FA Cup 2020-21

[#Beebot]

You’d think your youth team could have half a chance against Leiston, too. Ours are playing an FA Youth Cup tie tonight so must be in a different bubble, so presumably we’ve decided it’s not fair to play them in a game against a national league side.

Last year's academy side would, this year it's basically a school sixth form team. They lost 7-0 to a step 4 team in the youth cup a few weeks ago.

First time we’ve not been in the first round since 1876 and the first time a former winner hasn’t made it since Wanderers in 1881, jointly with Bury. History makers.

Not 100% we will play yet.

Those that have tested negative can train and play.

Why didn't that apply last week then ?

 

[Stoney Ground]

Why didn't that apply last week then ?

No prize money available and game could be reschedule.

 

[BeeArmy]

Why didn't that apply last week then ?

We had one player with symptoms. He self isolated and was tested. His result came back last Friday night which meant three further players who had been in close contact had to self isolate. The club then decided to test everyone (staff and players).

If he was negative nothing would have happened and the game would have gone ahead.
Good job it didn’t seeing as your team would have it now.

Forgive me if I'm wrong, didn't Notts test their whole squad when they got 4 positives last week? So the two new cases were previously negative?

 

[TonyM]

Not the way we would have wanted to go through, all the best to those who have tested positive and hope that we can get the games in over Christmas, although it could be on FIFA by then if we to follow Scotland's 'digital Christmas' scenario

Yup - it can develop at different times in different people, I think. Presumably why we’re now not playing until 11 November.

Well I'd sure hate to be that team, I wonder who it is... oh

 

[MrGloverLover]

Skybet have removed Leiston v Barnet from their available fixtures due to a 'trading decision'. Hmm, I wonder why...

They all have now I think.

Beebot probably tipped them off but not before he becomes a millionaire this time tomorrow.

I managed to get variations of 6/1 & 7/1 on Leiston as well as 5/1 on the Draw No Bet.

Weirdly Sky are the only ones still offering a cash out for the win (30% profit atm).

We will now draw & lose on pens & I’ll lose all round.

Looking forward to the Ilkeston Pools game immensely. Come on You Robins.

 

[MrGloverLover]

Dover have just arrived at the ground for the 3pm kick off. Might be delayed.

 

[doveranddover]

THe team was announced 25 mins ago, did they text it in?

Must've done

 

[doveranddover]

Leiston are 19/10 over Barnet on Ladbrokes - still worth a punt?
Ilkeston @ 15/2? maybe not

 

[#Beebot]

Ilkeston @ 15/2?

Yes. We have most starters out, a back line containing 3 full backs (2 from the youth team), 2 attacking mids in the middle and only 3 subs. And an 18 year old in goal

Horizontal rain and gale force wind at Huish Park. Complete lottery today.

No that's not good enough
You'll win easy

Pools 2 up inside first 10 minutes

 

[DarkSithLord]

Great start from pools to be fair here.

 

[Soup Ladle]

who the hell are we playing anyway?

Ilnkerston, Ilkingston, Ilson, Ilkerston, Alfreton? BBC are not sure

 

[doveranddover]

looks like Yeovil's 1st attempt at streaming failed - now live on youtube

Love the ground, bags of character and in great nick.

 

[jacobncfc]

Still baffled by how much we managed to lose to Dover.

We had some defenders then - down to 1 now

 

[jacobncfc]

This Ilkeston game is hilarious, should be about 12-0.
