This is one of two realistic chances to getting to Wembley this season and Matt is taking this game seriously so there will be a strong side out tonight. There is news on subs that may not please at least one poster on this forum😉 www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/59422606Match preview: LINK

If you change 5 players that's half of your outfield players that started. Honestly i feel it makes a bit of a mockery of the game but i can understand the reasoning.

As a consequence of injuries, we were only able to name 6 substitutes on Saturday - including one goalkeeper and Dundo who is predominantly our fitness coach these days. Wouldn't be surprised if we were in similar position this evening.

Controversial view maybe, and no doubt I will get slated on here! But….and I know there is a Wembley final at stake but even so I struggle to see the point of this cup competition.
A 46 game league season, FA Cup and league cup enough for me to be honest.

I guess the EFL take the view that most of the clubs will get knocked out of the League Cup & FA Cup in early rounds so this gives them the chance to play at Wembley.

We've already got 50k in prize money so far, more than the other 2 combined. Decent progress in this cup could be very handy for the club.

I doubt that Enzio has trained for a few weeks prior to the last few days given his original diagnosis - so I would have thought that he might need a bit longer to rebuild his fitness.

Three consecutive penalty saves from Dean Bouzanis see us through. Not many other keepers have achieved such an impressive feat. Edwin van de Sar and Willy Caballero both spring to mind. Good company to be in.

Sounds like a poor game, but does show not playing well we can still win. Yes on pens, so well done lads for grinding this one out.⚽️

When I saw Sutton missed their 4th and then 5th pens I was like ah FFS. Were any of the pens saved, or just missed?
