This match is a huge ask for our young side especially if Birmingham go strong. I think the team and the supporters should just enjoy the day but you never know . We beat Leeds who were Championship at the time. We should have our suspended players back and hopefully will be able to fill our subs bench.

We go in as underdogs. We have absolutely nothing to lose.
This should be our biggest TV audience since the Arsenal game. We're almost sold out. Let's enjoy the day and put up a good fight. We can't ask or expect anything more, but as we've seen before as Sutton supporters on more than one occasion, we have a chance.

As this is our last home game before remembrance Sunday, I hope we can join the club in showing our respects.

Town had their commemoration before the game against Exeter last Saturday, which seemed remarkably early, but there you go. Impeccably observed.

If I had two wishes it would be that the players enjoy the experience, which some might never get again, and that it helps the team & management in their development. Can't really ask for more.

Are we going to have special shirts with poppies on that could be auctioned off?

I expect the Birmingham end is, but a team that isn't really a PL standard team, not local and with no history with Sutton isn't a 5 hour queue sort of draw. Saying that probably AFC Wimbledon would have got the sell out quickly out of the teams we could have faced. For those recording the game at home, coverage starts at 1145 on the Sunday.

Still probably the 3rd/4th biggest club we have ever faced in a competitive fixture? They are really a top half champ side at least right now in terms of squad strength and spent many millions in the summer.
