Here we go again. Another chance for some players to show what they are worth to the first team.
We should be able to top the group with a win over Walsall who are a steady middle of the table in L2.
 
would like to see Forde at rb and Clare rw.
Shodipo has to have another good amount of minutes.
keep Long and Moore at the back - the more they play together hopefully we’ll get tighter at the back.
Stevens in goal, as for the rest, give some of the youngsters a go

With no game this Saturday it would make sense to play a few of the fringe players maybe bringing 2/3 senior players a run out as sun win the 2nd half
 
As far as I can work out - if we win we are through // and if we draw we are through, regardless of whether we win shoot out or not.
If we lose and the other game in the group (next week) is a draw we go through, again regardless of who wins the shoot out at that game
If we lose and Bristol R beat Chelsea U21 we are out.
If we lose and Chelsea beat Bristol then it goes to GD (we are currently 2 ahead), then GS (we are currently 1 ahead), then unclear but if it is head to head then we will go through....

Also, not found any indication as to when the second round games will be played

Also, to meet the squad strength requirements we just have to start with at least 4 outfield players from the following:
Clare, Ruffs, Moore, Long, Mous, Gorrin, Bran, Forde, Sykes, MCGuane, Kelly, Hall, Taylor, Winnall and Shodipo

Or put another way - no more than 6 from Atkinson, Cooper, Hanson, Napa, Agyei, Asonganyo, Osei Yaw + Jones/Elechi/Lopes/Spasov/Lofthouse/etc
