Our FA Cup team to rest the first team

Smithies

Coxe Mozza Bamba Jazz

Whyte Ralls Vaulks Murphy

Ward Glatzel

The point is, we have plenty of players to step in and that's not including, Vassell, Patterson, Bogle & Traore, it's a decent squad with strength in depth.

Play the best team available for several reasons. Winning is one. Gaining confidence for the next game - swansea is another.

negatives....
not sure how much there is to gain confidence wise by beating either of those.. if we win
lose and its a proper knock though.

could pick up cards or injuries..
no doubt the manager will pick the team he sees fit depending on circumstances at the time.

Play to win certainly, chances of a good draw in the next round. But it is a chance to give some of the second string players a chance to show what they can do. It would also give some of our strikers to gain a bit of confidence (or not!) against lower league opposition.

JAZZ are you sure we are allowed to play a player on crutches
