Bristol Rovers (h) Carrott Boo Cup 19/9/17

[playtheace]

Could be a decent atmosphere with Rovers bringing 1800 or so.

I'll go with:


--------------Norris-------------
---Bennett-----Batth----Miranda---
Marshall-----------------------Deslandes
---------N'Diaye----Price---------
---------------Wilson-----------------
-------Bright-----------Zyro----------

----Bennett --Batth-- Deslandes(Hause)

Marshall---Price ---N'diaye ---Douglas

--------Bright -----------Ronan

-----------------Zyro-------

 

[Tony Towner]

Norris

Bennett
Batth
Hause

Marshall
Price
N'Diaye
Deslandes

Costa/ Bright (half each)
Ronan

Zyro

 

[YoungWolf]

Pretty much. Marshall needs minutes and be good for him to play in the RWB role as although Doc is playing well if he gets injured we are very short!

Good chance for Bright and Ronan too. Ronan was brilliant against Southampton and can consider himself unlucky not to have really played since. When is Gibbs-White back?

 

[Jinky]

Not sure Douglas will be ready for this, and Vinagre took a knock v Forest & we don't want to burn him out. I'd play Doherty at LWB.

--------------Norris----------------
---Bennett--Batth--Deslandes---
Marshal--Price--N'Diaye--Doherty
------Bright--Zyro--Ronan--------

Costa on the bench, hopefully.

Costa on the bench, hopefully.

Would be happy with that - no need to risk Vinagre as he was taken off at the weekend & Ronan should play. Was the spark that finished Soton off in the last round

Hopefully Costa fit enough for a 15 min run around at the end when we are 3 up

 

[Kenny]

When is Gibbs-White back?

No clue. Last update was about 3 weeks ago and that was he is struggling when he steps up his training.

 

[Alan]

Who's our next closest rightback at youth level? Odoffin?

 

[Kenny]

We signed Oskar Buur in the transfer window for the U23's. Meant to be a highly rated right back

 

[YoungWolf]

He may well get a game. Herc and Goncalves could be on the bench too probably.

 

[AndyWolves]

From the BBC website :

Wolverhampton Wanderers have progressed past lower league opposition in 11 of their last 12 League Cup games at the Molineux, although the last seven have been against League Two sides.


Is this right? I thought we got beat by lower league teams quite often? Or are they just tedious games?

Bloke delivering to our work today reckoned Oskar is playing tomorrow...totally forgot about him.

 

[Alan]

Stick him in. I don't think Doherty has had any breaks at all so far.

 

[Tony Towner]

Neither Buur or Wilson played for the U23's last night

 

[Kenny]

Stick him in. I don't think Doherty has had any breaks at all so far.

Hasnt played in the league cup. Graham played at RWB in both games.

 

[Wombat del combate]

Hasnt played in the league cup. Graham played at RWB in both games.

Bloody Americans, rewriting history.

[Trips]

Can you pay on the gate this evening?

 

[Alan]

Bloody Americans, rewriting history.

And that's not even the worst of it!
