* Official Match Thread: Scunthorpe Away *

[Fidel Castro]

So still no Vieira? Beginning to wonder if that story about him not really getting through the medical might have some truth to it...

Honestly, the man in our team that I'm most worried about is Taylor, he's going to be incredibly rusty.

Nah, he'll play a blinder today.

[Mark (Blue Army)]

Was thinking the same :( other than him playing and NDJ not being rested for Zabba im pretty happy with it.

I'm happy with that team, let's be honest we should have more than enough to get past Scunthorpe, if we go out then these players should hang their heads in shame. The 2nd leg semi has to be priority and making sure Tevez and Given are totally rested makes absolute sense, the only two positions that we really can't replace with quality with the current squad availability. Looking forward to seeing another kid trying out too, the academy could reach 30 first team debuts today depending on subs used couldn't it?

[Hinch's 5 Fingered Salute]

Interesting team. Nice to see he has a lot of faith in the kids, It will be good to see what Ibrahim is made of and good for Cunningham to get on the bench. He doesn't do things by half thats for sure. The team that is put out should win either way.

[shawzy]

Ibrahim left MF ...

[The Man In Blue]

commentators on t'radio are well looking for an upset.
