Saturday 16th November fixtures

Ffs. Now had a 3rd call up (Doyle for the under 20s) but can't call it off because it's less than 5 days notice. ..

Fair to say everyone should lump on Lincoln on Saturday

Frustrating to lose Doyle, yes. But luckily our squad isn’t depleted by injuries, so plenty of options to choose from.

Having midfield options of Woods, Francis, Cole, Aitchison is decent and we’ll be able to bring on the likes of Mitchell, Cox, Bird etc for some quality off the bench.

Also keen to see Alli have another chance through the middle. He’s proved he can do it so this is an ideal chance for him.

This is a league match so shouldn't be about players taking chances, we should be able to field our strongest possible side, as Lincoln are able to.
Maybe Charlton could help us with an appeal to the EFL???

This shows how ridiculous the system is. Of Charltons three call ups, only Small was in the squad (came on as sub). Meanwhile our two call ups were pivotal figures in our side but we can't cancel...

We have our two keepers called up and have to get an emergency loan in.

To be fair, Connell Trueman has doe ok for us but it's an accident waiting to happen.

I get what you’re saying but as we’re in this position we just need to get on with it until the rules change. We have some quality to come in and it could work to our advantage if one or two of them make an impact. It’s not as if the players we bring in are going to be untried kids.

I think the EFL probably need to look at L1 soon r.e. international breaks. For the time being though, I'm assuming EFL sides agreed to the current rules i.e. 3 call-ups?

 

[Conker]

they only do half a job anyway, most of our internationals are either playing in Oceania or the Caribbean so they come back unable to start the first game after the break.

Whereas we've been F5ing the Chile, Malawi and Sierra Leone squad selections!
