    0-3 against Arsenal U 21 in Checkatrade.

    Not sure if played first team but not a bad omen ahead of the weekend.

    Made 11 changes - none of their team that won at Oxford on Sunday started.

    Coventry's under 11 girls team would beat us with a last minute goal, such is our luck there.

    Wouldn't have thought Stendel will have bothered going to scout, when they won't have any of the same players, up against us this weekend.

    The system would have been the same so should still be worth the scout

    Exactly, I think the last time we beat them (away) was August 25th 1923.

    That can't be true as it is against the competition rules. Screenshot_2018-09-13-09-38-14.png

    So to be in the rules does that mean 4 players from last night have to start this weekend?

    Its an irrelevant argument as I am ok playing Covs strongest side. They didn't look that good and got lucky last weekend.

    Not all the possibilities have to be satisfied. One of them has to to count as a qualifying player. So any player that would start either the game before or the game after counts. But also any player that has made 50 first team starts in his entire career counts. Maybe they have a few of those in there as well. And do they have any loans from Premier League / Cat One Academy teams as well? It's pretty easy to get to 4 that way.

    I reckon that despite making 11 changes they still had six qualifying players:-

    Tom Davies, Abu Ogogo, Liam Kelly (the one Jonno was gonna bring to Oakwell), Jordy Hiwula and Amadou Bakayoko will all have 50+ appearances and Dujon Sterling is on loan from Chelsea.
