Talking about Johsons Paint tommorrow he said
Alan Thompson will have a run-out too. I left him out against Yeovil because
he has only trained for ten days out of 28 and looks a bit off the pace."
So it looks like he was basically dropped on Saturday after his poor showing
at Oldham - the right decision - and shows that he is not afraid to make the
hard decisions or to leave out those perceived to be his favourites
Looking forward to Darlo and hope we do have a decent turnout (may be
affected by the competition and fact that we are on Sky Sports 2) may be
doubtful since most of my mates are not bothering and they may be typical.
Lets hope it is our first chance to see De Costa in the flesh and that there
will be run outs for other players eg Flo \ Huntington and Westlake.
I have read that the rules do not allow wholesale changes so must have the
nucleus of a proper team, kids in for free, no extra time just pens, etc

Rules are
The availability of free tickets for children forms part of The League's
ongoing commitment, through its 'Fans of the Future' initiative, to encouraging
the next generation of supporters to watch live football at their local League
club.
With this in mind, The League has also, for the first time ever in a domestic
cup competition, scrapped extra-time in drawn matches. Instead, matches will be
decided by penalty shoot-outs at the end of 90 minutes. With clubs aiming to
attract more families to matches this will not only add to the excitement, but
also avoid late night finishes to games.
Clubs have also made a renewed commitment to fielding full-strength teams
throughout the Johnstone's Paint Trophy. Under the competition's rules, clubs
will be required to include in their matchday line-up a majority of the 11
players that have appeared most often in first team games this season.
Also, for the first time in the competition's history, prize money will be
awarded exclusively to the winners of matches, in each successive round, from a
total prize fund of £350,000 - with the competition's winners set to secure a
total jackpot of over £90,000.
