Burton (a) pre-match thread

[Alan Harper's Tash]

I’ve been ruled out with a grade 2 ankle injury, also known in football as a Moderately Harry Kane.

I think @andyhinch should take my place in midfield.

Shit didn't know that. Why isn't it on the official website?

I'm not convinced Dax is a left back, but Pep has convinced me that he can see it in him.

Keeping it quiet until we find a long term replacement (given my age and injury history this is only likely to become a niggling thing); don’t want the transfer fee rocketing up.

And I am told Pep sees all sorts of things in Dax.

Yeah, his expected interceptions stat is off the scale

They’d have a good chance of turning it round with me playing.

Have a bet on the final score, yeah? ;-)

Sightings ahead of the match...

Name all the players featured in the GIF.

It's not only disrespectful it's utterly unprofessional. This isn't kids recreation league where people take turns bringing snacks for the team.

What if we just turned up for the second half.

 

[OB1]

Does it?

This game is what I would call the definition of a dead rubber.

None of Ederson, Laporte, Fernandinho, KDB, D.Silva, Sterling, Aguero anywhere near this game please. Completely unnecessary injury risks to take.

Of course it needs to be won.

We don't need another defeat to a third tier side in the history books, even in a so called dead rubber. Winning has to be a habit.

Also, I for one don't want to watch my team go out and perform poorly.

@andyhinch doesn't track back mate...

 

[BLUEMATT23]

If Burton get 2 early goals will the forum to into meltdown?

 

[Zenmanc]

What if we just turned up for the second half.

As long as they bring orange slices, juice boxes and bananas it should be fine.

 

[andyhinch]

@andyhinch doesn't track back mate...

I don’t even track forward :-)

I want a game...played a great wingers roll at Holy Trinity Primary in Ashton for 3 whole years (if you had 2 feet you got a game in the last year there) but as an 8/9 year old I apparently had promise.

Anyway fuck fumble off, make worsley cut in on his wrong foot and bang me in buzzers old position.

 

[vmsuhail]

Must win game.

Must not lose by 10 game.

Can't fault your hunger blue, but Worsley and Fumble are the most prominent right and left wingers on here. However, their lack of willing to track back at any point are blocking their passage to the first team at present.

 

[St.Pauli support]

Poll is still missing.
Lousy service on here.

Would take a draw right now.

A 9-1 loss would be quite the experience.

St.Pauli support. We still need to treat this tie and the Burton team and supporters with respect. The Burton supporters would have bought tickets, before the 1st leg was played, in the hope that they were still in with a chance of qualifying for the final. However that has now no chance of happening. We still have to play this tie, and it is a good chance to play some of the first team squad who have not been getting games recently. We still have to give the Burton supporters a chance of seeing some of our 1st team stars, even if it is only 7/8 of them.

We can't afford to break this run of games we are winning on by playing a weakened team, which could break the momentum that we are on right now. it will be better for us if we are playing games every week, than having a break when the F.A. cup comes round like Liverpool have. As this could break the momentum if your not playing every week.
