The XI.

Probably is a 4-4-2 with Casey at RB, CJ and Carey on the wings with TJJ and Lavery up top, but would love to be wrong and have them lineup in 3-4-1-2 with Garbutt at LM, CJ at RM with Carey at CAM with Lavery and TJJ up top.

 

[BFCAleman]

I thought maybe 3-5-2 …

 

[hertfordseasider]

Are Stewart & Madine still on the grass??

 

[Devonshire]

A lot to like about this side, the Viking, Casey, Carey and AntwiI I think can all play a part this season, just need to give them a chance. Hamilton need to play to get his comfy back. Madine

 

[Ormergod]

Pleased to see Gretarsson back. At least Sunderland arent playing that big Scottish lump up front.

 

[gjr69]

I'm guessing Carey is having a go at right back, right thing to do just in case anything happens to Connolly. Centre midfield is looking like a problem area as well. No way could we risk Dougall tonight, Stewart is unlikely to get less injury prone and obviously Ward is injured.
Hopefully Antwi and Carey show us that they can do a job in there.

Thought that myself.

 

[TangerinePeel]

Was just about to put a comment about why are we playing Keogh over Casey (more game time for a lad with potential over someone at the end of their career) then realised we are playing Casey, must be three at the back surely?

Also we have a habit of having people at the club with very similar names at the same time, no wonder Chizzy gets confused. Brett Gerrity, Ben Garrity, Mike Garrity, Ellis Simms, Jack Sims, Oliver Casey, Sonny Carey..

 

[Seasider1953]

Shame Stewart not made the squad !

 

[SwannDangerous]

Keoghs playing, we're fucked

 

[Halifax71]

Another moan, in block M for a change, usually U.

They might be padded, but zero legroom.

Get it sorted.

 

[Jaffa_The_Hut]

Are Stewart & Madine still on the grass??

My thoughts exactly.

Didn’t Critchley say Stewart, Madine, Getarrson Eggpatato could all be in contention for the Bournemouth game?

Seems odd these two still missing tonight’s game would have been just what they needed a 90 minute run out in a cup no one really cares about.

Shame, makes him being ready for Saturday slim.

 

[boomeranger]

Any ex pats know if the game is on ttv?
I have been buying single match passes so far, to see if it was worth getting the season pass. But can't see it. If I get the season pass will it include this game?
I managed to watch the Coventry have (eventually)

If it's three at the back, who's wide right? James or Garbutt could be wide left (we've played Garbutt in front of James before). I honestly don't know who goes out right in front of the back 3. CJ? Maybe Antwi can do it? It would be interesting.

I'm kinda thinking it's Keogh and Viking at the back, but then who is RB? Casey? James and Viking can both play LB, dunno about RB.

 

[Grumpy_no_more]

Radio Lancs commentary is on DAB - with Chizzy and Brett.

I think it's the same as before, no TV and you'll have to pay for audio if you want it.

Audio pass, 4.50 per month or 45 quid for the season. UTMP!

Cheers pal!

 

[coloradoan]

I know it's only 4.50, but after paying 170 for video matches for the season and with the audio commentary accompanying the video, it feels lousy to be asked to pay for an audio subscription that effectively is only valuable for non-televised Carabao Cup games. Think I'll go find the live graphic play by play thing...

 

[TSSeasider]

SS news commentating about the booing of the kneeling.

Listening; it sounded like Blackpool fans were chanting, so probably Mackems.

 

[Matesrates]

Shayne!

 

[Yarmouth Seasider]

Gooooooooaaaaaaallllllll Lavery

9' - The Seasiders make one of their early opportunities count, as Shayne Lavery pokes home after good work from Tyreece John-Jules down the left.

 

[Chunkylad]

This kids got a bright future ahead of him.

 

[Matesrates]

Uh o

 

[Macseasider]

Oh poo

Did one of those defenders happen to be Keogh?

It’s just not good enough

It's OK I've heard sadler is gonna removing every other row... not just to give more leg room but ultimately allow the hotdog seller to move around the stadium

 

[EagleDay]

Looking for a whipping boy already eh?

 

[1966_and_all_that]

Keoghs playing, we're fucked

Stop being a drama queen.

 

[EagleDay]

They're playing the offside trap well enough so it seems.

 

[glasshalffull]

Embleton on in the 2nd half to win it for Sunderland looks like it could be the story tonight?

 

[1966_and_all_that]

The Viking sounds good at times but also seems to be making mistakes. Is that just rustiness from being out for so long?

 

[TangerTonyGreen]

Nobbers one down at Morecambe.

 

[BlossomHill]

Nobbers one down at Morecambe.

They are winning 2-1 ?

 

[Sadler's Brylcreem]

The EFL have shot themselves in the foot with this decision tonight. Do sometimes wonder what goes through their heads.

 

[TangerTonyGreen]

Apologies it’s 1-2 to the nobbers.

 

[Albert Ross]

Nobbers one down at Morecambe.

Sorry but they were leading 2-0 it’s now 1-2 at ht

It’s a start.

According to BBC Nobbers
are 2-0 up

 

[tangysider]

John Jules is a passenger

 

[incredible_edibles]

We clearly shook the Cherries up .. 6-0 down at Norwich!!

 

[585 = never give up]

After so long out, his timing is bound to be off - training ground fitness is one thing, being match fit with good timing is another.
This game will do him the world of good.

 

[BFC76]

The stats are half time are pretty even ..

49%/51% Possession
5-3 shots
3-2 shots on target
