Southend Utd (A) Capital One Cup, Tues 12th August 7.45pm
A trip to Essex for this first round match in the League Cup, and aren't we due a cup run? :D
Southend, managed by Phil Brown, started their League 2 campaign with a 0-1 win at Accrington courtesy of an 85th minute penalty converted by Lee Barnard, who signed a one-year deal on leaving Southampton.
No real form to help judge the outcome of this game, but much may depend on whether Walsall are able to get any previously-injured players on to the pitch (Cook, Mantom), and also whether any striker deals are finalised in the next day or two (Manset).
Let's be optimistic, and go for a 0-2 away win, goals from Grimes and Benning. :D

I'll be there, and personally hope that Deano gives Morris a chance on the wing and pushes Grimes to the centre, Baxo on the bench for Clifford. Personally I want to see how we play without Sawyers because he is so fudge frustrating at times.

1-4 away win as possession football gets converted away at a frustrated Saaaarfend. Evo to wear white stilettos to fit in with the locals, but sadly none of them wear white bras.
First 'Smith out' chant to come after their seventeenth minute equaliser; humble pie eaten for rest of match.

I have my ticket but have a meeting at 3:00 in Willenhall. Just hope it doesn't overrun and pray the M25 is clear. :?

Re: Southend Utd (A) Capital One Cup, Tues 12th August 7.45
I would rest Sawyers, but not based on his last game just to keep him fit for Bradford. If we start off with a high tempo like the second half at Vale then we will do very well.
0-2 to Walsall.
Grimes and Bradshaw..

This is the second in a quartet of games that will test the much-vaunted theory that we need a replacement for Butler's dominance in the air:
Port Vale (Pope)
Southend (Corr)
Bradford (Hanson)
Leyton Orient (Henderson)
All players who bully defenders in the air. Let's see how we get on.

Re: Southend Utd (A) Capital One Cup, Tues 12th August 7.45
The Racing Post make Southend one of their four League Cup tips of the day. We usually get a result when they oppose us, so fingers crossed.
What's possibly more relevant is the fact that Brown is rotating his squad and trying out a new formation. Mmmm, experimental.

Same as played at Vale on Saturday, a little surprised Clifford doesn't start.

Apparently Southend have made seven changes to their team tonight, following their victory over Accrington Stanley on Saturday.
Must have a bigger squad than us then!

Re: Southend Utd (A) Capital One Cup, Tues 12th August 7.45
As I said, he's already a walking yellow card. How long before he gets a stupid red 5 minutes into a vital game. If he makes it 3 in 3 on Saturday I'd fine him if I was Smith.

I'm not sure that he did get booked at Vale, just looked like a lengthy ticking off to me.

Correct - according to the BBC, Chambers was booked, Grimes wasn't.
