Don't see where Lambert's 60 games are coming from.... 08:17 - Sep 3 with 5096 views | itfcjoe | ....and if we are going to make 10-11 changes for all cup games do the extra ones even count anyway?! I'd hope that if our reserves/squad members get us within touching distance on Wembley we'd stick the big guns out to help get us over the line but totally understand treating the group stages like we are. But he does seem to be massively overplaying the amount of games, and then cancelling one next week where we would have only had to make one change to the starting XI | |

Yes, because we were a boring, mid-table Champ team who had nowt else to play for. Now we need to get back to where we were, not winning some pony cup against U21 teams. | |

Mid table Championship mediocrity is certainly something to aim for! | |

Don't see where Lambert's 60 games are coming from.... on 08:26 - Sep 3 with 3591 views | Bluefish | He hasn't taken any cup games seriously since he has been here but presumably his PR research advised him that it is a sacking offence and red line to itfc fans. Personally I've always been comfortable under playing the cups but many on here got very very angry about it. [Post edited 3 Sep 2019 8:26]

It's certainly better than playing to win the historic Leasing.com trophy, that's for sure. | |

I wouldn't mind winning an F.A. Cup tie or three but I honestly hope that our interest in this other nonsense is over as soon as possible. Promotion has got to be what we concentrate on and hopefully we will not be in a position where we have to enter this ridiculous competition next season. | | | |

Why not both? This season we are at least not battling against the issue of being one of the weaker treams in the division, quite the contrary. Neither is there the FA/League Cup problem of being squashed by top-end Prem clubs at some point. Not suggesting we should field the first team. In any case, there are plenty of good players returning from injury and youngsters establishing themselves in the senior squad, I'm not worried about our strength. I'd just like a bit more of a positive approach. While we're down here, we may as well try to collect as much of the silverware going as possible. | |

Quite. The cups will be a good environment to get the youngsters and fringe players used to first team action. There's no downside as long as we rotate - it's just a pain in the butt for Lambert & his team when otherwise they wouldn't have a match. | |

Is there anything to stop PL handing over this fixture for Gill to take care of with PL taking a back seat? | |

I suppose I'm just taking an ultra-conservative view. It's embarrassing we're at this level as it is, let alone competing in this plastic competition. Would rather reduce the number of cup fixtures to fully focus on the league, there are enough games to be played anyhow. | |
