Players who need a run:

McDermott, Small, Robinson, Forrester, Holden, Charsley, the lad from West Ham, Jones, Agyakwa, Hussey, Massey, Stone

Holden, Hussey, Massey, Stone, Charsley and Jones are all classed as qualifying players as all have 40 plus appearances. We only need 4 on the pitch.

So basically what I put but Massey swapped with Small 😂

Can Small play upfront ? I thought he was a LB/LWB

Feel that DC will just go with as many fringe players as he can and get some minutes into them.

Do I feel we can win.  Not feeling it.  Just think we will put a side out that lumps the ball up to the front players and it doesn't work.

Southampton say he can play left wingback or left wing. Massey really used to play right wing but basically played as a right wingback for 3 years. It will be a lot easier for Small to play on the left of a front 2 than playing as a left footed right wingback.

I get the sense that people are not taking this tie very seriously 🤣

However, it does seem particularly useful as a substitute for pre season friendlies 🤔

Full Available Strength’ means the EFL Club must include at least four Qualifying Players in the ten outfield Players named in the starting eleven on the Team Sheet.

7.4  Qualifying Player means any Player who:

 7.4.1  had started the immediately preceding First Team Fixture (as defined below);

 7.4.2  subsequently starts the immediately following First Team Fixture;

 7.4.3  is in the list of ten Players at the Club with the highest number of starting appearances in First Team Fixtures in the same Season;

 7.4.4  has made forty or more starting appearances in First Team Fixtures or international equivalents (and not limited to the same Club or Season); or

 7.4.5  is on standard loan from a Premier League Club or any EFL Club operating a Category One Academy.

 

Small and Mipo can come in as loans from Premier League clubs.

Charsley has over 40 starts during his career so far at Mansfield and Vale so he qualifies.

Cass has 4 starts this season so he would comfortably be in the list of our top ten starters. Robinson and Forrester both have 3 so they would be Joint 10th on the list.

Stone

Forrester Agyakwa Jones

Robinson Charsley Pett Hussey

Massey Odubeko Small

…Holden and Tommy Mc to get minutes off the bench.

Don't mind the look of this at all but would put Small into Hussey's position and put Holden in on the left next to Odubeko.

Stockport fan here!

Our first game in the Football League Trophy for nearly 12 years has thrown up a repeat of the 1993 final, which has quite a nice ring to it, even if it brings back painful memories for us! Ahead of our first trip to Vale Park in over a decade, I’ve had a chat with Rob Fielding from the One Vale Fan website.
