Judge, Cyprus Tony, Dozzell and Downes likely to be missing.
With Pryzbek making up the required 3 for postponement, should we really push ahead when 4 of a potential starting XI are missing?

Yes, as will be Wycombe(h), Oxford(a) and Bury(h)-although that one for more than one reason. |  | | |

Appreciate that, just the first time the club have officially commented.
Assume they waited to see if 3 would be hit and it now has. Just now whether the U20 call-ups (even though they don’t count) mean we want to postpone or not. | | | |

They've definitely made the decision to postpone it if they can. |  | | |

U19 and U20 calls do count if the player has been in 25 per cent of matchday squads. |  | | |

Ah, thanks for that! We’ve hit 3 anyway at the higher levels, so with this on top we’d be stupid to push ahead | | | |

I'd be tempted to play the game. We have enough options to get a result without the rearranged game. |  |

Yet Rochdale likely to be at full strength and 4 or 5 of our first XI will be missing.
I agree we have decent strength, but we tend to do very badly making that many changes | | | |

If Judge, El Mizouni, Downes and Dozzell are all called up we'd have lost four players who play in the same area of the field. | | | |

And if we continue to do well, the number could only increase. Each international window game is likely to be postponed for us.
Why anyone would book travel and now moan at the club to refund them is beyond me... | | | |

I get that but we could cope with Rowe, Skuse, Huws, Edwards, Nolan and Garbutt for one game?
Depending on fitness, i'm not sure where the likes of Nolan is with his recovery. | |

Going to London for the evening on the day of the Wycombe game, so that would be convenient if that one could be called off.
And I've also got something on the evening of the Bury game, so that would be awfully convenient if that was cancelled as well (for International break, not lack of opposition). | |

I was thinking in terms of central players which wouldleave us with Rowe - who would have to be moved from his regular role - Skuse, Huws and Nolan, two of whom are yet to start a league game this season with the latter having played only 45 minutes of an U32s game so far. | | | |

Fair enough, just thinking of fixture congestion as we (hopefully) have a minimum of 51 games this season. | |

I was pretty much told that last week, subject to the actual calls coming in. | | | |

I think Sunderland did get to that point last season, they felt they had so many fixtures they were better off not calling a game off. | | | |

But do we ever do well after an International break?
Swings 'n' roundabouts I suppose, postponement means all players get a break, but if we're on a mini winning run perhaps better to play the game? |  |

It is ok, we are boycotting all cup competitions again this season. | | | |
