The9 Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 To clear up the Away Goals thing : These are the results of last season's JPT Southern Area Final : Southern Final Luton 1-1 Brighton 17-02-2009 Brighton 0-0 Luton 20-01-2009 As you can see, it was 1-1 on aggregate and the Second leg went to penalties : Football League Trophy - Southern Final second leg - KO 19:45 Luton 1 (1) - 1(1) Brighton Craddock 2 Forster 20 Aggregate score 1 - 1 Luton win 4 - 3 on penalties

Mr saint Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Not at all? Seems like an unfair advantage to MK Dons tonight in that case.
Um Bongo Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Mr saint said: Not at all? Seems like an unfair advantage to MK Dons tonight in that case. Well it works in our favour having the second leg at home. I'd take a draw/win this evening back to ours.
The9 Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Mr saint said: Not at all? Seems like an unfair advantage to MK Dons tonight in that case. No, no relevance of away goals at all. As per last season's Southern Area Final, above. It couldn't be any clearer (unless they've changed the rules, which they haven't). How does that "unfair advantage" logic work ? We both play home and away, we both know there's no difference in goals scored home or away if we end up level on aggregate, and we get to take any tie-breaking penalty shoot-out at St Mary's. The only way it would be an unfair advantage to MK would be if there was no second leg, in which case a discussion about away goals would be somewhat pointless anyway...
Deanovski Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 davis thomas--fonte--perry--harding wotton--schneiderlin Antonio Lallana papa---Lambert well that buggered up
maxi_sopez Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 weird question i dont have time to go home before the game, so will be bringing with me a rucksack with a laptop and stuff in it, that will be ok to take in the stadium yeah, or do i need to find a locker at the railway station ?
Dan Johnson Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 I would be happy with a Draw to be honest, not sure if away goals count but in case they do i'm going for 2-2

Dimond Geezer Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Quote ]My point was actually that there have been no "double" away goals ever in the history of football' date=' and it's a stupid inaccurate phrase that means nothing and is utterly misleading[/b'], :smt015 but that's a useful link nevertheless. In the event of scores being level: - 14.4.1 at the end of ninety minutes’ play in all rounds apart from the Final; and 14.4.2 after the conclusion of the two legs in each Area Final, the winner shall be determined by the taking of kicks from the penalty mark in accordance with the Laws of Association Football. So no away goals rule at all, then ?! Yeah, I know, I never said anything different. I was merely reinforcing your post by providing some evidence, which you have kindly copied & pasted into this post. HTH
sussexsaint Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Not got a good feeling about tonight, feel vulnerable with the injuries to key players

Are you going there tonight m8? Anyone else up for a london meet?
Saint Stimp Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 team Vs MK Dons. Davis. Thomas, Fonte©, Perry, Mills. Wotton, Schneiderlin, James, Lallana, Antonio. Lambert.
Saint_Jonny Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 its a cup semi final! Im getting excited!
Arizona Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Official Line Up: Davis Thomas - Fonte© - Perry- Mills Antonio - Wotton - Schneiderlin - James - Lallana Lambert.
Tamesaint Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Hmmm Fonte captain. We could regret the choice of full backs..... but apart from that , this could be a good team. I quite like the look of the midfield.
John B Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Tamesaint said: Hmmm Fonte captain. We could regret the choice of full backs. No body else I guess
S-Clarke Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 I really hope Mills take's his chance tonight. Pard's has been quoted recently saying that he's concerned about his progress....so tonight will go a long way in showing pard's if he has a future with us or not. i've always thought he's had ability.
Saint_clark Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 I think Mills has fantastic potential. I just hope the on and off again sub thing didn't completely wreck his confidence.
Arizona Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Saw Mills playing LB for the reserves last season. Looked excellent in that match, some great bombing reserves. Was well over a year ago though and against Swansea reserves. Thomas is better than James IMO, so not all that bothered there.
Saint_Jonny Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Mills the only obvious weak spot in that lineup defensively, wotton could put in a decent shift tonight given the scale of the game I reckon.
SuperMikey Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 John B said: No body else I guess Except for Wotton, who was captain at Plymouth for ages. And Davis, who was our captain for the majority of the season. And also Thomas and Perry who have both had captain status in games for this club and others. So yeah, nobody else really

Stu Man Do Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Anyone else disappointed for Waigo that he hasnt got a start considering his previous input to this cup run! Bart really deserved to keep his spot as well IMO. Bit worried with that team really I suspect our midfield to struggle a bit and Mills will probably get a bit of a roasting so hope he can come through this ok!
SuperMikey Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Matthew Le God said: He was talking about the fullbacks not the captain. Well, I would've thought the fullbacks would be the obvious choices, apart from maybe James at RB, although Pards has said that he'll be taking a more midfield role.
John B Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Matthew Le God said: He was talking about the fullbacks not the captain. Yes I was talking about the FBs
krissyboy31 Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Bart, Aaron Martin, Papa, Holmes and Saga on bench

I wonder if he'll be put on or if he's just there to give us an attacking option other than Papa?

richardc Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 so holmes has a great game on sat and gets dropped - james does nothing and is included

krissyboy31 Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 John B said: Why does Pardew have to Tinker he played Holmes last game now he plays Antonio 5 man midfield to give more protection to the enforced changes to the back four.
Arizona Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 krissyboy31 said: Bart, Aaron Martin, Papa, Holmes and Saga on bench Fair play to a) Pardew for giving him a second chance and b) Saga for earning it. Three decent options on the bench there with the last three. Nothing wrong with Bart or Martin, but I doubt they'd change the match.

If that was the case why play him for so long on saturday . Just think we should try keeping the same players if possible Edited 20 January, 2010 by John B

Um Bongo Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 Got enough on the bench if we need it - Saga to come on and be our unlikely saviour? Bit Miffed about Waigo not starting though.
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 (edited) We're looking good on Sky, we seem to have outnumbered MK Dons fans by a country mile!! Such a **** poor turn out from MK Dons, let's turn this into a home game! Edited 20 January, 2010 by Thorpe-le-Saint
Thorpe-le-Saint Posted 20 January, 2010 Posted 20 January, 2010 (edited) Any chance of you opening up that 1st half thread Ponty? Fonte SOOO close, YELLOWS! Edited 20 January, 2010 by Thorpe-le-Saint
