No, not flasks, although it remains a huge issue!
But, 1 thing about our return to the FL  that understandably hasnt been mentioned is our participation in the Tinpot Trophy.
Would imagine, that given our previous heroic boycotts, 1878 will have to give us their opinion.
And from that, will the fans take on board their's and Hurst"s opinions or do we continue our boycott no matter what they say?

Oh no, does that still exist?! I’d pretty much forgotten about it!

I would like to think they are against the infiltration of U21 teams in the Trophy. Those young lads should be getting regular mens football elsewhere if they are good enough. It's a shame because I like the group stage concept but I hate the U21 team involvement.

It’s not changing anytime soon - maybe we just boycott the U21 game.

All the “boycott” stuff from the fans of numerous clubs hasn’t stopped it happening has it?

I think we know Hursts opinion, he’ll want to participate, compete and win every game in the schedule.

I’m not sure any boycott was “heroic”? I’d just leave it at the games are on go to them if you want to but don’t dis anymore who chooses either way.

The boycott failed as it was always going to . Just keep it positive for a season while we become an established League club again .

Play the kids and reserves like we did the fa trophy. Or are there rules against playing a weakened team?

In a landscape where there will be a short pre season it is crucial that squad players and the yoof can get game time plus bedding in new signings.

Will the ressies play many games? The new turf at BP may not be ready for pre season so I guess we will be looking for away games at Gainsborough, Barton Town, Brigg etc.

Handwringing  over U21 issues to one side, we need minutes in legs for the fringe players and trialists.

There are rules, but doesn’t mean we shouldn’t break them and just pay the fine.
