JPT Leyton Orient team?

[WhingForPresident]

Hopefully:

Brezovan/Walker
Calderon
Elphick
El-Abd
Painter
Bridcutt
Sparrow
Bennett
Smith
Murray
Barnes

Subs: Kishishev, LuaLua, Brezovan/Walker, Battipiedi, Baz, Holroyd, Cook

Probably:

Ankergren
Calderon
Elphick
El-Abd
Painter
Smith
Sparrow
Battipiedi
Dicker
Bennett
Barnes

Subs: Walker, Bridcutt, Kishishev, Hart, Murray, Holroyd, Baz

 

[WhingForPresident]

Team will be.....

1. Walker
2. Whing
3. Tarrico
4. El Abd
5. Dunk
6. Smith
7. Caskey
8. Bridcutt
9. Baz
10. Hart
11. Holdroyd

Surely Dunk is still out injured?

 

[Ecosse Exile]

No, they got Reading, but carry on...

The point was that the league cup is full of teams like Liverpool etc. The JPT is not. A cup run in the league cup as Northampton have proved would generate income, the only decent gates in the JPT come in the area finals and the final at Wembley.

In the meantime we have to play an extra 4 or 5 games to get there meaning 4 or 5 more chances to get injuries/suspensions.

Our squad is not big enough to chase success in two competitions.

Gus said that it would be a strong team, as we have no game on Saturday, so we don't need to think about resting players for an important league game. Therefore it makes sense for Gus to paly a strong team, which could also respect Slade coming back to Withdean, and perhaps give some fringe players a run out for the last 30 mins. For example, he could bring on Baz or Bridcutt

After just hearing the quotes from Gus about JPT, would you like to retract these comments?

 

[philsussex]

Club text said that LuaLua won't be available for the JPT game

 

[Freddo]

I'll be gutted if Hart and Holroyd start up front tomorrow.
Fair enough no one cares about this competition, but it's still a good opportunity to build some momentum and give Barnes and Murray another game to develop their partnership.
With that in mind, I'd go for:

Walker

Calderon Elphick El-Abd Painter

Sparrow Bridcutt Battipiedi

Smith

Murray Barnes

So, a similar team to Saturday's but with no glaring weaknesses. Resting Kish and Bennett is enough in my opinion.

 

[Dirty Dave]

also there's no game Saturday, so 'resting' players isn't essential
