The Humble Realist Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 I think pre season friendlies have become a bit of a non event because the team is changed so much. How about City, Swindon, Rovers and Yeovil competing in a West Country CUp style thingy! The games would be competietive, fans would wana see it because it would be a derby match every game. The players would want to win and the atmosphere would be great +the games would actually be competetive!! I for one think it would be good!

bristolcityup Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 sounds good, but wouldnt it be too easy for us, perhaps we could sneak plymouth, pompey and sothampton in it aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest WillsbridgeRed Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Pre season games aren't meant to be competetive. You don't want to see any players getting injured for some silly cup do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redminster Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Call it the "Wessex Cup" and then we're talking. Plymouth, Yeovil, us, Sagheads, Cheltenham, Bournemouth, Southampton, Pompey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucksred Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Damn good idea: Plymouth, City, Torquay, Yeovil, the Gas, Exeter, Bournemouth, Swineden.. Fosters a pride in the West..and sure would answer the old old question Pride of The West...wonder what other fans think, from other teams.

bristolcityup Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 Yes thats a good idea, first round games to be played on Clifton Downs, second round matches to be played at Mangotsfield, third round to be played at the Memorial ground, qaurters at Ashton gate, semi finals at Portsmouth then the final at St Mary's,, the plan is getting better!

Forget Swine - they're not allowed to get involved. They are Thames Valley - not Westcountry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redminster Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 We start including Swine then we'll have to include that horrible plastic lot a little further down the M4, then the Cockneys... Might end up having a vital Wednesday evening game against Viking Stavanger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordofthebling Posted May 26, 2004 Report Share Posted May 26, 2004 thats a great idea, but surely there would be no trouble at all?! I am sure the Avon and Somerset Constabulary would love all those above fixtures... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
