    However ignoring my last post....
    After seeing KAG's crossing i'd stick him on the wing, make JBG play in his correct position and stick the two big men up top.

    We will lose, the question is, by how many.
  • I think we will lose narrowly though last minute Colchester goal probably.

    A win is vital, the only downside being it would guarantee Fraeye another few months. If only because we might secure a high-profile home 4th round draw with all the potential for mischief against the board that would bring. I fancy a chirpy 3-0 win.

    Williams or Cousins at RB seem the only other options
  • Pope
    Williams- Johnson- Lennon/Sarr-HD
    Kennedy-Poyet-Cousins-Ceballos/Moussa
    Mak Lookman/Reza

    Bench: Hendo, Solly, Lennon/Sarr, Fox, Lookman/Reza, Ceballos/Moussa, AG/Pigott(if not cup tied)

    this assumes the following not available: Diarra, Bauer, Jackson, Harriott, Kashi, Vetokele,

    1-3 to us

    worth keeping an eye on rotherham and fulhams results in cup, as our league matches will be moved if rotherham progress this round and fulham progress to the round after.

    THD is suspended, so Fox at LB or even Lennon

    Where do you see JBG's correct position? I ask as he's played in a number of positions

    The FA Cup nd Charlton usually fills me with dread but I think we will sneak this. What does fill me with dread is that this might stir the Regime to appoint Fromage full time, they only need an excuse!

    If Moussa and Bergdich are on their way out, they would not play them in the cup

  • I think we will play a weakened team and considering our first team is weakened to begin with, I have a bad feeling about this game. The one positive is they are struggling in their lower league.

    They've lost 9 out of their last 10, so we'll sort that out for them on Sat.

    Well Bergdich is unlikely to move to another English team, so being cup tied won't be an issue...
  • What about giving Edwards a run out at Left-Back?

    Bizarrely, although you've previously only been able to buy online. They are now on sale by phone. But the last day for posting has gone.

    I suppose you could still collect them, but I'll leave it to anyone interested, to see if the ticket office window will be open again this week.

    They are also quoting increased pay on the day rates, so basically anyone can go, even if they thought they had been precluded by the online only rule.

    Building a better future together (except those not online, more likely to be the older fanbase who can do one).

    But it was a way of trying to sort out the siddarn problems.

    Will Meire and Murray turn up? Smaller ground, closer to 'fans' and the prospect of being embarrassed by large away-end hostility to them in front of Colchester's directors?

    If we lose. Will Fraeye go ? If so I will take that.

    Given Murray's excuse for a statement, and assuming that's all the club has to offer the customers, then Colchester has to be where the fans really let rip (without abuse etc) and let any of the board who happen to be there (plus the interim) know exactly how we feel about the club and Murray's tripe
