The Cheltenham game has come at a perfect time to give our main striker some much needed competitive game time tonight. Should be beating them quite comfortably tbh but I think the main objective is to get JCH match-fit as we already look so light on firepower in the first couple of games.

Not sure if risking him for this one is worth it. For me it’s the perfect game to try out Moore, Smith, Tomlinson and maybe give JCH 20-30 mins to ease him back in Imagine if we lost him again through injury in this game!

I agree JCH needs to be eased back in. However, I would prefer he started so he came into the game following a vigorous prematch warm up. If he comes on with 20 mins to go after being sat on the bench for ages and just does the token jog up and down the touch line then he will probably be more prone to tweeting a muscle etc. I would take him off at half time and give Moore a run. I'd also give TN a full game to hopefully get him off the mark. Id keep experimental changes to a minimum but it would be good to see Tomlinson get a decent run out as from what I've heard on here he seems our most exciting young prospect(?).

Our manager has already said JCH will get another twenty minute or so run out tonight.

Keep experimental changes to a minimum? Why?
Surely a game like this is a perfect chance to say to his youth, go out and prove to me why I should consider you for the first team?

Especially as league cup has no prize money until the semi finals and we cannot guarantee a favourable away draw at a massive club to gain from the gate receipts. I'd say this game is mostly about getting a win on the board and creating some momentum, but I'd like to see that come with a bit of adventurousness! Been too cautious for too long.

If you read my post in its entirety you would see it said SOME game time, never mentioned playing the whole game nor would I expect him to. Around half hour to 45 minutes is a rough estimate of time I would like to see him play.

No offense to the OP but I pretty much thought the post was the opposite of what I was thinking! EDIT: endicotton after seeing your latest post I now realise I misread your original post. Apologies.

All about opinions and no one is right or wrong!
We all want to win tonight, personally I’d love to see a young fast team put out. Told to earn that shirt. Told they stand a chance of progressing. I’m not sure what the point of the Dev squad is otherwise?

Hoping to get TN off the mark is like hoping that your not f**ked when a 8 mile wide asteroid enters our atmosphere and that you still have time to make a cup of tea.

Agree with OP except for where he states we should be beating them comfortably, sorry i can't see us beating anyone at the moment let alone comfortably. This is a real banana skin of a tie and i can see us losing REALLY hope i am wrong but after Saturday........

Would like to see fringe players play tonight, Wouldn’t risk JCH or maybe just give20 mins it is important that we win but imo it’s more important to give game time to some players who haven’t played or who have not played s full 90. Even make formation change .win the game will boost confidence but certain players will have a point to prove ,and hopes GC keeps to his word in that if they play well then they will keep the shirt. Time will tell whoever plays ..good luck lads..
