    The one thing we could do without is this abortion looming on the horizon

    Act 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?

    Game 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.

    Any live TV coverage?

    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…

    Link relates to the first set of games:

    Red 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!

    Will the players on either side be trying that hard?

    You’d hope our squad players would be trying to impress.

    You’d imagine that their U21 players will be trying – trying to impress to get in their first team?

    Look at the positives. The pitch isn’t cutting up as bad.

    One 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!

    If 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.

    Meanwhile 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.

    Definitely with Boston almost guaranteed to progress leaving one place left.

    The 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.

    ‘If your asking Jonny public to pay you should expect more than just a fitness goal.’

    Is Jonny Public Joe’s poorer brother?

    Very 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 dear

    I’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.
