[Terry Gibson's perm]

If we don't get there it would be good to see two under 23 teams get there preferably from the north of England and the crowd should make them change back to the old format.

We're going tonight though I guess we'll be pretty lonely.

 

[ajsccfc]

The JPT was one of the few scant positives of being relegated to this shit end of the league, and even that's been sacrificed to allow big nobs to stockpile even more young players they'll sign and then never actually play as they eventually lose the will to live through a series of loan deals they know the parent club aren't even paying attention to.

Fuck Checkatrade, the EFL, the EDL and ISIS

 

[Nick]

I'm in two minds wether to go or not.

 

[skybluesam66]

Prediction tonight
Gate 812
Score Cov 0 W ham 1

 

[steve82]

1500 there tonight I'm guessing

 

[Rodders1]

Sorry if been discussed already but do season tickets get into the game tonight?

 

[ajsccfc]

League games only for season ticket. I think we get first dibs on our seats for cup games but that's about all.

 

[aloisiwouldhavescored]

That's right, first dibs on our seats for this cup game, but they only held the seats for one day (know it doesn't really matter as think it will be an record low gate anyway, but it is the principle).

 

[Mcbean]

i will be there if we all get up in 10th and shout Jimmy Hills a god - we can introduce ourselves - because it seems like the tumbleweeds will be out

 

[Speedies_Chips]

Ok if you work on your theory...
He cost us 3pts v Swindon... Score 1-0 3pts lossed. And it was already a loss v Bradford from 2 pens score 3-1, so he's cost us 3 pts in reality this season. Agree?
Now look at what he's saved us...
Saves with a outstretched leg at near post at the end of the game v Northampton score 1-1 2pts saved.
The save near the end of the bury game where he stood up instead of going to ground bringing the bury player down score 0-0 3pts saved
He's 2pts to the good in my book.

It's not even a 3pt loss in the Swindon game. We lost 1-0 instead of it being 0-0. So only 1pt lost really.

Your quite right, was just the draw we were denied. Cheers mate.
Adds more strength to the theory then of points lost and gained by RCC individual performances

 

[Nick]

He should throw mcbean in tonight

 

[Philosoraptor]

I think to go with the spirit of the cup this thread should be limited to five pages.

However, if we win, fuck it.

 

[ccfchoi87]

Playing now for the u23's

 

[skybluejelly]

i reckon about 2000 crowd a lot of people say they wont go but come 6:30 that nagging feeling that you might just miss the one game when we play well only to come away 90 minutes later fully depressed will kick in...i am going with my son, parking in tescos ..(haven't received any fines yet)..so fingers crossed..when push comes to shove its still ccfc playing

 

[ClarkeZ]

Definitely wont be attending, this could be the lowest competitive crowd we've seen.
But I do hope we win, as the latter stages of the competition can be fun if we progress. Only real shot at success in reality for me, so I hope we win, but infront of 400 people.

 

[chiefdave]

Think it will be low but surely more than that.

 

[ClarkeZ]

No I agree, even with the boycott. Which is almost a shame actually. Really against what the FL have done to the tournament.

 

[coop]

980 people there tonight I won't be there not paying £10 to watch a training game.

 

[Nick]

I wonder if they will only fill the corporate side like in the telegraph cup?

 

[ccfc1234]

Why are we only allowed 5 changes, but West Ham field their ball boys

It's a joke West Ham can play their kids but we cannot. I would not go to this game if I was allowed in free.

Rest everyone and I hope TM does not even bother to offer an interview post match.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

We're going tonight though I guess we'll be pretty lonely.

I'll wave to you

We only have to play 5 first team players I believe. So can play 6 fringe players plus subs.

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

I hope nobody is sitting in my sear

 

[chiefdave]

Any idea what sort of standard their team will be? Is this a match we should be winning or is it going to be a repeat of the Norwich game?

 

[Nick]

I guess there is pay on the gate?

 

[ccfcway]

a lot of the fringe players ( Leahy, Finch, Devon KE, Mcbean, Spence & Thomas) played this afternoon for the youth team

 

[Nick]

Will be weird if he fields a strong side again

 

[steve82]

I didn't realise that, We've many options then but to field a fairly strong team made up of mostly our first team from Saturday.

 

[ccfchoi87]

Fuck it, go for the win. It's looking like our squad isn't good enough for promotion but a mid table finish with a trip to Wembley looks a lot better.
