Hardly disappointing. Our travelling fans deserve to see a team with a chance of winning.

Our traveling fans bought tickets fully aware we are going to field a weakened side. I'm sure every single one that travels tomorrow would be happy seeing the eds and going out if it kept key players fit and fresh to help us retain the trophies currently ours.

Been thinking about how I will tackle the steps this time.
Tried the start off quick and just go for it…that definitely doesn’t work.
Putting your mind elsewhere, like a beach or a favourite memory is good for a few flights then the pain kicks in and reality returns.
Under no circumstances join in a sing song as you rise.Resist.This is important.
Plan tomorrow is to use handrail to take the intense strain off the legs and to stop every three flights and pretend to check my messages.
I’ll be setting off about 7.30 Newcastle time if you want to join me.

Just get in the lift
 
So we’re apparently having to travel back by coach on a wed night from all the way up there with a 3pm Sat kick off awaiting us.

What the fuck
 
All the sub players NEED to play, I'd be shocked if we didn't start any of these based on Pep's comments about being fresh for the premier league. My guess is this:

Ortega

Rico
3 defenders who are fit

Phillips
Nunes

Doku
Bobb
Gomez

Haaland


Please rest Alvarez he runs like crazy and played non-stop. Haaland's game is such that he can play 90 mins every game and I don't think he'd be that tired because he doesn't press as crazy as others on the team.

Gomez should be given a chance on the LW again, putting Doku RW.

Rico is guaranteed to start, I put him RB as its more natural for him, and Doku can cut in, but wouldn't be surprised if Pep plays him LB, and plays a defensive player RB.

Coming through the Dales in the storm will be fun. But they'll probably stop for a fry-up somewhere.
