If a game is drawn after 90 minutes, there is a penalty shootout and the winning team gets an extra point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just too sensible Although , thinking about it, a lot of the time, a draw is a fair result. going to penalties in a league game is a lottery for an extra point and would never be accepted in normal football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redsontour Posted October 13, 2021 Report Share Posted October 13, 2021 I was actually going to pop along tonight as a friend’s lad was due to play, but in the end he didn’t, as Chelsea decided to rest 11 players…reflect on that, they rested 11 U21 players for a game against the gas… 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God awful competition ruining what used to be a great lower league event, especially the potential of a wembley trip. Funny you should mention a Wembley trip because the other year when they got quite close to the final it was strange how many of them suddenly decided that the competition wasn’t a complete car crash after all. They were making up all sorts of excuses about why they would definitely go to Wembley if they got to the final (most used excuse was that all U21 teams had been eliminated by that stage). I suppose when you’ve competed in a cup competition over 30 times and never won it whilst knowing that your closest rivals have taken part in half that and are the most successful club in the competitions history, you get desperate? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about playing "men's level" football. It's all about showing the young players that if they don't work hard and train like their lives depended on it they could see their playing days expire in shit holes like the Mem. If that isn't enough to inspire the next generation of talent I don't know what is. *premier league - it hasn’t been called the ‘premiership’ for 14 years - yep, call me a pedant, but it’s just correct to call it the premier league and lazy to decide not to ... apologies for being that guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me either - happy to focus on their pitiful league crowds instead where they’ve yet to breach the 8,000 threshold despite not being able to go for 18 months.

Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan Posted October 14, 2021 Report Share Posted October 14, 2021 (edited) Just want to say congratulations to Chelsea under 21s for winning their cup final tonight. Obviously they all want to play for Rovers, they go to the Mem, they see the fanbase there...and the pitch, they see how much money the Gas players are on and they all want to get away from Stamford Bridge ASAP and play for Horfields biggest club. #Bartonlogic #deludedmutants Edited October 14, 2021 by Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I remember it. Didn’t they turn up for their ‘love-in’ bottom buddies from the North East, Sunderland? I’m surprised that they didn’t go ahead with their open top bus tour of Kingswood anyway, like they did for their massive achievement of finishing 2nd in non-league football. Being the most hypocritical bunch of melts on the planet they go from ‘boycotting’ to saying “Well this is different, it’s for the kids”……….Yes, that would be the over 50 bald headed tote end monkey spanking neanderthal kids then! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
