Anyone get the attendance tonight? Looked like 85% of the home crowd was on the Thatchers terrace.

Yeah both him and Coutts and Rossiter too. 39 year old Whelan running in treacle was pretty sad to see. Just stick to the coaching. I think even Coutts being in the team at the moment has shown how much better we are with Rossiter tbh. Whelan maybe just showed his age this evening Agreed, we look a lot stronger with Rossiter. Evans and Macca have been disappointing this season as well. Without Collins and Coburn we could have been in real trouble.

What do people want win tonight and lose Saturday I know what I would prefer Andy Mangan said post match did not want to risk any injuries by bringing on the likes of Coburn or Collins due to the state of the pitch I was at the ground this morning and it did not look good then in certain parts

Forgot it was on. Only two things really did we pick up any injury’s and were there many there ? Coburn, Collins, Sinclair, Finley & Coutts didn't play at all. The 5 players that are Joeys first names on the team sheet. I think it's safe to say he didn't want to take any risks on them picking up any knocks. I think there was just over 3k there tonight, a good couple of thousand up from our last home game in it. Maybe that was Joey’s cunning plan, hype the game up, say we'll be playing a strong side to entice those extra fans to attend. Maybe that extra circa £50k through the turnstiles was needed to pay for another Elliot Anderson or Josh Coburn 🤷♂️🙂

My interpretation was that he wanted to do coaching only, it was JB that wanted him to sign as a backup player as well. Which is why he initially left at the end of last season and got brought back in later in the summer. I might have imagined this of course but I'm sure I read it somewhere in the summer. He looks way off it every time he puts on his boots this season. Shame as he was still knocking it around well last year. Pure conspiracy but isn’t he only a handful of appearances from a landmark number of games? Reckon he’s just getting a run out here and there so he makes that number regardless of how poor he’s playing… CB V Lincoln still gives me nightmares!

As soon as I seen the lineup I thought we're out. Massive uphill fight from here. Its strange how we played much stronger line-ups in the group games than a quarter final Be funny to risk injury in a pointless comp on a dangerous pitch on our better players. Ain’t joking

Pointless competition since it was ruined by the authorities, best off out of it, don’t risk any subs. How can a potential Wembley final be pointless for the club? Once we've reached this stage the cup is really no different than it was in pre U23 days. 🤮

To be fair, it’s probably a performance that’s matched the managers attitude to the fixture. Never mind, put it to bed and let’s move on to Saturday and the league…. 👍 well done Joey.

Tonight makes no sense from JB. We put a better 11 out every knock out and pizza league games I’m baffled tonight . I’m not concerned about going out but tonight doesn’t make sense whatsoever… Pitch could have bought unnecessary injuries in a pointless game. We’re here for the league.

Barton sold us the Pizza Cup dream, and then put out a half arsed B-side. Promised a Meat Feast, ended up with a Ham & Pineapple sadly not burnt

Was pleased with tonight, game was dead at half time which likely stopped us risking anyone else in those conditions, second half. UTG

Can’t wait for us not starting a thread next season, because we won’t be in this bull$hit competition next season. Utg

Gashead crows about a Rovers competitive first team loss.
Will never not be very very odd.
