Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Berniman on Friday, June 1, 2012, 08:08:39 Doesn't exactly roll of the tongue does it. At least Carling, Milk and others did.
The Rumbalows cup was a bit of a mouth full though. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Costanza on Friday, June 1, 2012, 08:13:43 I call it the League Cup.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: slinky on Friday, June 1, 2012, 08:18:32 Wow, I really want to win the COC trophy... Lot's of people will want to get their hands in it I'm sure! Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Ginginho on Friday, June 1, 2012, 08:34:22 Doesn't exactly roll of the tongue does it. At least Carling, Milk and others did. The Rumbalows cup was a bit of a mouth full though. I like the sound of the COC Cup, it's a funny name and also describes the FA quite well also. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: tans on Friday, June 1, 2012, 08:38:52 Wow, I really want to win the COC trophy... It'll just be a large credit car on top of the original trophy Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: thedarkprince on Friday, June 1, 2012, 08:42:43 Wow, Man Utd's kit on that press release is fucking awful...
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Simon Pieman on Friday, June 1, 2012, 10:26:59 I call it the League Cup. I bet you drop the 'sponsored by EON' from the FA Cup name too, you rascal Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Costanza on Friday, June 1, 2012, 10:33:34 I bet you drop the 'sponsored by EON' from the FA Cup name too, you rascal I call it the Football Association Cup. I do what I want. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: london_red on Friday, June 1, 2012, 11:33:41 I call it the Football Association Cup. I do what I want. Not the Football Association Challenge Cup? Pah. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Costanza on Friday, June 1, 2012, 13:28:34 Not the Football Association Challenge Cup? Pah. I'm a renegade, not pretentious.

Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: ChalkyWhiteIsGod on Friday, June 1, 2012, 20:54:40 Wow, Man Utd's kit on that press release is fucking awful... Arsenal's isn't much better Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: leefer on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 20:07:49 http://www.bcfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10327~2810384,00.html
Couldn't find it on the Town page....so who do we want in the draw tommorow :hmmm: :hmmm: ;D Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Minnesota Fats on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 20:11:41 Ipswich Town away please!
Other potentials include Stevenage, Watford, Peterborough and Birmingham (all away). Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: TheMajorSTFC on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 20:19:06 Wouldn't mind Birmingham away to be honest, but a local derby wouldn't go amiss considering we don't have one in the league this season!
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Batch on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 20:20:03 Bound to be Stevenage, away.

Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Posh Red on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 20:36:11 Ipswich Town away please! Other potentials include Stevenage, Watford, Peterborough and Birmingham (all away). I'd be happy with any of those too Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Langers on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 20:39:14 Crystal Palace away would be most welcome.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Costanza on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 20:55:25 Bristol City away.
Knowing my luck we'll get a cup run going and draw Newcastle away at some point in 2012/13. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Abrahammer on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 21:15:42 Gayers away, fancy checking out their new gaff
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: SuggWillSugg MBE on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 21:16:36 Someone at home or a close away please.
As it's before I go back I'm going to be fucking pissed off if it's Plymouth or a Devon club. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Paolo69 on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 21:31:28 Someone at home or a close away please. As it's before I go back I'm going to be fucking pissed off if it's Plymouth or a Devon club. You're safe Sugg. Plymouth and the Devon teams aren't seeded. Neither are we. I'll take Cardiff or Brighton away. Purely for sad anorak type reasons. New grounds! Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: FormerlyPlymRed on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 21:47:26 Someone at home or a close away please. Agreed, were fucked for games down there next year unless we get them in the cups.As it's before I go back I'm going to be fucking pissed off if it's Plymouth or a Devon club. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: SuggWillSugg MBE on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 22:14:25 Been trying to work out what the closest game is next year.
Reckon it may well be home games! Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: bigbobjoylove on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 22:16:09 Anyone at home.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Gnasher on Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 22:44:12 Fleetwood :D
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: STFC4LIFE on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 01:26:49 Oxford away, we owe them.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 06:04:08 Oxford away, we owe them. Not possible, seeded draw and like them, we're seen as a minnow by the wider football world. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: STFC4LIFE on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 07:07:16 Ah, I didn't know that. Cheers Reg.
I will say Bristol City again then. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Jimmy Glass is an Alien on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 07:29:27 I'm going to call it now and say Brighton away
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: stfcinbmth on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 07:33:18 Not possible, seeded draw and like them, we're seen as a minnow by the wider football world. Can't understand why B'mth are seeded Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Paolo69 on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 07:45:36 Can't understand why B'mth are seeded It's purely down to league placings last year that's all. As we were in league two (and despite finishing top) we were never going to be seeded. Title: Re: Re: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: stfcinbmth on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 08:02:38 It's purely down to league placings last year that's all. As we were in league two (and despite finishing top) we were never going to be seeded. Cheers, did think it might have been something like that Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Matchworn Shirts on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 08:06:52 Bristol City away
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Samdy Gray on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 08:33:35 It's Brighton at home.

Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: tans on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 08:45:32 Greer bashing?
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: LJ9 on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 08:47:19 Nice start to the season for Navarro!!
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: ronnie21 on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 08:56:11 It's Brighton at home. That will be a good test for us, see just how far we have come.Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Barry Scott on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 09:05:49 Good draw. An attacking and open side (us - obviously) against a defensive and negative side. It could make a great game, as we both play football, but I can see it being a 1-0 with The Gus Bus™ being parked for large periods.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Langers on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 09:24:15 Shame it's not Brighton away but not an awful draw.
Title: Re: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: otanswell on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 09:33:49 These games aren't covered by season tickets are they
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: nevillew on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 09:37:09 These games aren't covered by season tickets are they Not usually.Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Benzel on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 09:47:49 Speaking of season tickets, when do our cards get updated?
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: TheMajorSTFC on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 09:56:09 Good early tester IMO...especially as it's played before the league season begins!
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: walcot red on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 10:04:31 Been trying to work out what the closest game is next year. Reckon it may well be home games! Wouldn't Yeovil at their place be your closet game? Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Jimmy Glass is an Alien on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 12:39:27 I'm going to call it now and say Brighton away I meant home, you know I get my home and always mixed up :D http://thetownend.com/index.php/topic,48329.15.html Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: london_red on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 14:06:10 Decent draw this, and I have a sneaking suspicion it will be televised.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: alanmayes on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 14:14:21 Decent draw this, and I have a sneaking suspicion it will be televised. I would have thought that Fleetwood vs Nottingham Forest, would be chosen first of all. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: SuggWillSugg MBE on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 14:27:48 Wouldn't Yeovil at their place be your closet game? Ahh good shout! Think it probably is yeah. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Batch on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 14:52:43 Good draw.
Mex must be torn. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: seagull on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 15:01:21 The game is Live on Sky Sports, Tuesday 14th, 7.45pm.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: london_red on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 15:01:43 I would have thought that Fleetwood vs Nottingham Forest, would be chosen first of all. As would I, but evidently Sky fancy a bit of Poyet vs Di Canio Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: leefer on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 15:04:51 Good draw. Mex must be torn. Whats his sex life got to do with it :D Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 15:43:33 Good draw...was the last time we played the Gayers in the LC, when JAF scored his wonder goal and we beat them 4-1?
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: FormerlyPlymRed on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 15:45:03 Ahh good shout! Yeovil is the closest and I really dont want to go there :/ Bournemouth as well?Think it probably is yeah. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: SuggWillSugg MBE on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 15:51:32 Yeovil is the closest and I really dont want to go there :/ Bournemouth as well? We thought B'mouth and Swindon were around the same distance. Title: Re: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: otanswell on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 15:52:32 Pub time
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: leefer on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 15:52:46 Good draw...was the last time we played the Gayers in the LC, when JAF scored his wonder goal and we beat them 4-1? Went there once when Andy Thompson scored for us....was that the cup? Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 15:56:01 Went there once when Andy Thompson scored for us....was that the cup? Yep in the days when you still had replays...about 94. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: alanmayes on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 16:23:04 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAN07JjxMSk
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Costanza on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 16:44:40 To be honest, it would be nice to see Vicente play at the County Ground.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Summerof69 on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 16:57:49 Hopefully the clubs will make the tickets cheap especially now it's on Sky (£10)
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: leefer on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 18:31:38 Its dearer to watch it on Sky these days.....get yer arses to the ground.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: TheMajorSTFC on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 21:28:32 Surely got to be £10 a ticket...especially with it being on TV!...Has all the makings to be a good game
p.s-Spooky but again we get another team playing in Blue & White (last season Hudders, Col U, Wigan, Leicester) is this another sign? Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: mrverve on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 22:02:36 To be honest, it would be nice to see Vicente play at the County Ground. Exactly this. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Coca Fola on Thursday, June 14, 2012, 22:44:14 Seeing as this is before the league season starts what does everyone think the crowd will be? 8000? I'd imagine Brighton will bring 1000.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: DMR on Friday, June 15, 2012, 13:17:39 Seeing as this is before the league season starts what does everyone think the crowd will be? 8000? I'd imagine Brighton will bring 1000. 8k? Are you mental? Half if we're lucky. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Gnasher on Friday, June 15, 2012, 13:52:07 8k? Are you mental? Half if we're lucky. Being the first game of the season should help, plus it's against our old adversaries. 6-7k is possible. Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: mexico red on Friday, June 15, 2012, 14:35:11 we win this my life will be so joyous for the next 12 months. bring it on.
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Barry Scott on Friday, June 15, 2012, 14:44:45 we win this my life will be so joyous for the next 12 months. bring it on. What about if we win? :) Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: mexico red on Friday, June 15, 2012, 16:45:32 will not bite
Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: pauld on Friday, June 15, 2012, 16:52:37 will not bite That's not the rumour I've heard :)Title: Re: Renamed League Cup Post by: Abrahammer on Monday, June 25, 2012, 19:35:04 £13 for adult tickets then, sensible pricing IMO
