We've already banked over £150k , the winners get £100k. Semi finals and final covered by Sky so a decent wodge of cash there as well.is there any prize money for winning this trophy? All I can find is that the overall prize pot is £3million.
Agree. Any excuse they can find.KO too late, KO too early, it’s on tv, it’s cold, it’s not important, Sadler should pay us to turn up… take your pic at Blackpool fans’ bingo!
Unlike you not to look for a positive. Are you OK?The attendance will be low even without Sky so not great news.
What? We play at London Rd in a fortnight.We got tanked at Peterborough on Saturday, so I can not see the point.
I'm not sure how big a priority it is for us and that might be clearer after the 3 games that come before it.
I'd suggest however it will be even less of a priority for Peterborough.
Mr Positive!The attendance will be low even without Sky so not great news.
It will be like Bullseye. The joy of winning but then you realise what you've won.It’s important that we win this game for the players and fans
Can’t wait should be a cracker!
But look what you could’ve won!It will be like Bullseye. The joy of winning but then you realise what you've won.
I like that one, a sense of humour who would of thought it.It will be like Bullseye. The joy of winning but then you realise what you've won.
Just CBA. Against my better judgement I've just bought for Cheltenham though.Agree. Any excuse they can find.

Don't go thinking you can just bluster your way into the FSG. You have to serve your time8pm is too late on a school night
I know he was an absolute pain, back in the day, but, I've got to say, on matchdays, I don't recall Karl Oyston having a punctuality problem, as such, and I'm just amazed he had people actually keeping tabs on what sort of times he'd choose to show up for games - although I appreciate there will doubtless have been certain occasions when he may, indeed, have been running a little early, or, alternatively, a bit late. But, come on, cut the guy some slack!KO too late, KO too early, it’s on tv, it’s cold, it’s not important, Sadler should pay us to turn up… take your pic at Blackpool fans’ bingo!
100% agree. FFS, some people only seem happy when they can moan and complain. AK is quite right - get a new hobby if you’re not excited when your team is one game from Wembley.If you can’t get remotely excited about your football team being 1 game away from playing at Wembley no matter what level they play at or what comp, then I think you need a new hobby.
Good chance for a day out or weekend after the boycott one and the Covid nonsense.
Obviously, the league is the priority but it didn’t do Bolton or Plymouth any harm last season as both made the top 6.
As we play them on the Saturday before the cup game it will be trotted out. On current away form the tanking is a possibility.What? We play at London Rd in a fortnight.
Who has tanked us on the road this season? Think only Port Vale have won by more than 2. In fact, I'm struggling to think of a game where the margin has been 2.As we play them on the Saturday before the cup game it will be trotted out. On current away form the tanking is a possibility.
So you don't think we got tanked at Port Vale then? I was joining in the spirit of what excuses would be made for not attending the cup game. Here's hoping this is one excuse they will not have to use.Who has tanked us on the road this season? Think only Port Vale have won by more than 2.

That will be why I said only Port Vale have scored more than two against us. Apart from that no one has looked like tanking us away from home, despite our appalling record.So you don't think we got tanked at Port Vale then?

Totally agree @Insider - it'll be two of the Top Four who go up automatically in this league and Posh are very much in there (although last night will have upset the applecart). In some ways, whoever loses at London Road might actually end up in the Final because of it (we'll have blown the Play Offs, they'll have blown automatic if either lose and therefore concentrate on the cup?)I'm not sure how big a priority it is for us and that might be clearer after the 3 games that come before it.
