iron_stan 0 Posted October 25, 2015 abandon it, quit, forfeit, play the youth/back up, rest the first team, send them to the algarve or something, get their minds somewhere else for a bitits a competition we need no part of, no one wants to win the league cup and be relegated, its worthless nowadays Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spillay 179 Posted October 25, 2015 How about the match on Saturday too? Hell, lets just sack off the next few games while we''re at it eh. Things are obviously not good at the moment, but this kind of negative defeatist attitude isnt helping anyone surely? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iron_stan 0 Posted October 25, 2015 so would you rather risk fatigue and injury in a worthless competition or have players fighting fit and at 100% for league games in a season where the financial benefits of staying up are worth infinitely more ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KoromaCrab 0 Posted October 25, 2015 is it possible that Alex Neil will be given orders by the club higher up to deliberately exit the cup/have less concentration on it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spillay 179 Posted October 25, 2015 I dont think it makes one iota of difference to be honest who we rest or dont rest, the squad is woefully short on quality or strength in depth. The players who played in the league need to find some confidence or belief from somewhere, sitting on their arses won''t help that. If anything if its such a chore for them to have to play in a "mickey mouse" cup, why not see it as punishment for them to have to play in it for their failings in the league?
