Carabao Cup will get the Super U's rocking at Jonny's place 21:11 - Aug 13 with 1369 viewsdurham_exile

After a very bright start to the season JM takes his charges to the quaintly named Jonny-Rocks Stadium. Apparently, Jonny-Rocks is a high-end Chauffeur and business travel transport company (I looked it up).

Gary Johnson is the manager and they have had a poor start to the season with league defeats but will be looking to secure a victory in the Carabao Cup against confident Colchester. Extra time has been scrapped so if the match finishes all square we move straight to penalties in the conventional ABAB format.

JM is likely to make number of changes which makes considerable sense with a tough fixture at Mansfield on Saturday. However, the League Cup offers the opportunity to go toe to toe with one of the bigger teams and we should not therefore either take the opposition or the competition too lightly on Tuesday evening.

It would be apposite to give Bailey Vose the opportunity to get a game between the sticks and play Ryan Gondoh and Brandon Comley in midfield. Harry Pell should be on the bench against his old team whilst the predicted bench will still look very strong if required.

Vose

Jackson Eastman Prosser Vincent-Young

Senior Comley Gondoh Dickenson

Collins Mandron

Subs:

Barnes (D) Barnes (A) Kent Wright Pell Szmodics Nouble

Most disappointingly is the news that Norris remains side-lined with injury niggles.

Weather should be reasonable and the pitch good.

The Super U’s will be looking to maintain their unbeaten start to the season. Winning becomes infectious.

Safe journey to the travelling faithful.

Enjoy the game and 1-0 to the U’s

Full marks to JM a very attacking line up and 3,4,3 formation which should prove too strong for Cheltenham.

Bench is strong too.

This is character building tonight, so it is up to the U's to knuckle down and start to play some football.

A mistake from Kent led to the goal but the U's are shaky at present.

Still early days - Up the U's

Well that didn't take long. Of course, this being the league cup I fully expect us to lose. It's traditional.

For some strange reason Eastman started on the left and Kent the right now corrected but still trailing.

Gerry looks like the handle has fallen off tonight. But we still have 42 minutes to find a goal.

Bit of needle creeping in now.

Come on we need to get back into this match.

Especially as Mansfield are 4-1 against Accrington Stanley in their cup match.

Test of character now.

Oh well, but we did well to at least get back in to the game for a penalty shoot-out.

Yes, Wessex, we did........and we did not lose in real time. Cheltenham seem to be somewhat tricky opponents for the U's.

However, it was a draw which means that the first 10 fixtures of this season see us unbeaten. I hope that we can remember how we have started the season defensively strong before Saturday......Mansfield got 6 last night!

"10 fixtures of this season see us unbeaten"

Are you including pre-season or have I missed 7 games?

Yes whales it includes the friendlies..........I need anything to keep my optimism alive and in most previous seasons we have included a friendly v that team up the road, lost it and it's never done us any good. This year we didn't play 'em and I can't tell you how relieved I was. Little things enable me to keep the faith, pathetic really.
