That's bad luck

 

[herecomesaregular]

Interesting that some FA cup games have already been called off yet Derby have chosen that their entire first team will not be involved in their game but they'll send a team of u23s.

 

[blue-shifted]

There's almost no change of getting these games rescheduled.

The FA will just have to lob teams out of the competition who can't field a team.

Derby are doing the right thing

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

We are going to win the cup. Fourth consecutive season in the top flight, solid blue shirts with white pinstripe, heading for relegation? We're going to w...... oh, hang on

Southampton v Shrewsbury off as Shrewsbury team down with covid

U23s and U18s as half the U23s had trained with the first team, and are therefore isolating

 

[Worried Man Blues]

Also Villa Ladies ooo err

 

[herecomesaregular]

Maybe Smith and Klopp will have a chat and agree to put out u23s/u18s only. Would suit both clubs.

"And Tau must score"

 

[Stat Brother]

At least we can guarantee Grealish didn't do anything selfish and self-centred, on NYE, putting others at risk.

Beat me to it ya stripey so and so!

 

[Me and my Monkey]

Also Villa Ladies ooo err

Must have been one hell of a party. Not that I’m suggesting there was any NYE partying going on, on no, not me.

 

[Lethargic]

Burnley as well and more cases at Man city, how much longer can professional football continue to bury their heads in the sand?

 

[Official Old Man]

Also Villa Ladies ooo err

Are you saying Villa will be fielding a team of U23, U18 & Ladies?
Joking aside, could they field their ladies team in full?

I mean we didn’t wear the pinstripe kit until the cup final when we were already relegated ... but apart from that

 

[Swansman]

People often moaning about how the squad is "too nice" and following all the rules etc... but what you do on the pitch translates to what you do off it and vice versa. Not much covid shite in the Brighton camp so far this season... while there's luck and lack of luck, no coincidence I believe. Enough of the postponement nonsense, just let them play their U23s.

 

[Southern Scouse]

Maybe Smith and Klopp will have a chat and agree to put out u23s/u18s only. Would suit both clubs.

I have a feeling we might want to win this one...

As I’ve posted elsewhere, Villa were quite happy last year, when Liverpool were forced into fielding a team of kids in a cup tie, due to circumstances beyond their control (WCC). In fact they found it hilarious.

Boot on the other foot now.
