Not sure on the injury front but don’t see the point in risking Austin, Stef or Moses.
We should be able to use some of our fringe players and come away with a good result. I would like to see the following -
Archer
Dunne Dickie Barbet
Kakay Ball Dozzel McCullum
Adomah Chair
Dykes
Would be good to see Kelman and Bettache get some game time to.

If we’re not serious about trying to win something I wouldn’t risk Dickie after his display Saturday and in the friendlies. Has been outstanding.

Play Saturday's bench and protect our most prized assets.

I last went to Brisbane Road in a league cup game years ago when i lived 20 minutes away in North Chingford. We lost 3-2, i think, with Richard Langley playing like alain giresse in the middle of the park and the rest of the side like Geoff Pike in Ian Dury's calipers. Bizarrely, I also witnessed a 7-3 win for Geoff Hursts Chelsea there in the late 7o's as a kid.
I'd like us for once to take both cups with a hint of belief and intention. Probaly more chance of me being served a bottle of Lamot Pils by Syd barrett in my local battle cruiser but you never know.
So for me, a nice run to the quarter finals just for the bolt, the buzz, the sheer fuck off-ness of it all.
Urssssssss

Play strongest team, batter the cants, boost morale, bed team in a bit more. Ffs give fans a break and some hope of a run.

Me too. Get through a couple of rounds and there's also a financial incentive. We need to be competing properly in cup comps.

I'd much rather we started with a stronger side then use the squad if we're 2 or 3 up. Further to Disco and Hal's posts, a good cup run boosts team morale and brings a Dr Feelgood factor to the club.

Personal opinion would like to go through but could be a good thing going out early. We don’t have a big squad and cannot afford to chance losing players medium/long term in a competition we’re not going win
Imagine losing a chair, dickies or Johansen for three months to play Sutton United in next round. Not worth it
All about league this season

I’d like us to give it a go in all completions. I do have us down to win the league and league cup and Fa cup. Thanks However, I wouldn’t risk Dickie (because he’s just too bloody important), Odubajo (given recent injury record) and I would play Chair but see he’s not ready for today.
Dieng Dunne, De Wijs, Barbet Kakay, Johansen, Dozzell, McCullum Willock, Adomah, Dykes

I reckon central pairing tonight will be Georginho and Bettache. I can’t see Johansen playing. Maybe Dozzell.

This match would be very interesting if we could see Sinclair Armstrong and/or others get a chance coming off from the bench.

Very surprised at how many first teamers are involved tonight. I'm guessing some of them must need the game time.

Should be enough for Orient. 10-9 on penalties

Not full strength but that team should have more than enough to beat Orient
