I can't bring myself to talk about 'resting' players for a cup tie Vanilla, I think we should be playing our strongest possible team and that includes Given. However, I bet you're right and Guzan will start.

True. It's just a shame we are playing a team like Bolton. Yes it is at home, and they are struggling (which could make them more up for it), so would have preferred an easier ride at this stage. 

Just hope we get a good result. A lot was made about winning a trophy when the new manager came in, and this competition being the obvious target, a slip up here would increase the mutterings.

I'm really looking forward to this.

I'd rest Gabby and Given,

----------Guzan

Herd Collins Dunne Clark

Gardner Bannan Irleand

N'Zogbia Fonz Albrighton

All out attack, I'm sick of Mcleish's football already, so let's just let the reigns off and go for it

6-5 all midfielders and attackers scoring!!!

Highly unlikely that there will be any streams to this game tonight, id like to see gardner get a start but in all honesty i just cant see us winning this game : 1-2

Feeling fairly pessimistic now. Can't see any streams anywhere.

Time to start looking for wins. Had enough of us just playing to avoid defeat. 2-1 win.

same here, I've looked but there's nothing.  In other news Arsenal are 1 down.

Edit.  Well they were, now 1-1.
