Burton (a) pre-match thread

[bada bing]

Who's everyone hoping for in the final? I'm leaning towards the spuds now with kane injury and sissoko plus dembelle leaving there squad is looking even thinner also they have llrois the clown in goal

Spuds for me. I've been waiting for revenge since 1981.

 

[Impeccable One]

I thought about both of those but surely they will be playing for the EDS the night before? Maybe if Mangalas fit he or Sandler could start Vs Burton and the other in the Checkatrade?

Mangala !? it's only 9-0 :O

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Yes , I am also leaning towards Spurs now.

Son is also away now at Asia Cup.

 

[Mike D]

Make Mangala captain and send a mainly under 21 side.

 

[shemnel]

i have this weird feeling we'll out out quite a strong side...

It’s a real shame they can’t make the EFL and Carabao fixtures work to give some of the kids a chance to play.

We have taken both comps seriously and it doesn’t feel like we have got the reward for it

Not sure if they really want a Premiership U21 side winning the checkertrade.
It would deflate the lower league sides.

I've seen a fair few Sunderland fans hoping they win to knock out a team they think shouldn't be in the competition to begin with.

The EFL almost begged the Prem clubs to play in this comp.
If they have an issue it should be with the EFL.
This issue should end the love in some City fans have with the macams.
Just another bunch of bitter jealous north east fans.
No better than the barcodes.
Geordies showing their true colours.

No, no - they weren't blaming City, it was the FL they were criticising.
