Yep nobody takes the cup seriously anymore in the champ or prem in the starting rounds tbh. You will still get the cry baby's moaning if we lost 1 nil not 3 nil makes no difference really although that does not hide the fact we need a few strikers ASAP but two league games in a shite cup defeat its as if we are going down already some of the reactions. There be shouts for a new manager if we don't beat brum you watch. That's how silly it's gone with modern football fans they want the world on a few hundred thousand spent on a team and they want it now and every week :lol:

I've thought for a while a lot of teams just want to get out of cups you play an extra 3/4 games and then get hammered by a top 4 teams 2/3 choice team.

Like most of us, I'll watch city in whatever format, home and away. But for the last few seasons in the LC, I've been so disappointed with what is a clear intention of not wanting to be in it or taking it seriously to the point it becomes a waste of time going. And it's largely the same for other champ clubs too as you can see by last night's results. I can't blame a club for wanting to focus on the league but it's a shame, just the way it is I guess.

Considering we are a completely new team one would have thought this was great opportunity to play 1st team more or less to get game time together? It's only 4 or 5 extra games depending on how far we go.... dont get this play 11 reserves then bring on 4 or 5 first team players later in game what for? Last night just a lost opportunity to get more game time together. ;)

Couldn’t agree more.

Play one or two like Colwill and Philogene but put out a strong side and go for the win!

I bet your glad you didn’t make the journey!?!? :lol:

Very glad didn't go even when dont pay for ticket? How can he say wants cup run and then play reserve team that is untested at any level .... ... the thing is all premier league clubs play lots reserve/u23 players in this cup and every season or almost a championship or lower league team makes it to 1/4 or 1/2 final ? A bit of courage and play mostly 1st team players maybe we could be like malkie side and go all way... its always great for supporters a cup run gives a lift all round.
