Burnley v Derby County Carabao Cup Second Round

[outwoodclaret]

An intriguing tie. Burnley are fresh from a very welcome 2-0 home win v Sunderland. Derby meanwhile have just picked up their first league point with a 1-1 home draw v Bristol City. This followed defeat away to Stoke on the opening day of the Championship season and then a 3-5 home loss to free scoring Coventry City. The Clarets will be happy to have a home tie after NINE successive away Cup draws. Manager Scott Parker will probably field a strong side to face the Rams though Esteve will probably be rested after picking up a knock v the Black Cats. Danger man for the visitors is striker Carlton Morris. Still only 29 Morris was a prolific goalscorer with previous club Luton Town. Other threat: The Floodlights. If BFC?s electrician can?t get them fixed we won?t be watching anyone on Tuesday night.

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Weiss, Sonne, Worrall, Tuanzebe, Pires, Ramsey, Cullen, Larsen, Barnes, Tchaouna & Edwards will see the rams off Sir Outwood and no mistake.

These early EFL games are full of shocks, whether PL teams just use them as fitness builders as we will do, and the other team is actually a team really needing money from progression. So on paper, yes BT but in reality who knows. Look at what happened in the FA Cup last season, they wanted and needed it a lot more.

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Frankly wmd I don't give a $hit about it, we are away at United on Saturday, that's where our priorities should lie.

[wmdave_b]

Priorities yes agree BT, but with a huge squad, it has a usefulness to stay in it for as long as possible without overloading players, game time for peripherals and youth. Hope we can stay in it. For tonight's game the time could not have need much better.

Lots of our players need game time. Play them and risk an adverse result I say.

We can rest a number of key players for the Manchester United game as you point out BT and still put out a strong team. We seem in general better prepared this time round in the PL but I will be happier when our injured/not ready are available for selection.

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Me too# Sir Outwood.

[outwoodclaret]

Eleven changes tonight and that is still a very strong line up.

[alfinyalcabo]

Nice to see Ra.sey back and scoring as well. Decent goal.

[The Bedlington Terrier]

The lads have obviously not played together before and Worrall is only just a tad slower than sinkov and he is slow.

[outwoodclaret]

So Tresor comes on as a late sub for Flemming and sets up the winning goal. There must be a decent player there and it’s a pity we have seen so little of it.

[alfinyalcabo]

Thought Sonne had a good game.

[sinkov]

Things are looking up, play the Stiffs and we still win.

If you read this Rammy,unlucky mate,your lads deserved a cracking at penalties mate.
