Six changes, so Sadler obviously agrees with those who think this competition is a waste of time.

Not a good sign, in my opinion, it reminds me of Merson.

Bit like man utd squad rotation but with the saddlers. This could be a long night!

106

So Smith, GK.
McEntee, Daniels and Hussey as CB.
Foulkes, RWB. Allen, LWB.
Comley, Stirk and Riley in Midfield.
Tierney playing behind DJT.

Is that how everyone else sees the line up?

Wonder how many goals that team has scored put together in their football careers. ?

Well if Iā€™d travelled up to Blackburn I wouldnā€™t be very pleased if that team turned out, to say the least.

Blackburn make 11 changes.
One player, the GK, makes his debut.

Damned if he does, damned if he doesnā€™t :see_no_evil:

Yeah stick Sadler on. He certainly didnā€™t play at many grounds like this during his illustrious playing career :joy::joy::joy::joy::joy:

Iā€™d say that anyone whoā€™s travelled to Blackburn would have surely expected these changes.

Bit itā€™s still supporting your team, so any travelling effort is appreciated. Plus would you expect the first team to play in a competition everyone holds with little regard?

Most on here wanted half those changes anyway :man_shrugging: whatā€™s the bloke meant to do?

I said two days ago will there be outrage when Blackburns reserves beat Walsalls reserves!!!

Itā€™s clear he was always going to rest key players tonight itā€™s a no brainer!

Be interesting to see how the players get on, can only do them all good to get some game time togetherā€¦

If heā€™d have picked the likes of DJ and heā€™d have picked up a long term injury Sadler would have been absolutely slated.

Weird how weā€™re playing one up top rather than matt or Marv
4 centre midfielders Iā€™d imagine!
