My point is that if the vast majority of people really wanted to get there they could. Alright it might involve a bit of an effort and organisation and maybe driving rather than relying on buses/trains. if people are serious about backing the club given we have no game at weekend this is a chance to show it. Could be a dozen new players thinking ‘fucking hell this is brilliant’. Know they won’t be playing but having a few hundred extra on just helps build the momentum we need.

Hmm. Surely time to give some of the new guys a run out. The loans should have been in training with a pre season, even if not fully match fit.

Traf Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Normally I'd say "7pm KO, get f*cked!" and "B-team Trophy, get f*cked!" But on this occasion, junior & I Are in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnnyrotten Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 There's rules that you have to play a number of "first teamers" because you cant be seen to be treating this competition as an U21 one. Unless your Blackburn or Everton etc, then its OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they won’t even have trained with us though. Risk of injury perhaps means they won’t be risked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jol_BWFC Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Last thing we want is to have this competition taking resources away from the league campaign. Stick with the kids (who will largely now become the fringe / reserve players - a few players aside). Had it have been a week later, we could have used it to get the new players some match practice playing together. But it’s not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkonion Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Wouldn't normally touch this competition with a barge pole since they introduced the 'big teams'. In for this though as either a last chance to see the kids all playing together or welcome some new signings, maybe even FV? I reckon 7 o'clock kick off might work for me as likely to go straight from work and should still get home at a reasonable time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Cant say ‘kids can’t play twice in a week’ then two weeks later play them twice in a week, as it suits us When are we getting the punishment for Donny and Brentford? One of which should fall this season, let’s hope it’s just -3points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwfcfan5 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 The real reason for postponing the game was to try and force a certain creditor into signing a form..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ani Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 (edited) If either of the new centre forwards are fit enough would start them also try and get Lowe in midfield. That is in terms of winning/competing. But on other hand I would be happy to play same team as v Coventry and give the kids one last game together.

bwfcfan5 Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 This is a pointless competition however, given we could be seeing a significant further points deduction that might make the league a pretty irrelevant thing - I'd like us to try and progress in this one. Sure league is priority but if we could have a day out at Wembley and stick two fingers up at everyone on the day that would be ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
