Latics_Fanatic Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 JPT has provided some quite exciting nights. Bradford home a couple of years ago. Accrington away when we won 3-2. However, it's also provided some less than exciting nights... Accrington at Home under Penney. Chesterfield in the Northern Final at home. and many more... It's a hit and miss competition, but i still think we should fight for the win and try to get as far as we can, even if we do bow out in the Northern Final (Again) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Chesterfield in the Northern Final at home was exciting until about the 80th minute. Then we were dead on our feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex_balls Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Chesterfield in the Northern Final at home was exciting until about the 80th minute. Then we were dead on our feet. A lot of "what if's?" from that Northern Final. Kuqi's missed pen in the first leg, the fact we starte dlike a train in the second, Kuqi hitting a post when he should have scored, like you say we were dead by the time that donkey M'voto (Yeah the same M'voto that people put in the same bracket as Barrett) collided with Cisak and Lester tapped home.

Chesterfield at home was a pretty exciting night, we just couldn't stick the ball in the :censored:ing net! Oh Shefki. Still mesmerised we didn't win that tie.

Tommy Lee also played an absolute blinder at New Saltergate (whatever it's called). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Tommy Lee also played an absolute blinder at New Saltergate (whatever it's called). He was better IMHO at ISZ, without him in that tie we would have been going to Wembley quite easily IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HarryBosch Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 we could say that about the league, "but if we don't get promoted, like many other years it will feel like a massive waste of time and effort" this again doesn't mean i want us to lose... is it not very similar?? No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorrro Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 we could say that about the league, "but if we don't get promoted, like many other years it will feel like a massive waste of time and effort" this again doesn't mean i want us to lose... is it not very similar?? Not quite. The league is the bread and butter. I'd go to Wembley if we got there, of course I would, and it was a bit of a :censored:ter when Chesterfield did us over, but the league is the only priority for me. It's nice to do well in the cups, last season provided us with some fantastic moments, but I'd have swapped them for promotion any day.

philliggi Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 Way i see it the league is the main target when we kick off in august. First securing safety then if we are doing well promotion. Its like this until christmas. All cup games before then are meaningless and all winnable. We should try to win every game but meh if we dont win the cups Priorities change through the course of the season however. Nobody can tell me if we are in the third round of the fa cup at liverpool and the northern final of the jpt in january, but having a mediocre mid table run in the league they wouldnt be bothered about not winning that final. It happened a couple of years ago and when chesterfield beat us everyone was gutted and there were (correct me if im wrong) about 6000 people in that ground that night. As i say priorities change and i would gladly see us to wembley and the fifth round of the cup if our league campaign has hit the buffers. Granted if we are top or in the top six i couldnt give a damn about playing the scousers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAC0AFC Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 course id rther do well in the league and it is the bread and butter but people can't just give up on the JPT which is a perfectly good chance of wembley! but like you said, league is the bread and butter definitely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forte_Baby Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 I love to see us go to Wembley and win the JPT a great day out will do wonders in PR for the club, mercendise sales but if we go out early doors its also not the end of the World either.

HarryBosch Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 ok, if it's another chance to watch this forward line, i'll go who are we playing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
