Views from the Sieve

Just a thought if our league game against morecambe is called off because of our players away on international then surely we can ask the Fa to do the same and call off the replay.Our players will still be away so it surely has to work both ways.

Says on club website that this replay is not affected by international call ups.

Thanks arnu just seen it,wow so it don't work both ways .One rule for one and one for another.

Ridiculous really you could go and sign players and they can play in the re-arranged league game.

For the replay however only Players at the Club for the original game can play.

There is obvious good intentions behind this rule.

Really do think that if there was a hypo thetical rule saying you had 24 hours after your last competitive match to ask for a postponement this decision would have not yet been made.

Unfortunately this decision had to be made before two Cup ties where you could pick up any number of injuries to add to the players you are already without.

As a mate of mine just suggested, the club could of just played the 1st game, stayed up there and played again on the Tuesday.
Wouldve cost a few quid in hotels but the expense, time & inconvenience of the two ghastly long trips would have been saved.

Ho hum

Home to whitehalk if we fluke a win in replay

Big opportunity to make round 3

Great draw and big opportunity to get to third round just a shame we'll be out!

Yet another massive missed opportunity. Didn't we draw at home to a seaside based team from the north west last season, get a favourable draw in round two, yet crash out in the replay with the manager still keeping his job??? Deja vu FFS

Now if we do get through I tell you now Wayne if you don't get this job done first time of asking then I shall be on your back . Whitehawk is not a place I want to be going on a Tuesday night . Looking at the draw that has got to be the top of the list when you are looking for grade one shitholes.

They would sell their Grandma for a line of Charlie there an ansoloute dreadfull place.

We literally haven't even lost yet

The replay just became a must win match.

This game v Whitehawk will almost certainly be a TV game. Win it and we get a go at the 3rd round. we need the money.

Shit or bust Wayne, no excuses.

Not sure about tv but one thing for certain this tie whoever wins the replay will not be on the Saturday.

You get a bit of money don't you even being one of the final score games on a Sunday.

Np doubt that will be Wayne and the boards fault that we don't play Saturday

We might be outnumbered by a non league team at home if we win the replay, can you imagine the embarrassment Thommo.

Can't believe you Thommo told the Twitter boy not to tweet the attendance from Saturday.

Club is laughing stock even the manager of Whitehawk thinks he can beat us.

****** off Thommo and take that clown with you.

I really see them putting us or Morecambe v Whitehawk on.

Fav to be on would be

Aldershit/Bradford v Chesham
Northampton v Northwich/Boreham
Welling v Carlisle
Salford v Hartlepool (GUARANTEED)
Braintree/Oxford v FGR (If FGR get through)

It has absolutely become a must win game now though. Even more than Southport last year.

no excuses!
