FA Cup run

I may be in the minority but why not give Hudson a chance in nets if he's not going to play Rudd,,,,, after all Ripley has been on the bench so often it's moulded to his buttocks.

I agree 100% I would be hoping we are looking to offload Ripley again this window, he should be nowhere near a championship side.

Can you still get emergency loans these days? If so I'd be happy with only having Rudd and Hudson on the books as keepers, with a loan if needed.
 
I’d take the second string getting some game time in this match and allowing the regular starters to have a rest.

No fans even if we get a nice home or away I’m not overly fussed.

I had a twitter debate with Darren Bent who sai he would rather finish 8th in the Premier League then finish 15th and win the FA Cup which tells you all you need to know what players think off the competition these days.

I'd much rather be able to tell my grandkids that I was an FA Cup winner rather than once finishing eigth? Eighth place doesn't even get you into Europe. Perhaps Darren Bent was happier with the win bonuses for finishing higher up the league table than a cup winner's medal? Sounds like a lack of desire to win things in my opinion, and maybe that's why he fell short of reaching the real heights that other top strikers of his generation did? Just a thought, like.
 
A good cup run gives the fans a feel good factor, but I don’t think that enters into calculations. Clubs say that fans are important but sometimes I think they just say it to keep us happy.

I grew up with blood and thunder style cup games, and now they mainly feel like glorified training sessions.

All you need to know if you are prepared to read it. 🤣

Cheers. That's my choice then, ha.
 
For our club, I believe consistently good cup runs would be massive. What we really lack in terms of kicking on is more fans. For more fans we need better exposure. Whether you want to say brand awareness or whatever marketing terminology fits, doesn't matter.

A cup run, with notable scalps definitely helps us in the playground stakes of being a viable club to support. And after all, its the playground where you gain or lose your fans.

Premier League football would of course be preferable, but that is just unrealistic for now.
 
I'd love a cup run.

But this season, more than any other with the games coming so thick and fast, we'll be using fringe players. No question.

If you're a player like Bayliss, and don't even get a start in the FA cup it's time to put a transfer request in.

Many of the fringe players think they should be starting. This is their chance. Show us what we're missing.

I think Wycombe and many other teams will shuffle their squads too. Maybe that will even things out.

I'm 55, and have NEVER seen us beat any notable club ranked higher than us of the times. The 0-4 away win at Derby doesn't count, as they were rank - ending up with just 11pts and relegated that year.
The only "giant killing" I can recall is when Ronnie Hildersley secured us a Cup win at Middlesborough, a league above us then.
Stattos - feel free to correct my memories with facts.

We beat Derby in the FA Cup at home 3-0 when Nobby Stiles was manager, Derby managed by one Tommy Docherty and playing in the old 1st Division is the only one of any real note I can recall.
