EFL Trophy rules changed again....quietly!

[AnotherSaddler]

2,619 ( with 100 Walsall supporters) at Bramall Lane tonight, although our local journalist at the game reckoned there were only 30 to 40 in the away end, I guess they must've included WFC club officials and player's family members (there are a few kids on the bench who may well make their debuts) in the figures

2 nil up now too and Leicester are winning which means us and grimsby are out. Get in there

You lucky bastards..hopefully we'll go out in the next round.

 

[Bottega Don]

1316 at our game, far too many.

For fucks sake it's 2-1 you better hold out for the win. I think clubs have definitely made a good stance and it will be the end of the b sides.

I read that this is the lowest ever attendance for a Swindon - Oxford game.

2698 there tonight. For the record, 9,013 watched us host Swindon in the JPT second round last year. No hiding from it - supporters have spoken.

Come on you Blades, you can do this, 10 minutes left..

 

[Meadow]

Isn't that double last game?

Yeah. Club actively discouraged fans from attending the Swansea game but not so much activity around this one

197 Janners, a lot more than Swansea yoof brought.

Well done walsall enjoy the next round.

 

[T.A]

We lost

 

[Buxton Vale]

Great we lost. Just need to lose one more.

 

[blademan89]

Us and grimsby now have a complete dead rubber in a few weeks. Yet both teams have to play 5 1st team players or be fined. I don't actually think either team should do anything other than kick off then all have a sit down.

Bradford City 2-1 Bury

Held on with a youthful side in the end. Top on the league. Still unbeaten in all comps.

1,900 in attendance.

 

[joethegill]

We're out!

Yet still have a dead rubber against West Brom's kids at the Hawthorns to do. Can't we just 'pull a sunday league' and give it as a home walkover?

 

[Fedora Dale]

1147 at the Crown Oil Arena to seen Dale beat Notts County 2,1, and go top of the group...

 

[Super_horns]

Yet still have a dead rubber against West Brom's kids at the Hawthorns to do.?

They had quite a few established players at Luton like Gardner and Olsson in the side which makes a mockery of the whole Under 23 thing...

 

[Big Bird]

1 IN A ROW!!!!!

Well done walsall enjoy the next round.

Sod off you.

 

[Bottega Don]

Cambridge and us are now through meaning our match against them is even more pointless, great.

 

[Matt_]

Same shit different day.

Another game without a clean sheet as a strong Town side go down 0-2 to Scunthorpe stiffs. Mellon will probably survive this because it wasn't a league game but he really really shouldn't. A good shooeing at Bradford on Saturday might do the job though.

We can now look forward to the ludicrous prospect of a nice local trip to Middlesboro to play their under-23 side in a dead game in midweek.

Whoever thought a group consisting of Town, Scunthorpe, Cambridge and Middlesboro was in someway good for the game should be escorted away in a straight jacket by the men in white coats..

1 IN A ROW!!!!!

Even when Swindon win, they lose. Your official twitter account put out some great stuff.

Next up for us is a game at Stamford Bridge, which I won't be going to. Hope we lose.

1 IN A ROW!!!!!

Desperate.

 

[Fedora Dale]

We're not quite through. Win, draw or lose by one goal at Hartlepool, and we're through.

Lose by two or more goals, and we're still through, unless Notts County and Sunderland Black Kittens draw AND Notts win the penalty shootout. Fascinating...

 

[blademan89]

11 sub 1k crowds well done all.

 

[ThisTinpotLeague]

Have we won the World Cup yet? The England team must be bloody amazing by now.

 

[T.A]

I like that ? Of 2 from Accy.

The match report on our official site has the away following down as 40ish.

I see the regionalised draw gave you a local derby at Scunthorpe, we got Grimsby and Sheffield in our draw, what a joke of a competition this is.
