I'm not going to any of the games in the comp but i will still be interested to see how town do and will be listening. I will still cheer if they score. Point is to vote with your feet and not give them the click at the turnstyle. I would even be up for paying the admission price of the home games if they made the price a £10 special straight into a fund or to the trust aslong as it wasnt counted as an attendance as obvs short term the club will be making a loss financially even if it was around the 1000-2000 mark per fixture and its obvs not the clubs fault. Well it is as they voted in but you know what i mean we still dont want gtfc to lose out cashwise if that makes any sense whatsoever!

I'm not going, and won't be going to the home games either, but i just wonder how many of us that won't be attending will listen in to the radio commentary.


No Radio Humberside commentary, perhaps JT is on strike

These cup competitions have generated the clubs income around 6 to 8 hundred thousand pounds in the last 6 seasons. It is also a one year trial that maybe scraped if the vote goes the other way. Only two teams voted against the  proposal I believe out of 72. UTM

And I hope you get to see my team win. I also hope that as you are sat in a virtually empty stadium you realise the real depth of feeling from the vast majority of supporters of most teams regarding this disgrace of a competition.  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

More than two have already come out and said they voted against, so which ones are lying to their fans?

I see you allude to a vote at the end of the competition determining its future, how are clubs going to decide whether it's been a success or not?

Imagine a world where the fans are consulted on these decisions. Or a football club who values the feelings of football fans more than profit. Let them get their foot in the door with the B teams in the Trophy now and then watch them use it as an excuse for them to devalue the lower leagues of English football by putting there B team in the league. The league will wave big money in front of the directors at first but in a few years time they will end up cutting this money when we are playing Swansea B team. How is this the cure for the problems with English football?

This is what it seems neither you nor your brother get!

This IS NOT 'these cup competitions', this is Harvey and the Premiership messing with lower league football for their own gain and clubs like ours ultimate loss.

John and his colleagues have shown they can be bought, fans will unite for the ultimate defeat of the destruction of lower league football
