Leyton Orient v Tottenham Hotspur - League Cup 3rd Round - Postponed - Spurs receive a bye

[Gatsby]

Game will either be off or they’ll move it to the Spurs stadium. No way it’s rescheduled, no way there’s room for it.

 

[Airfixx]

That's some reverse ferret, as Private Eye would say

No. Not at all.

......You think otherwise? Perhaps you can name some names.... Who said they WANTED Hart to play as #2?

The assumption was that Hart replaced Voorm with 2 benefits: Cheaper and is HG.

Does changing the venue magically cure their players of Coronavirus?

 

[dmize1]

Yeah, I'm not sure I'd even be comfortable playing against players that tested negative, if they had a large contingent that tested positive. Not worth the risk.

What shot do we have against Chelsea, given we have a game 2 days and 2 days after?

Classy

 

[kingdawson]

Mourinho has confirmed Kane, Dele, Lamela, Hart, Aurier and Sissoko will start vs Leyton Orient.

Kane???? Why???

 

[Jimmy G]

Kane???? Why???

I assume Kane won't be going to Macedonia then

 

[dmize1]

I assume Kane won't be going to Macedonia then

Agree feels like without a backup striker Kane plays one and Son plays the other.

 

[Coys1955]

I assume Kane won't be going to Macedonia then

Pretty sure he will.

 

[ShutUpPatrik]

Kane???? Why???

Kane most likely demanded to be involved. He holds a torch for Leyton since he got his first pro goal there. and he's their kit sponsor for this season.

Orient will have to forfeit if they can't get a squad together. Dangerous precedent if the fixture is rescheduled.

Imagine if there's a title run-in and one team's star striker is injured. The whole team is then magically struck down with Coronavirus.

Can Orient not use their under 21s or under 18s?

AFAIK the rules are pretty black and white... If you can't field a team, you forfeit the fixture. Covid, injuries or whatever.

Even if they field the U18 they were in contact with some positives. Why take the chance?

No option now but for Orient to withdraw from the competition and we progress. Too late in the day and only feasible option at this point.

 

[pakistani-spur]

Was kinda looking forward to the game tomorrow but i'll take it.

Haha, perhaps the lads can go on a city break with all this free time they now have on their hands.

I hear Tetovo, Macedonia is lovely at this time of year
