I would say they are first team players and would be fine

 

That is not the rule for the JPT though.

 

The rule is you get a list of all Southampton players and order them by how many 1st team games they have played this season.

 

6 of the team for a JPT game HAVE to be in the top 11 players.

 

This rule is to stop teams playing very weakened sides.

This is the rule on the face of it. However, what you seem to be forgetting is the way you can get round these rules by suggesting players were injured/unavailable for other reasons.

 

I'm pretty sure that team would be fine. Rules like this only get enforced in extreme cases.

You seem to need at least 6 of Davis,Harding,James,Hammond,Trotman,Wotton,Schneiderlin,Lambert,Jahdi,

Thomas and Lallana

You have to play Bart because Davis isn't fit so you need at least 6 of the other 10, which strictly limits your options for fielding the reserve side you suggest.

Ah thanks for that. Learn something every day

LOL at Lambert trying to pick our team, or at least persuade AP to rest players

 

"It's hard to say what way they're going to go, I know in the last round when they played Charlton they lost their next league game due to a bit of fatigue."

I'm not sure how this rule works with injuries, I'd guess injuries are ignored otherwise people could circumvent this rule by just saying the best players are all injured. In any case Kelvin is back in training.

Apparently Neal Trotman has a total of 14 appearances (1 being as a sub) and Neil Trotman has played twice. :confused: :rolleyes:

no it means you play with 6 of the other 7 I guess

what if we had a big inhury crisis like everton are having...would we have to put 5 players on the pitch..?

 

or not play the game because the rules state we have to field our "BEST" team..?

No, it would mean you use the 7 of the 11 regulars plus 4 other players. Not a problem it the slightest. The only grey area that I'm not sure about is when you have 6 players in the top 11 injured. I'd imagine that is highly unlikely though. In that case the Football League would probably check if the injuries are genuine and give you special dispensation to play with fewer than 6 regulars.

Of the top 11 (appearance wise), Davis, Trotman, Wotton and Thomas aren't currently in the first team. So if we play Trotman, Wotton and Thomas, we only need 3 of the others (say Jaidi, Lambert and Lallana) and we are fielding a team that qualifies under the competition rules but in theory, still resting 7 of our current first XI (Bart of course has to play).

Hmmm, so Hypo's projected team is almost legal, with 5 players from our most used 11. Only one change needed then.

 

Bart

Thomas Perry Trotman Mills

Antonio Wotton Mellis Lallana

Papa Lambert

Bet we'll get a fair few walk ups as well.

 

Hmmm, don't think there will be as many walk ups tonight due to the match day prices. £18 for adults & £15 for seniors/young adults is pretty steep for this competition imo. There is also no discount for ST holders buying on the night either.

Who would you have? We don't have much available.

 

Usual first team, same as started on Saturday.Except Trotman for Perry because I just don't rate the bloke. I think this competition is important to the club.

 

plus as the club are promoting their betting service on the OS, I would be extremely hacked off if they turned out a second rate side after encouraging me to wager my hard earned on winning (not that I'm likely too,cos I never do, don't believe in betting)

That would be a pretty stupid thing to do if players are then suspended/tired/injured for Leeds. I want a strong team tonight but I understand that some players should be rested.

Been told its snowing in town so a word of warning to everyone going to wrap up warm! Looking forward to tonight, if they put a weak team out & we go pretty much full strength then we should be alright.

 

------------------Bart----------------

Thomas--Trotman-----Perry----Harding

----------------Wotton---------------

---------Mellis----------Schneiderlin---

Papa W-------------------------Lallana

----------------Lambert---------------

 

That would be my team.

what about getting lee holmes on, AL is very important to us and I feel may need a rest!

 

Now there is a guy that has fallen off the world in the last few months. Has he been injured or just not favored by Pards? He looked a bit of quality once or twice last season, that being said if AP doesn't think he is good enough I am not going to second guess him.
