Too strong for my liking

 

[MKY]

Tom Davies!!!!!! I am the resurrection!

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

We'll win easily then

I hope O'Hare is just being rested

 

[Ukkonen]

Quite a good lineup, I like it.

Too often we put out poor sides in the cup, why not have blast at it this year?

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Ben Mee back after sometime out with hand injury.

 

[Shakin Stevens is my Dad]

It's free if you have Sky channels

Nope

I mean the league has been a dead rubber for months, but at the same time you can look at the crowd today and say if the fans can't be bothered, we shouldn't be either

 

[relish]

Anyone seen Ryan Oné? Missing person.

Only Soumare survives from the last league game. This is basically our reserve XI. Which shows our strength in depth.

Shows we have a strong squad, plenty rested and Tanganga and O'Hare day off

 

[LiamBG]

Anyone know how many Mansfield have sold?

 

[WestYorksBlade]

Can’t win. Field a weakened side, Wilder gets daggers (rightly imo) for not respecting the opposition or the FA cup; field a decent side on paper and we’ve overdone it risking injury to key players and should be playing the kids (according to some some on social media)

This is neither. This is just moderate rotation not giving any fringe players a chance.

 

[silver blade]

I travelled to Mansfield in January 1969 FA cup 3rd round we lost 2-1 don't embarrass me again, I can't remember who cored our goal

And I’m guessing if he’d made 11 changes and played the kids you would have moaned about that too .

 

[Uganda Blade]

Strong line up:

I wonder who is going to be the DM?
Arblaster or Soumare?

That's what I bought a ticket expecting to see, so no

(Barring Davies) I’d say this is a fairly strong side but maybe I’ll eat those words come half past four

 

[MTBlade]

It's not, looked this morning

I think you can watch it through the Discovery+ app/channel that I think you get as part of your sky package.

[PaulPeschBlade]

WerrrrrrzzzzzzzzZZZZZ Shackleton

 

[FriethBlade]

Anyone seen Ryan Oné? Missing person.

Hes one who is definitely going out in loan. Rotherham are the rumour

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

It’s a strong team but it never works when you make that many changes.

You have to pay separately for TNT sport, add on via mysky, £31 a month

You can't, you get basic Discovery+ with Sky but need a TNT Sports subscription to watch any sport on it

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Anyone know how many Mansfield have sold?

I got told 4K by my customer that’s a Stags fan

 

[jt64]

If that is the rumour then there is no reason not to include him. Rotherham are out of the cup so they lose nothing by us making him cup tied (if that is even still a rule)

Weirdly, at first glance that looks like a few first teamers, and it would have been a couple of months ago. Right now though there's only really one of Arblaster/Soumaré from our best 11.
