Suspect most peoples will be different but we still need to put out a strong team although I would like to see a few youngsters on the bench. We still have a few injury worries and Fraizer Campbell and Larrson both picked up knocks at West Ham. I would go.... Westwood Gardner......Killgallon...Titus.....Rose Sess.......Meyler....Colback....McClean Wickham...Saha Think that is definitely strong enough to win the game an it gives the likes of Catts, Fletcher and mig the chance to have a rest while giving the lads out of form like Sess and JM the chance to get some confidence. Also chance for Meyler and Wickham to impress. Have the likes of Laing, Knott and Noble on the bench in case we are comfortably winning in the second half. Thoughts?
Got a feeling MON will put his strongest team out mate both for match practice and to progress in the cup. Personally I'd like to see the kids and fringe players given a run out just can't see MON doing it though.
Pretty much this I think. I would like to see Wickham getting a run out in the first half at least - Fletch on the bench to be on the safe side.
Rose might be rested due to the bloody nose he got. Campbell is also having an xray on his foot. so... Mig Gardner, killa, oshea, colback Larsson, Meyler, Catts, Mcclean Sess Fletcher
for anyone who has included Larsson and/or Campbell in there line ups they are both ruled out for me its either... ----------------- Westwood ----------------- Gardner ---- O'Shea ----- Bramble --- Colback ------ Cattermole ----------- Vaughan ------- McClean -------- Sessegnon ------------ Rose ------------------- Saha--------------------- or ----------------- Westwood ----------------- Gardner ---- O'Shea ----- Bramble ------ Rose Sessegnon - Catts -------- Vaughan - McClean --------- Fletcher ---------- Saha -----------
Start Westwood, O Shea, Bramble, Kigallon, Vaughn, Meyler, Catts, Colback, JI, Whickham, Saha. Subs Fletcher, Sess, McClean, Rose, Mig, and two reserves. Also what is the weather like down there?.

A few snippets of team news. http://www.footballfancast.com/2012/09/football-news/sunderland-youngster-still-in-managers-plans http://www.eatsleepsport.com/sunderland/boss-challenges-fringe-stars-1474749.html#.UGHBu7JlTW0 http://www.football.co.uk/sunderland/o_neill_taking_game_seriously_rss3556219.shtml
Imo even if you want to give the full second string a run out, you never drop an in-form striker. Fletcher would play no matter what the line up for me.
Dean I've been told that there are industrial estates next to the ground where you can park free on the road. Don't park in Asda, as you'll get fined £60. I'm just going to drive round the estate to the south of the ground (over the dual carriageway) 'til I find something
Hope you do play your strongest team, I've committed the ultimate sin and bet on you to win in my accumulator.
On any other occasion I'd tend to agree with you, but I put two bets on, on Saturday and won them both (£240 from two £5 bets, first time I've won in about 18 months and I put a tenner on every weekend). Anyway the point is good things come in three's right?
Apparently can't remember us winning 3 in a row for a good while though, quit while you are ahead mate.
