The one thing we could do without is this abortion looming on the horizon
September 8, 2025 at 1:26 pm #310989Act 1, Scene 1 has been a complete nightmare in terms of injuries, illness & suspensions – I’d guess everyone would agree that this ‘tournament’ is now completely unwanted?
September 8, 2025 at 1:56 pm #310991Game time for Brogan, Eze, Chadwick, Dawson, Gjoshe, Beck, Horton, Carlton, maybe even Butler? Loan keeper and a couple of OOC trialists with the possibility of 20 minutes from the odd regular should be OK.

Can’t find official confirmation, but the last round was shown in full on YouTube, so it would be surprising if that were not the case this time around…

September 10, 2025 at 9:21 am #311050Red card – I’ve read that disciplinary sanctions apply to the NL games if one is picked up in the MMC?
That’d be a bummer!September 10, 2025 at 9:58 am #311052Will the players on either side be trying that hard?
September 10, 2025 at 10:23 am #311058You’d hope our squad players would be trying to impress.
September 10, 2025 at 10:55 am #311059You’d imagine that their U21 players will be trying – trying to impress to get in their first team?
September 16, 2025 at 7:50 pm #311298Our second string attack have all the strength of a wet lettuce!
September 16, 2025 at 8:01 pm #311299Look at the positives. The pitch isn’t cutting up as bad.
September 17, 2025 at 9:43 am #311306More evidence that the competition is a farce..
September 17, 2025 at 10:56 am #311308One thing that this game highlighted is that it is abundantly clear that Beck should be nowhere near a football pitch. Can’t run, can’t beat 18 year olds in the air, outmuscled by 18 year olds, just generally can’t keep up with play!

September 17, 2025 at 11:18 am #311309We are just using it for our reserves fitness and to give them an opportunity to impress

September 17, 2025 at 12:26 pm #311312If your asking Jonny public to pay you should expect more than just a fitness goal.
Maybe another time play behind closed doors if entering the competition
with that attitude.
Never wanted to be in it in the first place, but once in 8 grand for a win would go along way to help pay for all the hotels they’re going to be using this season.
If I were Michelle I’d be very disappointed.1 user thanked author for this post.
September 17, 2025 at 12:39 pm #311313Meanwhile Boston are winning these games easily.
Started with six of the eleven who started against Southend on Saturday and didn’t make any substitutions until halftime.
Anyway only two more to go. I doubt very much that we’ll continue into the new year.
September 17, 2025 at 12:49 pm #311314Definitely with Boston almost guaranteed to progress leaving one place left.
September 17, 2025 at 1:47 pm #311316The only thing i took from the game last night, was it was great to see a possible future England star in Harry Gray, the 16 year old that scored the hat-trick against us.
September 17, 2025 at 2:49 pm #311317‘If your asking Jonny public to pay you should expect more than just a fitness goal.’
Is Jonny Public Joe’s poorer brother?

September 17, 2025 at 5:34 pm #311320Nothing,it was a good game ,
September 18, 2025 at 8:35 am #311328Very clear from this miserable performance is we have nothing in reserve.
Chadwick Eze might as well go back
Beck is main striker now for a month oh dearSeptember 18, 2025 at 9:03 am #311330Beck is main striker now for a month oh dear
Where’s your info from AFUF?
September 18, 2025 at 10:27 am #311331I’d say he’s just joining the dots between Whitehall going down injured against FGR (with what looked like the same knee problem as last season) and then bringing in Sellars-Fleming on a one month loan.
If Whitehall is out then as said above surely we play Dec through the middle and not completely ruin our game by lumping it to Beck.
September 18, 2025 at 3:07 pm #311340As Blt says just joining the dots
