Decent enough performance all round without too much shine to it. Looked like a pre-season friendly at times.
But thought the strikers did okay. Twine and Janneh look promising, Abrahams gives lots of hustle and bustle but needs to add that final finish. And Taylor is an old head to see games out.

63Think Morecambe v Newcastle is a nice one too.Jonesy3 wrote:Aside from pitchside advertising etc, the only real way of making money out of the League Cup is TV coverage.
Prize money in the League Cup doesn't start until the semi-finals.
Still don't really understand why the Swansea game wasn't selected for TV - but perhaps a Welsh derby doesn't mean much to the rest of the country?
I think there are four 3rd round matches on the box so fingers crossed us v Watford might be seen as a potential 'giant' killing.
Lincoln v Liverpool & Luton v Man Ure are probably odds-on for TV, with the other two slots up for grabs.
We’ve had our fair tv share of late (some would argue more than) ...... I for one wouldn’t blame the tv companies if the felt the same !
.... not sure if BBC or S4C can get the rights to Carabao cup games .... prob wrong with that one.

I thought the FA / EFL paid clubs differently based on where they finished in the league table. That's certainly the case in the PL anyway, but I may be wrong about the lower leagues.

Re: Grandstand: Exiles v Cambridge
65Willmott is a decent player who I expect will be a squad player this year. Like many decent L2 players has moments of great play but is not consistent and his problem is the few that call him brilliant, cracking etc. He is not, he is not a consistent game changer, does at times but a useful member of the squad. Out wide I agree is his best position and he can deliver a great cross at times but does not beat a man with any regularity no - note Shephard last night and the Middlesborough goal was sadly a one off - if he did things like that more often or even looked like doing things like that then you get into the more enthusiastic adjectives.Amberarmy wrote:How about that goal vs Middlesbrough?? Or that cross to Podge for the goal vs Spurs?? Robbie doesn't get the credit he deserves at times. He is brilliant as a right winger/midfielder, even a wing back.

Robbie is a cracking player. He just needs to be played in his natural position (out wide).

Away to FGR superb cross for Padraig to score.

4-0 was it.
Out wide nobody been better for us since getting back in the league.
Put him in front of myself out wide.
Re: Grandstand: Exiles v Cambridge
67Strange that you mention the few good things he has done in games but that pass last night could have cost us the Watford game..
No mention of that ???
How MF see's him as a central midfielder is beyond my reasoning ???

71This is so darned unfair. The teams likely to be in receipt of the prize money are in all probability the ones who pay each of their first teamers 50-100K per week.

Edit: Winner gets £100K plus entry to the Europa League second qualifying round. The losing finalist and losing semi-finalists all make the same money - £50K.
