StarterForTen Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 24 minutes ago, Ambitious said: I did nail this down as perhaps the most depressing game in the club's history, where we are made to play against another side's U21 side in a competitive match. I'm not surprised the interest is at an all-time low. It's the fact that the fixture counts as a first team game for one side, but it isn't for the other - that's just mad. It's either a first team game or it isn't - can't be both! Rammy03 and RadioactiveWaste 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 (edited) Personally, I hope we put out a decent team and absolutely stuff them.

LazloW Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I’m going tonight and think I’ll quite enjoy it (what else am I going to be doing after all?). The game against Grimsby felt a bit more ‘grass rooty’, small crowd, mostly enthusiastic, seeing a few players we hadn’t seen much of, no real pressure. Just a bit of fun. Of course, understand that people have to weigh up whether it’s worth spending the money on, particularly at the mo. I doubt this game is high on anybody’s list of priorities for time or money, so certainly no criticism from me for what will be a small crowd (although all things being equal I’d rather watch it in person than on RamsTV). As most of the U21s are out on loan (it seems) does this mean it will be a strong team? I suppose it gives Warne another opportunity to hone his style and drill it into the players with a bit of a ‘free hit’ (will people moan and complain if we lost tonight?)

Anyway, Louie is "obviously hopeful" of progressing this evening! Disappointed this surely mean Louie starts when he played all 104 minutes on Saturday and we surely need him fresh and uninjured in the heart of midfield for Friday. But pleased he's happy and expect he just wants to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadioactiveWaste Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 The u21s thing really irritates me. I've no grudge against the EFL trophy and we're in a division to play for it, so we should try to win it or do as well as we can, but I just can't summon up anything for playing against an u21 side for man city.

cstand Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Regardless what anyone thinks of the competition winning is a good habit so hoping for a good result tonight with Collins to bag a couple and show he can moderate his frustrations on the pitch after his sending off.

kevinhectoring Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Looking forward to seeing how Rooney gets on - he’ll be up for this. Also seeing how Smith fares. Hoping we’ll see more of the two of them soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warne must think Smith and McGoldrick also need more minutes for fitness, so we already have a strong spine emerging. Interesting to see Knight starting, but I feel he needs to find his mojo in midfield, and maybe this is the game to do it. He should be dominating League One midfields for the whole game, not just in flashes, but hasn't so far. Great to see all the others get minutes.

But they can still be bossed and bullied by seasoned pros. I think Warne had that in mind when he picked the team Carl Sagan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
