As we are now through to knockout , would u play your weakest team possible to give players a rest and potentially lose the match and group top spot.. Or would u pick a team to win the group?
From googling, if we win the group, we look to be at home to a 2nd placed team from groups E to H, if we come 2nd we have to travel away to a group winner from E to H.
Teams in groups E to H include Exeter, Plymouth, Bristol Rovers, Newport and Cheltenham and closer to home Peterborough and Northampton. |  | | |  |

Same sort of line up, it's not about 'weakest possible' team it's about giving fringe players valuable game time. These fixtures always come before the international break so presuming Oxford gets called off then it will be the same case here.
There's no point of playing a deliberate weak side to then finish second and have to play an away game, we should want to win the group for the home time. A draw is enough to seal top spot. |  |

Even if we lose at Colchester, surely we’d finish top? Our goal difference likely to be superior to that of Colchester’s.
Home draw against any of those sides should be a win! |  |

There are 5 more knockout matches to play after the group, that's stupid, we'll need the squad depth for the league.
Get out as soon as, and cocentrate on the league.
Both Huws and Toto got clattered last night, another time they could have been injured and then unavailable for important matches.
Last night was good but risks far outweigh benefits. | | | |

Treat it the same way as we have the previous 2 ties, make 9-10 changes and give everyone in the squad a game and the result is in consequential. |  |

Yeah, the game ended in a tie so both Colchester and Spurs got a point. Spurs won the penalty shoot out, so they were then rewarded 2 points.
They just make this stuff up as they go along now! | |

They are on 4 points. We have 6.
So if we lose they finish top. If we win or draw (regardless of how pens go) we finish top. | |
