glad to be out of it and imagine 99 percent of the fanbase the players and coaching staff are as well. And the 1% being " Topper " who has seen every game in this competition this season. I also saw a pig fly across the sky this evening.

We were torn apart by an Argyle side that had made 8 changes from Saturday.
Our defence was shown up again and needs reinforcing urgently as we all know.
The apparent lack of motivation was disappointing as only Macca and Saunders looked up for it.

A Final is always a good day out, but we've won at Wembley twice in the not to distant past, we got to 2 Finals in 1 season under Trollope, we've been there and done it. We haven't been in the 2nd Tier now for 30 years!!! There's probably some supporters who have only known us to be Non League or in the 4th Division We have a chance to get back to the 2nd tier for the first time since 1993. I'd prioritise that over just a day out at Wembley in a sh*t Cup where barely 800 turned up in the previous home game, every day of the week. No brainer! Would you put money on us getting promotion ? Well J Barton did, he bet a possible £1m on us getting promoted 🤔 I already have £20 at 40-1 I didn't do a Joey Barton and say we'll definitely get promoted, but we've got a chance. 3 points off the Play Offs with 20 games to go. If we can continue our form since October, just the 3 defeats in the last 16 league games into the last 20 games then that really is promotion form, we've got to play pretty much all the top 6 or 7 clubs around us at Home, so a chance to pick up points against the other promotion chasing clubs Bring it on!

Overall poor performance from Rovers with Argyle deserving to go through.
Showed the strength in depth is not there .

Didn’t Rossiter get injured playing in this competition? I think it’s the mixed messages that gets supporters One minute we are not interested Then we are Then we aren’t I’d prefer it if we just put out our under 14’s in the group stages, take the fine and get out. OR go for it from the start and stay with a strong starting 11 UTG Under 14's? Not sure that's allowed but no bother, let's just head for a top 10 finish, that'll do me. I Will be surprised if we finish above 15th TBH

Many will not agree i know but based on the season so far i think we are very much outsiders as far as promotion goes and this was a good chance to get to a Wembley final and all that goes with it , therefore i would have played our strongest side and gone for it, a top 10 finish this season will still be a good season imho and who knows ,success in this competition may have driven us on to even better things. Plymouth home v Cheltenham. Nice North and South draw with Accy v Bolton. Hindsight is a wonderful thing but if we played a full strength team v Plymouth would have fancied our chances v Cheltenham.

Then play Bolton in front of a 60K+ crowd, which must be worth £1m+? I can't understand how we can just walk away from such a potential pay day.

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 Exactly why it shouldn't be looked at like this as we've gone on to lose wvry game since. Shame we didn't just put out a strong team in this one as all gone pear shaped since!

Broom bottled the crucial 3rd pen to go ahead in the shootout
Argyle go through.

Rovers need to sign Alfie May in the Summer for sure. Inventive uses to playing upfront on his own
.as surely Collins will be off to promoted Plymouth Argyle

Was hoping for a Cheltenham win last night, despite a fondness for Argyle as we were going to make a weekend of it.
Can't we rearrange the Sheffield Wednesday game for that Saturday? Much better for all concerned.
