Definitely - but would certainly make me pause before promoting him to the first team given the maturity needed. 

We haven't seen that behavior out of any of the other teenagers we've been playing, so can't be just a teenager thing.

I raise you Conchie.

Also not convinced he's got the mentality to be a first teamer, tbh. Disappoints at almost every opportunity on the pitch and his slur was deserving of a longer ban than Cassidy's tackle (though at least there's been no indication of a repeat).

I thought Conchie was ok against Wrexham. I think Chiefs system last year was too defensive for his style of play.

So with Retre coming in do we add another midfielder and go to a back 4? Or does Roa Conchie lose his place and we stick with the back 5 from last week?

Good questions. And since it's a proper game, do we expect our starting eleven to play regular minutes?

Oi Oi Edgecumbe... lets have a clean sheet

Yeah, I think so. Since we are limited to  5 subs this time around, plus the first team have another week of training in their legs.

Did they get rid of the cup tie rule? I thought players like Sutton and Wootton couldn't play against us?

I think they removed it for if a player played in the playoff games but if they were to move to a different club after this game then they’d be cup tied for the next round.

I have zero expectations with this game. Actually that isn't true I expect we will knocked out.  Prove me wrong Phoenix, I double dare you.

While I think we are going out now, I am more intrigued about this game after the Wrexham performance. Hopefully we can see some of the attacking evolution that has been talked about

Cassidy omitted. Maybe 5 at the back?
I'd expect Munro to get some minutes, seems to have impressed Italiano.

This is unwatchable.

EDIT: They wiped the lens. Now the only unwatchable part is our style of backpass play.

Nice to see us press a little higher than what we did last year - that's a postive change.

Still a little wasteful going forward - don't really have a striker so we can't make a direct break.
