Orient or Plymouth in 3rd round - away

Only real issue is amount of travel if it turns out to be Plymouth (given EL travel)

Ideal to play a few of the fringe first team squad/kids - CCV, White, Cirkin et al
 
Possible 4 away games on the trot.
17/09/202017:00Lokomotiv PlovdivA
20/09/202012:00SouthamptonA
22/09/2000Orient/PlymouthA
24/09/2020Botoşani /ShkëndijaA
 


And it neither begins nor ends there.

Sep 13: Everton (H)
Sep 17: Lokomotiv Plovdiv (A)
Sep 20: Southampton (A)
Sep 22: Leyton Orient/Plymouth Argyle (A)
Sep 24: Botosani/Shkendija (A)
Sep 27: Newcastle (H)
Sep 29/30: EFL Cup Fourth Round
Oct 1: Europa League Play-off Round
Oct 3: Manchester United (A)

Hopefully the United date is pushed to Sunday 10/4 when the TV spots are picked, but still.

I don't know if anyone has a deep enough squad to survive that but we certainly don't. We have one recognized center forward.

Regardless, I think we have no option other than to play a number of u23's in the league cup matches - White, Cirkin, CCV, Bowden, Roles if still here etc - as the frequency of matches makes it impossible to rotate
 
I've just shit myself.... No more loans..... All hands on deck!!!! :lamelaaghh:


Let's get that striker in the bag this week too!
 
Honestly, until fans are back, I couldn’t give a shit who we’re playing. It’s not the same sport, culture or experience. Accepting this rubbish as normal or acceptable is killing football. No fans = no game.
