MotM: 28-02-26. Wealdstone (H) Kandola

[King Monkey]

My guess at a team

Dibble
Foulkes Obi Kalambyai Evans Devine
Clarke (Davis if he is available) Kandola
Walker AMS Reynolds

Palmer Hall TSS Faakye (unless he's cup tied) Francis then a bunch of academy players... The first 11 are going to have to step up as that bench is thin

It does make Davis' red card even worse if he's unavailable tomorrow, the squad for the trophy is stretched thin as it is

Devine has to play in the front three like Tuesday. Was more like a back 4 with OE and JF full backs and Devine in the front 3. Id stick to that, play Riley and Kam where Cooper and Davis were and have Clarke in the 10.

Let's hope for 5 goals minimum. 4 not enough for some

[Mirage Molby]

To continue in a positive vein:

I was really impressed with AMS’ performance when he came on against Marine. As Murray mentioned, he seemed to have found an extra yard of pace. He looked strong and brought others into play so well. He’ll cause problems tomorrow if he plays like that.

Great to see him score too*

*probably

How much money u think the club would make getting to the final, its 20k if you win which isnt loads really is it, what about tv rights and tickets etc

[COYRedder]

Keen followers of National League football I know say that Wealdstone's striker Sean Adarkwa is a real danger. His stats (4 goals in 11 starts, 18 appearances) don't look outstanding but apparently he's being coveted by clubs at a higher level.

[Pirate of Zaragoza]

Wealdstone have sold nearly 400 tickets

Looking forward to this.

Feels like a long time since our last Trophy Quarter-Final, away at Oxford United in 2010, IIRC.

Oxford are playing a Championship fixture tomorrow (bit of a crunch game against the Baggies).

And I remember leaving my heavily pregnant wife at home to go to that game at Oxford.

It’s sufficiently long ago that the bump I left her with sits his GCSEs in a couple of months!

Gary Waddock has been appointed as the new Wealdstone manager.

We wont win the league and im not out of therapy from last years failed Play-Off campaign yet so the thought of a day out at Wembley does appeal.

Do we know who is and isnt available for this one. No Cooper, Davis, Seb, Hemmo, Waldron, Minaker, anyone else?

Assume most of them are cup tied? Are they cup tied for the whole competition?


Shame we didn’t put a stipulation that Seb couldn’t play in the Trophy for Leamington.

If players can play & even get knocked out of a previous round in the FA Cup, then play again in the same cup, why different for the FA Trophy.

It could just be that the Premier League teams don't play in the FA Trophy . . . at the moment.

[Harry Aire]

Up for the cup. Lovely day for it. Can't wait!!!!
