[Albion] Team for Man Utd - Carabao Cup

[Icy Gull]

Are you born since 1990?

I wish, maybe we can give it a go and revert to a bucket of cold water and a sponge with some cortisone injections to see the players though if they get an injury?

Are you a 60’s coach?

Please can you all stop now. It’s so embarrassing, I can’t bare it

True, it’s making this thread as dull as dishwater

 

[WilburySeagull]

I am a bit concerned about playing AJ on Wednesday because I think he should start instead of Connoly against Everton. Depends if GP thinks like me and if he thinks we could beat Everton. In the end I am happy to accept his judgement.

Fair enough. I'll hold my piece.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

I'd go for the same team as near as possible that beat Preston and not worry about the opposition.

SHOO. IT IS SHOO. DAMN IT. SHOO.

I am sure people are doing it to trigger me now.

You were chomping at the bit to post that, weren’t you.......probably just wet your appetite.

 

[Ozwald]

Similar team than the previous cup games, maybe one or two stronger players on the field, and definitely more first team players on the bench incase things get heated. Really want us to go out there and show manure who should have won that last match.

My personal peeves are incorrect versions of Toe the line (Tow the line) and change tack (Change tact or change track)

It is weird how certain things trigger different people and not others. I let the superfluous apostrophe in the same phrase slide!

Sure I am OCD or somesuch - my English is far from perfect and I tend to type phonetically at times which annoys the hell out of me. But I can't let it stand if I spot it. Not that anyone else really cares but it would bug me if I left it. To the point that I will Google phrases/spellings before I post to make sure I get it right. It is Social Media - not a thesis, dammit.

I believe he will play the ‘ cup team ‘ in this game.much the same as Preston and Pompey.
I just hope that our second string hammers their second string.

 

[portlock seagull]

Wrong, unless you are talking historically, it certainly isn’t anymore, they tend to buy for the first team these days. Our B team is not far off the strength of our A team

So is theirs. And their A team beat ours. What’s your point? Are you saying Utds 2nd fiddle is worse than ours? I’m hoping we’ll perform really well again, but I expect Utd to go through as I’m sure the bookies do

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

It’s a pity we’re not playing Burnley - their squad is so thin it’s like a skelington at the moment

My point is that your comment “Utds pedigree of youth is far superior to ours sadly” is wrong. Their under 23s were in the division below us last season and are currently bottom of the same league as us.

How our A and B teams do is a different point altogether.

 

[Thompson720]

Play the same 11 from yesterday. Crush them.

 

[Pint of Ale and a Burger]

I'm sure I heard potter say our cup side will play against man u in the cup because they deserve it.
I agree with him and I think he will stick to his promise as we have Everton away next in the league and our cup side is a very good side,very capable of winning.
The way jahanbaksh played when he came on against man u yesterday suggests he will absolutely rip a man u second team to pieces.

Genuine question: Why is it Shoo and not Shoe please?

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Genuine question: Why is it Shoo and not Shoe please?

It is to do with shoo-ing horses across the finish line. The sound 'shoo' to make an animal move.

Something to do with Horse Racing, apparently.

Sorry, but change tack is actually correct. It is a sailing term.
