So pleased to say that on 88 mins Yeovil have just gone 2 up against Accrington...........could not face the hype and the milk advert all over again if they got to play Manchester United

Also, Barsnsley 2 up against Chester.........looking good for NYD

A case of the 'bigger' teams in this league considering the Trophy as more of a hindrance than a bonus. This sort of attitude has definitely devalued the trophy (as in the League Cup....or whatever the hell it's called now).

Sad, but true.

Very true. You've got the ex league clubs who have no emotional attachment to it, and the other bankrolled full time teams who see it as a hindrance. You had automatic promotion to the league, then the play offs, then a change in the make up of the clubs in this league. All of this has put it down the pecking order.

It should really be a great opportunity for a club like ours to make money and have a trip to Wembley.

I love it when it seems that the odds aren't in our favour. Haven't won there for 20 years? Brace yourselves!  :D
