Just one more reason why this competition is the utter pits. What next, an extra point for the team with the best kit as voted for by the referee and his assistants?

So when we played Swindon in a reserve friendly a while back, that result counted too? I'm not surprised Swindon thought they'd won. They only know how to count using one hand, so got to 6 and had a problem.

7 in a row wasn't to be but the Scum can have their 1 in a row and hope they make the most of it as it wont be 2 in a row What the feck are you on about, it's a reserve team fixture that doesn't count towards senior appearances. Secondly, it was a draw. But we can't claim 7 in a row otherwise 2 of the wins in the 6 in a row wouldn't count thought you would have understood that ffs

We've never played in this competition before and hopefully never will again.

Another ridiculous thing about this trophy - Charlie Adam played and scored for Stoke's stiffs last night. That'll really help English football!!!

Hence the disciplinary system. Last seasons JPT wasn't, it was a first team competition. It's not too hard to understand is it?

Just watched the highlights. It seems the only person taking the checkatrade trophy seriously is the Swindon goalkeeper

When did a 0-0 draw become a victory?

When are the commemorative t-shirts and mugs arriving in the Swindon club shop?

If the inbreds look at the CheckaTrade t ables, they will see that they drew with the mighty yellows. They did win a penalty shootout. But DREW the game.

Football is becoming more like America sports, it'll be four quarters next, sin bins, mass substitutions, stupid club names and extra points for this that and the other, thin end of the wedge. ox's @ Robins

Its the revamped much maligned p*ss poor excuse of a run out of the U23's or in Bradfords case sub your goalie after 3 mins citing he had a poor 45 seconds, However it was a draw last night culminating in a 3 - 1 penalty defeat and played in front of a magnificent crowd of just over 2,600 however it is still a defeat sore as it is losing to the scum , Surely you can understand that !
