Kernow Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 A Carling Coca-Cola Worthington Capital One Carabao League Cup tie against Cleethorpes Town who call themselves Grimsby. Tuesday night at 7.45pm. Probably see a bit of a rotated squad, hopefully progress without too many problems. A game close enough to convince David to leave him armchair - which is probably made by Apple - isn't that nice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipe down 12 fingers, yes I will be there of course after a minor ticket dispute with Scott has been sorted. Further up the alphabet you go the less of the pitch you see due to an incompetent architect that put the roof on at a ridiculous angle to allow the seagull s**** to run off. As the fresh cod aroma circles Blundell Park I shall be watching a changed team that sees Vydra, Anya, Bennett and Nugent start. I'm yet to be surprised by a starting 11 this season, I don't expect that to change Tuesday. Not seen Grimsby play for a while, not since they were promoted so no idea how they are playing. Shouldn't really matter though we have enough to keep them quiet if the players turn up. Cup games are usually scrappy affairs this early on, Bennett will need to take this opportunity to show Rowett he could be the attacking option he needs. With Nugent up top he will have the best possible chance as you know he will work his nuts off alongside him. Prediction 0-2, Nugent with them both. On we go.

Sexydadbod Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 This will be an interesting game between the Grimsby boys, who make all the noise, vs Derby County. This will be a very difficult game but in different ways to the Sunderland game. Grimsby are a proper honest working class club. Their fans love fish and chips and appreciate hard graft, passion and determination. They will be desperate to win because their players will go down in their club's history if they get a win against the mighty Rams. If we don't give 100% then we will lose because these will be up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think you over estimate the importance of this game to them unless your tongue is in cheek or you've been drinking early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but your fish and chips is a lot nicer and fresher, that's a very important factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydadbod Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 Grimsby have recorded 2 previous giant killings in this cup, defeating Liverpool at Anfield in 2001 and Spurs in 2005. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted August 5, 2017 Share Posted August 5, 2017 All change team I expect Mitchell Baird Keogh Pearce Ollson Bennett Bryson Butterfield elsnick Nugent vydra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I'm expecting something like: Mitchell Wisdom Keogh Pearce Olsson Bryson Baird Bennett Vydra Anya Nugent Davies will be rested and I doubt Fozzy should be asked to play two in a week at the moment. We know what Carson can do, but Mitchell's been given a new four-year contract and in the event of Carson doing his back or some such, we need Mitchell to have a bit more experience. I think Wisdom needs games and will improve the more he plays, Captain Fantastic always plays. Bench probably something like: Roos Hanson Butterfield Johnson Russell Weimann Martin Almost certainly no room for the likes of Elsnik, Rawson, Zanzala, MacDonald to show what they can do.

kyle mccabe Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I really think it's worth giving these guys a shot on Tuesday. Ended last season great and feel they have been hard done by with Martin's return Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 There's already a thread on this fella. It's cryptically called 'Vydra & Nugent' which might be why you missed it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EulogyForEvolution Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I'd like to see Vydra and Martin given a go. But it would be great if the three of them could play in any combo of the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
