Fa cup has no bearing on that


So losing to a league two side has no relevance?


Arrogant Stam has already said the side are fatigued expect him to rotate, there's his excuse for another loss


Thats a strange comment? Maybe he wants to give his side a rest so they are fresh against Hull OR maybe wants to give other players a chance to impress....

Look like they cannot be arsed. I dont buy into players being fatigued playing 1 or 2 games a week.

I would worry about the financial viability of the club if we went down. There is also no guarantee that we would win promotion back to the Championship. Crowds would decline to 10k and possibly less which would make for an utterly dismal atmosphere.

He definitely said he would be fielding....in his words "a weakened side" against Stevenage.....
My heart sank at that point......Id love a decent cup run after this seasons fiasco's

If "weakened" means leaving out players out of form that he won't drop otherwise, then we may actually improve! He does seem to persevere with players who have done well for him before, regardless of current performance levels, way past the point where most supporters have lost patience.

my guess is we'll go with something like

Anssi, Gunter/Watson (if fit), Ilori, Blackett, Richards, Kelly, Evans, Edwards/Clement, Beerens, Dadi, Popa/McCleary

which is pretty reasonable. A few with a point to prove which might help

If a weakened side involves none of the first xi it's got a better chance of winning. Players with somethingto prove unruined by recent performance.

I'd take something like:

Jaakkola
Watson, Ilori, Moore, Richards
Evans, Bacuna, Barrett
Popa, Bodvarsson, Beerens

Cheers, I've lost track of who in the Academy is where. I'm sure you get the gist.
