NewBlue Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Lot of clubs want guaranteed games, non starter. Really? I thought it was loss-making for a lot of teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagger Lee Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 UK *sponsers name* cup Getting teams from Wales / NI / Scotland / England would be more interesting than Blackburn 'B". First rounds are regional based - even have Lancashire cups ( Yorkshire / east Midlands / home counties etc) Later rounds having the likes Hibs, Linfield, Hearts, Newport, Rhyl, Coleraine have to be more interesting than Wigan 'B' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly Mr Shankly Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 But how would they fit Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch on the trophy if they won it? Bit like Borussia Monchengladbach after that daft pub sign. "That Welsh Team" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddySmoker Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 But how would they fit Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch on the trophy if they won it? It translates as 'sheepshaggers' which fits easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it's just a name made up by the local tourist board to get publicity call them by whatever the place was called before then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest for publicity Latics change their name to; Oldhamathleticonceinthepremiershipwhen managedbyjoeroylefc. Any other Latics long name suggestions?

Scapegoat Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 Have always treated this competition with disdain, but after 20 years in the lower leagues a realistic chance of a day out and to see my team actually "win" something - I am for this competition. Format could be improved for sure, but I'd take a win in this competition. #sostarvedofanyprospectofsuccessthatIamwillingtoembracethemostmickeyofmickeymousecompetitions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stagger Lee Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 But how would they fit Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch on the trophy if they won it? Easy - Just get the guy (Noel ?) who spelt Jimmy Frizzell wrong on the brick in the wall to do the job anfairpwgwyngygogerychwyrndrobwantysiiogogogoch - it would be an L of a tight fit but doable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
