EFL Northern Group F - The Dale (A)

Team: Rochdale AFC

Date: 04/10/16

Where: Spotland Stadium



What line-up should John Sheridan opt for? What will be the key areas for the Magpies to get a victory? What do you think the final score will be?

Have your say below, join in with the Pride of Nottingham match discussion.

Do we have Sunderland in this? I know people don't care about the cup but winning games can impact momentum and allow things to gel away from it.

It gives us a chance to play some fringe players without breaking the balance of the squad that is winning games in the league. I don't think the attendance will be good but sooner or later something will give.

minimum of 5 first team players, according to the rules. An interesting question, does the default 5 countingΒ position go back to the Exeter game as Saturday's game was abandoned?Β 

So Hollis, Laing, Aborah, Milsom, Forte form my 5, providing Saturday's game as basis

Team

Loach

Laing Hollis Audel

Richards Aborah, Milsom Atkinson, Snijders

Forte, Gibson

Play five first teamers, but tell them not to tackle, or get tackled as it is paramount that they don't get injured. Fill the rest of the side with fringe players who can do all the tackling and running. You can guarantee that Murray will be telling his side again not to tackle, so the last thing we need for the weekend is two players out who would normally start.Β 

I would even be tempted to play Collin in order only to put four outfield players at risk.

Hopefully this holds no impact on our form, yet I can't help but feel it is poor to go 1-0 up and then to allow the team you was beating to take the lead 2-1.

Are we out of this abysmal cup yet?

I don't think so. I don't know what the format is. I'd imagine it's 2 to go through?

As it's a group we aren't out as yet , a win away at Sunderland would see notts through , don't think personally it will have any impact on our league form , bring on Mansfield Saturday , hope we are bang up for it , I'm sure we will be , and let's hope for a better result than last season , COYPΒ 

Pity to miss out on 10k win bonus that victory at Rochdale. Listening to Uncle Colin and Stall, the latter said at half time Burke was anonymous... ( how many times in Burke's Notts career have I heard that).

Campbell again cannot score despite his work rate. I would not be surprised if JF makes some tough decisions as early as January.
