We thought this about the quarter finals because two years ago we played Salford, but this year they were regionalised again.
Smacks of trying to keep Birmingham and Wrexham apart to be honest.
It's a hangover from the old 3rd Division N/S isn't it? 2 up from each division then when Division 3 and Division 4 came in it just stuck.
I've nailed my colours to this mast a million times now, and fully accept I'm in the minority, but it should go back to 1 up/1 down.
I did incomings and outgoings on the transfer thread, but our squad now looks like this:
Goalkeepers
Joe Day
Mamadou Diallo
Defenders
Arkell Jude-Boyd
Darragh Power
Scot Bennett
Ibrahim Bakare
Tom Bradbury
Sam Stubbs
Val Adedokun
Ryan Haynes (injured long term)
Midfielders
Luke Young
Tommy...
We have Peterborough away tomorrow night. Got a feeling we're going for it. Given they're struggling in League 1, think we might have a chance of shocking them you know.
Standby for a 5-0 battering now :D
There were rumours that MK Dons had a bid turned down for Ethon Archer and we also turned down bids for Tom King from QPR. Apparently, there had been interest in a couple of other players, but we made it clear we weren't going to sell. As such, other than losing Joel Colwill, I'm quite happy...
I'd say League 2 is his level.
He played for us in the second half of last season and had a great debut at Derby, but after that every time he played he looked absolutely terrified to be on the pitch. He never did anything overly bad, but at times he looked way out of his depth.
If you're prepared to pay a shockingly high wage for a 34 year old, then Matty Taylor still has goals in him.
Scored 7 in 13 in League 1 for us last season, but our style of play simply doesn't suit him this year because we're playing 1 up front.
No no, of all the clubs in the League, the FA have decided that it's Port Vale that they're going to have an agenda against this season.
The Sang red is laughable, no doubt about it, but talk of an agenda or corruption is even more laughable to be honest.
Great win for us today. It was a 0-0 game (albeit relatively entertaining one) and we took the big chance that we had. Love AJB getting a goal, he's my boy's fave player and he's a bloody workhorse.
It was one of the least surprising things ever in my eyes to be honest.
We're not that well supported on away days at the best of times, for a game that far away when it's on the tellybox I'm amazed anybody went.
Weston won't want him, they've still got our Max Harris on loan. He's now played more than 100 games for them over the last few seasons, all while being on loan from us.
What's it like - I haven't been in there since it was the Sudeley Arms.
Scratch that, I've not been in there since I was 17 and ended up in hospital due to drinking too much GL (a Weston's Cider).
The two Wetherspoons (Moon Under Water and The Bank House) in town, and that's probably about it to be honest. Hop on the D bus immediately outside the station and that'll drop you outside The Bank House.
I honestly can't be sure about any others though as my early drinking days are long behind...
