v Scunthorpe (A) Carabao Cup - Match Thread

[Rample]

Tuesday 13 August. 

7:45 kick off. 

Guess the big question is play the kids or go for a bit more consistency? Anybody know Phil's history with cup competitions? 

Hopefully one or two of the squad will get minutes under their belt to build fitness. 

[DcFc Dyycheee]

Hamer; Bateman, Keogh, Clarke, Lowe; Bielik, Knight, Sibley; Bennett, Marriott, Paterson. 

Give the kids a crack and get minutes in for Bielik. 

[oomarkwright]

Looking forward to seeing a ringing of the changes with Lowe Martin Bielik anya mazza and some kids. 

Will be listening on RD and hope it's not the usual banana skin.

Would go relatively full strength to get fitness levels up, build cohesion, build confidence etc

However Bielik, Marriott and Shinnie to start.

Is this game being shown on TV or streamed anywhere? Doesn't look to be on RamsTV, and the fixture's got the Pitch International symbol next to it on the website, but I don't know who exactly is showing it.

I like that thinking. If fit I’d give Holmes some minutes too, but I’d like to see sibley and knight around the team

Dowell needs more practice. Why risk Lowe if Bogle is out.

[Millenniumram]

As always with cup games, upsets are always on the cards- need to make sure we avoid slipping on this Particular banana skin. Difficult to know what to expect from them, but we need to out and play our game and hopefully be a bit better at it- could do with getting an easy win to boost our confidence and get us playing with more freedom. As usual with cup games, rotate some of the players out to get some of the squad players minutes so they’re fit and ready and up to speed if called upon (not necessarily the kids). That’s what I’d do anyone, dunno about cocu, he hinted at changing things up, though injuries to squad players may restrict that. Team for me:

Hamer

Anya Keogh Clarke Lowe

Huddlestone

Shinnie Knight

Josefzoon Waghorn Bennett

Right back position is an obvious problem with both bogle and wisdom presumably out. Anya could possibly do a job out of position there so will have to do. Give Waghorn and Josefzoon a chance to banish their poor form so far and kickstart their respective seasons.

Yes definitely get Mariott on for at least half a game v Scunthorpe. Needs to start next Saturday, as we looked  a bit toothless against Swansea.
