Prediction on which youngsters will be involved tonight on 14:48 - Nov 10 by J2BLUE
I'd like to see Simpson start.
I'd be amazed if he doesn't - just can't see any of the senior strikers being involved, and with next level down of Drinan, Folami and Morris all either injured or on loan it seems a formality that he starts

Cornell I'd guess, Holy probably on the bench.
Maybe Wilson involved too as a more senior player, plus no doubt a couple of them wrong due to injury so will be a couple of others.
With all due respect to those that play it really does seem to me to be ridiculous to treat this and other games in this competition as a 'first team' game.
Tonight will probably be Crawley Reserves versus ITFC 3rd team yet it gets treated as a first team appearance.
I imagine even the players hope to play in a proper first team game one day.

Of course, for some this is as good as it will get though - and they'll always be able to say they've played for Ipswich Town though!

Yes I understand that and from the point of view of a player who's 'only' appearances in an official ITFC first team game are in this competition they can genuinely say that they made a first team appearance or two but it still devalues actual first team appearances as far as I am concerned.

Yep, especially when the youngest ever players list will likely have a couple added to it tonight, alongside Chirewa and it will be for 2 minutes at the end of one of these games.
Jack is the year below Chirewa and still an U16 - that side has been one there have been high hopes for forever - I think 9 of them so far have signed scholarships, 7 of whome have been at the club since U8 level
