Match Thread vs. Stockport County 16.01.21 [FAT]

It's all interesting to me. I know some would like us to be out of this competition, but we are in the last 16 as one of the highest ranking teams so are 3 games away from a Wembley final (if my maths are right). If the Covid situation allowed us to attend, that would go some way to make up for what we've had to suffer in terms of missing games.

Agree, it’s a bit like the league cup to Prem clubs, fans aren’t overly interested at the start but once they get to the quarters everyone gets a bit excited about a Wembley visit. I’m glad we won, gave some of the squad players minutes, but we are going to be very stretched the coming months with the amount of games, having said that Ardley rotated last season to good effect.

I’m not commenting on any game in this competition because it’s a load of toss.

Might as well be playing in the Notts Senior Cup.

It's great to know we've won every game so far this year.

Yeah, but we've also conceded from a set piece every game so far this year. Ardley out!

Actually, I would love to see how long a board where most people are in positive agreement would survive.

FFS I was enjoying the game and this thread all through the 90 minutes, positive and negative comments were all reasonable. Then at full time along comes 1st Laddo, then Elite, then Navy and guess what happens. Guys it’s f*****g boring and so are you all when you bicker. Grow up, count to ten then DON’T reply.

Kind of how i see it? The real kids come to play after the event

Fair interview, and view of today’s game.

Earlier poster suggested we were second best for most of the game, don’t subscribe to that view. They were better towards the end and should of scored. But not majority.

Would definitely like to see more of Wolfe. Unlike a lot of posters, I’m not anti Doyle. Maybe rotate Doyle and Reeves depending on performances. I definitely don’t want to see a midfield 3 of Doyle, Reeves and O’Brien.

Knowles, as others have said would like to see him given a run in a front 2. I would definitely consider 4-4-2.

Overall, wins a win and not a bad performance after missing a few weeks.
