Quoted from fishboyUTM
The club did eventually under duress and following fan, trust and general pressure and after sneakily voting without full consultation in the first place , vote against this disgraceful format  in all fairness. I won't attend one of these games. We are a proud club with a long history. Aside from the Fenty years, we have generally been a respected club. We should never play against B teams, it's an insult.


Amended for historical accuracy

Couldn't give 2 hoots....the sooner this format is binned the better..time to make it about League(EFL) clubs and not the megalomaniac juggernaut of the premier trying to horseshoe there "development" teams into the league..


Especially a club that were heavily in debt, didn’t attempt to pay anything like, opened up with a new stadium and carried on as if nothing had happened.
Bitter? Yes. Must let it go. 😎

Quoted from RichMariner
Absolute shambles of a competition.

The more they try and justify its existence, and the more they cheapen it, the worse it gets.

They could give free tickets to everyone and I still wouldn't go. I wonder how our first team players feel about playing against another club's kids team. It must be degrading for them, too.

Abolish this competition. It adds absolutely nothing. I know we won it in 98, and made the final in 08, but honestly I'd be delighted if they consigned it to the bin.

Absolute dog turd.


A fitting tribute could be to rename the competition the "Harrington Street Cup".... mind you they'd have trouble polishing the trophy

Now if this doesn't get post of the week, this board should be closed down!

(I meant the second part Harrington St residents.)


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Those 22 can't have been proper Leicester supporters can they? Given their 1st team was also playing tonight and a lot closer to home. Must have been parents of those playing tonight, sneaked on the bus...

This must be a record for a ‘competitive’, and I use that term very loosely, game at Blundell Park, surely? A brilliantly shít attendance, if ever such a thing existed.

Think there was less than 250 for a similar ' match' last season so a near 40% improvement will surely be hailed by the club as a massive step forward in the fight against us bullies
