IrishSkyBlue · Apr 30, 2012

Well i never thought id say this but could we win jpt next season, feels so wrong to be in this cup but maybe just maybe we should be one favs to win it if we get backed money for transfers, didnt saints win it i think?Whats your thoughts on this cup should we even bother with it or let kids play in it for expierience?

kg82 · Apr 30, 2012

I wouldn't be too confident! Next year is just going to have to be take each game one at a time and hope for the best.

IrishSkyBlue · Apr 30, 2012

I just feel we should least try do well in it we would look very bad go out first round in the jpt how embaressing would be very low point for ccfc i feel to not even get close to winning it.

Covstu · Apr 30, 2012

we get knocked out of the league cup and FA cup by these teams already so what is going to change??

percy · Apr 30, 2012

we are now where we deserve to be and this competition should be taken seriously. they say winning breeds confidence so i dont see anything wrong with have a good cup run. i think we could be giant killers in this one

Otis · Apr 30, 2012

Why do people seem to think we do well in any competition? History tells us we won't. History also tells us we consistently lose to lower league teams.

Also, history tells us that it is more often than not, not one of the fancied sides that wins it.

04–05: Wrexham
2005–06: Swansea Cit
2006–07: Doncaster Rovers
2007–08: Milton Keynes Dons
2008–09: Luton Town

Giant killers? Which giants would we be killing though?

I agree we should take it seriously, it's just hard to see any success when as a supporter the only thing that's been won in my lifetime I was too young to remember!

I think you may be heading for a big fall here bud. We aren't big fish in a small pond and that's going to hit home big time next season if you think we are

Do yourself a favour and aim your hopes at surviving the first round!

History is just that though. It's what has happened. Nobody can predict the future - but I can take a hell of a good guess that we won't have our name on that cup!!

Well, those winners tell me the bigger sides probably don't take it that seriously and most likely field weakened sides.

Actually, we will be a big team down there. It doesn't mean we're going to walk the league or cup or whatever. But we will be one of the bigger teams down there.

No thanks.

No thanks?! You'd refuse to win it if there was a chance of us doing that?! Is this because we're so successful?!

Big team? We have no money, don't own the ground and are going to have a very small fan base next year:thinking about:

Are those the only things that constitute big teams? Our fan base will probably still be at least double most in the league. So in relation to that league, yes, we will be a bigger team.

IrishSkyBlue · Apr 30, 2012

wonder what our odds be on winning it nearly be worth a bet in itself.

Well they might not give it their all but rules are in place to prevent the fielding of severely weakened teams.

In the starting XI, 6 players must have played in the previous league fixture or there must be at least 6 out of the 11 who have made the most starting appearances in league and cup.

Moff · Apr 30, 2012

As i am sick of the doom and gloom I am going to say F*ck It, why not.

We have as a good a chance as anyone, and until I the whistle has gone and we are out I am going to believe we have a chance!

craigus12 · Apr 30, 2012

If I had a choice then I'd take the league championship but I hope we field a decent side every round.

valiant15 · Apr 30, 2012

I'm just not interested in the mickey mouse jpt.

kg82 · Apr 30, 2012

Well if we're not interested then fair enough...

What so a cup run, some large attendances, money from gate recepits, gaining a winning habit, a successfull happy day out at Wembley, and filling our fekking empty Trophy Cabinet is of no interest :facepalm:

craigus12 · Apr 30, 2012

success breeds success too

IrishSkyBlue · Apr 30, 2012

could unearth some good players and might bring bigi into the next level of his play.

valiant15 · Apr 30, 2012

I'm sorry guys but no im not interested. Id much rather a day out at wembley for the play offs. Will be lucky if there's 5k in the ricoh for a jpt game. It shows how far we've fallen when fans get excited about that cup/shield/trophy or whatever it is.

valiant15 · Apr 30, 2012

Each to there own though.

hackneyfox · Apr 30, 2012

I was glad when we got knocked out,winning the JP trophy would have been the lowest point for me.

kg82 · Apr 30, 2012

It's not about getting excited about the competition, but surely winning football games is better than losing football games?!
