So who would you drop for him to start?



Depends on players' form and injuries.

Back in those days it was only what is now League 1 and League 2 sides.

Now obviously it ridiculously includes some Premiership and I think some Championship under 23 or under 21 sides

However if I remember correctly at least for one season the competition allowed some clubs from what is now the National League because I'm sure we were knocked out by Morecambe at BP when they were in the Conference.


That is correct. We lost on penalties and Russell Slade’s son Steve made his one and only appearance for us.

It was the match where youth team player Paul Ashton accidentally scored from a cross and was then never seen again, and Tony Crane infamously blasted his penalty over the Pontoon into orbit.

Is this the same competition that we took 30 000 fans to Wembley for back in the 90s?


Er no , it’s not !

Some blaming our keeper for the first goal, having only seen the highlights it didn't show giving away the throw in but for me Efete was ball watching yet again for both goals.

He was ball watching for both but the 3 other Town defenders in the box are equally sloppy for the first, and the second goal was more a case of the all too easy cross into the box from the overload so more responsibility there for me. Even if Efete had been sharp and goal side it would’ve been very difficult for him to defend that ball facing his own goal and about 5 yards out. I wouldn’t single out Miche for either goal.

Just watched the highlights and don’t think you can really point any blame at Cartwright or the defending for either goals . Just well worked and good finishing

Being an impatient individual. I made my mind up about Pyke during the Mansfield league game when Rose won the ball in the air flicking on and Pyke first failed to anticipate then ambled after it in a token effort . I would be interested to know what our player research saw in him given his career record to date (140 games 9 goals in 7 years) and his performances so far. Feel free to mark me down as negative / critical.

Not quite as impatient but made my mind up last night as twice he tried an extravagant flick both going to Barnsley players. Tony Rees would hang his head in shame watching that.

I’ve not made my mind up just yet but his goal scoring record and the fact he was played at wing back for Shrewsbury really concerns me. Particularly when we only have three strikers. I know others disagree but if you’re actually a goal threat, you don’t get put at wing back. Hopefully he will come good and prove me wrong but our strike force looks low on quality and quantity currently. Which isn’t to say Rose isn’t good because I think he is excellent. But if he got injured at the weekend then we’d be screwed.
