Accrington Stanley v Blackpool EFL Trophy Matchnight Thread 06.10.20

I predict an amazing 5-0 bounce back performance from a strong side told to go out and win in style.
 
After that performance I’d definitely be playing the same team as far as possible and demand a result from them. I think giving game time to fringe players is fine if the A team is winning and performing but under these circumstances we need to start firing and this is a good opportunity
 
But this is a chance for him to find out whether some of the B team are better than the A team. There's Gabriel and Garbutt to get on the pitch.

I admit that the problem with all fan forecasts is that Critch sees them every day in training, and we don't.
 
I hope they win, we need to get a winning mentality.

A massive chance for all players to make that first team shirt theirs.

The likes of Robson, CJ and Maxwell have a shirt. The rest are up for grabs IMO.
 
Official site says....

"Luke Garbutt and Jordan Gabriel could make their first starts for Blackpool. New signing Daniel Ballard is away on international duty, whilst Daníel Grétarsson is also unavailable for the game."
 
Would like to see Madine start, still think he can play a big part this season given a chance, rest of the team looking good but cannot expect Yates to carry the front line all season.
 
A opportunity for some to get some game time but they will want to progress further to keep the IFollow revenue coming in.
I should think all of these must be in the frame.
Gabriel
Ballard
Garbutt
Williams
Virtue (If fit)
Sarkic
Kemp
Madine
 
£10 is a bit cheeky for this don't you think? level 3 teams playing their reserves. This at a time when STHs have paid out to support the club without hope or expectation of any refunds. IMHO this and other EFL trophy games should have been offered to STHs as a freebie as a good will gesture. I know that the wonderful EFL set the rates, but I think it's a bit of false economy. At even £5 I think many would purchase this, but at £10 it just seems a little excessive & will put people off. However, having looked at what's on telly tonight, I'll probably still purchase it..

Not meant to be a moan but another example of football missing a chance to give back to the fans during a hard time for many
 
Why does Critchley see Sarkic as a striker when he was effective as a AMF for Burton? Really odd one, admittedly I've not seen much of him there, but he has been poor when he has played as a Striker.
 
footballs on its arse you cant blame the EFL for charging a tenner any revenue they get helps i would have thought.
 
TEAM:
Maxwell,
Gabriel, Thorniley, Husband, Garbutt,
Williams, Ward, Anderson,
Kemp, Lubala, Sarkic
Edit to add the bench
Subs: Sims, Robson, Yates, Mitchell, Turton, Hamilton, Antwi
 
It will be interesting to see Luballa in the central role (if he is) as having seen him play, he is strong and direct and I think that would be his best position.
 
Cheers Insider, I like Antwi too, along with Shaw they are really good prospects but both need game time. Hopefully Antwi gets some tonight, it’s his birthday tomorrow 19 !!
 
Anyone got the stream going on ifollow yet? Just the spinning wheel for me??? Never not been on with less than 10 mins to ko
