dr. benway Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Gives you an idea how the competition’s viewed when you have to have a set of rules to counteract clubs taking the pîss. Still, an excuse to watch a bit of football free of any stress. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S36 OWL Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 6 hours ago, areNOTwhatTHEYseem said: That's how I see it, too. There are certain criteria which have to be met, though... EFL clubs must have at least four 'qualifying' outfield players in their line-ups, with players needing to meet these requirements: Any player who started the previous or following first-team fixture Any player who is in the top 10 players at the club who have made the most starting appearances in league and domestic cup competitions that season Any player with 40 or more first-team appearances in their career Any player on loan from a Premier League club or any EFL 'Category One' academy club A club can play any eligible goalkeeper in the competition Start the four required players, then sub three of them after 1 minute.

I genuinely have no recollection of this whatsoever. Just googled and it was in 2004, apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avon barksdale Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Pick a strong team , some regulars , some back up players and a couple of youngsters and try and win the damn thing. A trophy at Wembley is not to be sniffed at IMO. Plus we’ve lots of new players still adapting to each other and we lost our last match so need to get back to winning ways. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weshallovercome Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 When you look at the rules the reality is pretty stark. This is just a competition to give Premier league academy sides a proper run out, sad but true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lime Tree Heros Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Wondered how Snoots would treat this fixture, but as it has an OMDT I guess I'd better give it the respect he has and get behind the lads. No prediction as I've no idea who's playing (us or them), but it is a chance for Wednesday to actually win something, which we haven't done for 30 years - so COME ON WEDNESDAY, if we've got to play the competition we may as well play to win it!

If we do that then I’d assume Newcastle will beat our under 21 team quite easily. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costello 77 Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 Nightmare for the bookies to call these games. The only exciting thing about the match is genuinely not knowing who's going to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
