Just wondering this question, personally think a boycott is a boycott - I won't be going to any of the games this year

No - quite right, if you boycott then go to the final, that defeats the whole purpose.

It's never that simple though is it?  Theresa May can say Brexit means Brexit, yet is today hosting a cabinet meeting, because none of them has a clue what that means.

I've come to hate Wembley Stadium, so will boycott that if it happened, yet could almost be tempted by a game v Reading 2nds, if played at some obscure non league ground, just for a laugh.

Some might also think boycott the  Academy 2nd games, but go to Newport or Exeter etc.   Some may wish to boycott the CG, to hit Power in the pocket but be happy to travel.

Hate Wembley so that is enough (for me) reason not to go to a final of the Schoolboys 11 versus mighty Reds.

If no mention of the game is made on here, I'll have no idea how we've done. Fuck the tournament.

No for me. I've made a decision not to endorse the competition. How poorly or well Town do is irrelevant.

I'd go to a normal match, no way would I attend against an academy side, even if it was the final.

If I'm honest I was initially intrigued with the Chelsea U23 fixture as I watch reserves football quite and would've willingly watched to see a comparison.

However, Chelsea have loaned out approx. 4 million players so that killed my mild intrigue.

Looking at the results on Tuesday felt predictably farcical.
