Thread: Stags in the Cup.

  1. #1

    Question Stags in the Cup.

    The Clarets have a break from the demands of the EPL and take on the Stags at Turf Moor in the 4th Round of the FA Cup. Kicks off Saturday 14th February at 15.00.

    A decent Cup run might be just the sort of tonic Burnley Football Club needs, but word is Mansfield Town and their fans expect a bit of a FA Cup upset.

    Will Scott Parker pick his strongest team? Would Clarets fans rather forget the Cup and concentrate on the EPL?

    It's Score Predictor time. Will the Clarets progress to the 5th Round? I'm not expecting another Valentines Day massacre but still expect us to edge it.

    Your thoughts please.

    My one and only concern sinkov is how great will the squad decimation be come June? I suspect the squad will be sold piecemeal and off we will need to go again.

    No doubt some will be offloaded but who would command the initial fees paid?

    Put out our strongest side today.Other than a miracle we are relegated so treat the Cup as a way of generating a bit
    of money because we are going to need it when the summer comes.Be interesting to see what sort of side we are
    going to be able to muster for next season.

    Play the B team and the under 21’s because that will be all that is left come August.

    It's a bit of a ragbag up top, but it should still be capable of winning.
