22A Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Getting waaay ahead of myself here... but has anyone ever done the league/JPT double? Birmingham and Grimsby. Birmingham went up auto, Grimsby through the play offs (which meant they won two Wembley finals in one season). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Orns Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 1987 was the season I started going to the Gate. That day at Wembley against Mansfield, despite the defeat was fantastic. 14 years old, seen my team at Wembley, saw boobs in between full time and extra time, the sun shone, it was brilliant. That 14 year old part of me still loves this competition for that day alone, I hope we win it, but not at the expense of our league form I hated Mansfield Town for many a year after that. Now I'm older and wiser I realise it's only a game. Oddly, since 3rd May of this year they seem to have become my second team. They were also the first away trip I made in about 89. Me and Mansfield were just meant to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhombrecito Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Christ, this is like hearing the g*s talk about the Conference. We're not too good to play in this competition. We're a third tier team. And if we're in it, let's try and win it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bard Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 Think the timing of the games is playing into our hands a bit. We have the FA Cup followed by the JPT. Gives the manager the opportunity to give squad players game time, rest those with niggles etc. Our side minus 5 or 6 first choice players is still stronger than the likes of Gillingham or Coventry. Should we get through, it would be a battle against Orient - they're better than their position suggests (based on their performance against us and their squad). Pleased he didn't let Reid and Wynter be cup-tied, they'll probably get game time over the next few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myol'man Posted November 20, 2014 Report Share Posted November 20, 2014 Still no live TV game announced by Sky for the area semi-final?
