Amazing price, 8 gbp for this match. I paid around 10 gbp for French premier league game 2 weeks ago, Lyon v Lens. Something is seriously out of step with UK football pricing/ UK mentality, 4 years ago paid 13 Euro for German Bundisliga 1 match.

Lower league clubs pay silly money to some of their players - not surprised some of them go t^ts up. Although some EFL clubs are on another level !!

If what I hear is true about Hilsner and Jobello doing their best in training, I really hope they both do well.

Is it being streamed at all? Nothing showing on the offal site.

Not a priority game in Tisdale's opinion?

Give some other players a run out.

I suspect that Tisdale doesn't see tonight's opposition as comparable to the league, and isn't too bothered about the result, just the performances.

Jobello and Hillsner both joined as wingers and Dinanga is a forward
Looking at the line up maybe we're expecting a pretty physical test

Who is playing a midfield role out of Reid, Burroughs, magrath, Drysdale,pask and Rowe? Drysdale did a few times for Gillingham and Cambridge so guess he is?

Is your LOL

"It's eight quid, not a great deal",

or is it

"Eight quid, that's taking the piss, It's the U23s".

For the record, I've never payed a penny to watch our U23s, either at the Higgs or the CBS.

£8 seems a bit much to me. Hopefully Alvechurch make a few bob and it helps them out, but it seems surprisingly high to me.

For Alvechurch this is a first team game so I guess this will be in line with their normal pricing levels?

We should try and win this cup, especially as the winners qualify for the Europa Conference league

Exactly, if ever we put out a team to loose this was it!
Why did we even bother entering the competition?

Pretty sure it's mandatory or a hefty fee to withdraw.
