For me, we’ve got a cup game on Tuesday and no game on Saturday, absolute must that we play a full team and go for the prize money. A cup run might not have the value of previous years but you never know what’s going to happen in January.

The club have said they need cash, a cup run would help that. Be our look we’ll get a massive game at BP or a mega away day in a season we can’t flipping go...

Full Strength, go for it. When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

I am sure that that are much better than us on paper. 😃.  But we play on grass. First Round losers are given 6K to compensate for no fans present.  This is the first time that First Round losers will have received any money.  Winners get 17K, which we could certainly do with. There are no replays in R1.

Especially as we have 2 tinpot trophy games coming up with no league game for 2 weeks now.

We aren't a premier league side in need to sacrifice everything in order to keep the PL telly money coming in. "Lovelly stuff! not my words but the words of Shakin Stevens."
