've got a good chance of getting into the latter stages of the carling cup with the draw we've got. So I can see a very strong team being put out.
