Norwich to win the league for me. Brentford not far off. After that....Huddersfield, Blues, Sheff Wed to struggle, along with Wycombe. We'll be ok (eventually!)

It's in your head - first signs of madness. You'll be thinking we're back in the Championship next 🤣

Forking out £1.25m to borrow a player for one season. Mad ( unless Messi)

I think we can get a positive result if (and it's a big IF) we don't concede a 'calamity defence playing out from the back' goal. Particularly if it's early on in the game.

......but if you put those goals to one side, what else did he do ?

Same reasons I don't want them to play !! (knocks, leggy?)

Agree with the confidence bit (and don't want to lose the unbeaten 2020 tag) - but would you play our first string down at Gillingham on Tues/Wed with a first home game on the Friday night? Not for me.

To be fair, I'd be bragging if I could manage that

I never like losing, but this season is so pivotal to the club, and the prize money so piffling, I just don't want extra unnecessary games. Fine to use Gillingham (and the next round if we get through) to give players game time (Max, JJ, etc, but I would fill the team up with the likes of...

Wolves or Stoke away (won't be tv. so meh!) Play 2nd string, whchever game.

We would be playing Saturday, Tues (or Wed) and Friday next week isn't it? In my opinion we sacrifice the Tues/Wed game (or risk it with 2nd string) to ensure our Friday team isn't compromised.

Agree - think the prize money for the second round is about £7,500 (not much change after coach travel. meals etc) - as you said earlier, the only real attraction is getting a TV game for a few ££s, but barely worth it in terms of the importance of staying in this division, with all that's going on.

Definitely be tempted not to field our strongest side - we would be playing on a Tuesday (I think) but a long journey, and little recovery time before the Friday night game v QPR.

GGGGGGrrrrrrrrrrr - at least fans haven't got to go there. Edit: forgot there was going to be the Round 3 draw - perhaps that will make it more exciting!

Come on Phil Babb - home v L2 please, or a TV clash for the ££££s

add Cheltenham to that list. Gives Rose an opportunity to feel his way back in. Get through that and then pick up some TV money and bow out. The prize money for progressing in that competition is diabolical (about £7,500 if we get through next round?) Also add Newport - they've actually got...

I forgot to factor in loss of income re last season: BCD / ticket sales this season. It depends what we are measuring against, but still suspect that a lot of any CW income will go towards balancing the books - though we'll never know (figure undisclosed!!)

It's only cashflow! You could argue we didn't have the £££s to buy Hamer or Walker (as we probably didn;t have £2m in the bank at the time). If we did want to buy another player - say for £500k, we only have to have the cash needed to pay a percentage of it up front, depending on the payment...
