Draw next Wednesday A) Games against U23 teams will be played at the home of the football league club. B) Why would you want to participate and engage with a competition that jeopardises the future prospects of our club? It's highly demeaning to us and 129 years of the football league. Boycott.

not this old can of worms again.... We went down this road to death and back last season, for many it is an affordable opportunity (reduced ticket prices) to watch the team. As a potential scab again this season I will consider my options

More fool you if you want to involved. As a passionate supporter of the lower leagues, I want nothing to do with it.

Draw next Wednesday Oh dear you been suckered by the crap put out by the football league. Just to clear things up for you we played Chelsea last season great game, packed stadium, big names playing. But Chelsea aren't even in the draw for the scabs cup so absolutely no chance you'll be watching them in it, don't believe the lies put out by Shaun Harvey etc

Well even this thread has given the competition more publicity than it deserves. Wouldn't it be better to never mention it again

For me it is 3 more evenings where I get to see a Rovers team play. I saw the 3 games last season and don't regret it one bit (not even the all but empty Fratton Park) I understand your fears but don't particularly agree with them - each to their own

Everyone has the right to choose. Why anyone feels they have the right to attack other gasheads over their choice Says more about them than those who choose to attend whenever they want.
As a club, we have stated our opinion, which I happen to agree with, so just like last season, I will watch the games against league opposition, and ignore the game(s) against the pretend teams.
What's more, I don't give a F##k what anyone thinks about my choice. Because it is my choice.

What message are you hoping to send by watching the EFL clubs but not the U23, either you support the trophy or you don't? It sounds like you just want the best of both worlds, unfortunately life's not that straight forward.

Because it is my choice. have to agree with your sentiment.... we had the whole argument last season in to why it was acceptable/unacceptable to attend these games, and I think the majority have made their decision about it.... it's pretty simple now. either go or do not go depending on your stance....

It sounds like you just want the best of both worlds, unfortunately life's not that straight forward. When I watch Rovers, I watch Rovers. I don't send messages to anyone. I don't support the football league. I don't support the FA. I don't support Carabo. I don't support the trophy as you call it. I SUPPORT ROVERS. It sounds once again that I have to agree with your view of the world. But as you say, life's not that straight forward.
