[Tally Ho]

Tonight - 7.45pm.

[The Crowing Cockerel]

We're expert at exiting cup competitions - can we keep that record up today and on Saturday?🙃

[ETFC2001]

Still debating whether to go - hopefully we win that would be nice

1-0 down, penalty. (40)

[ETFC2001]

We really don’t like to help things do we. Commentator calling it stonewall, Enfield are saying it’s soft. Interesting 

[Towningaround]

Why on earth do we insist on mixing up the side and resting people?

Thats Athletic New and tonight where very winnable games would’ve given everyone a lift….fans included!!

If we’d beaten Newham and won tonight to go alongside a draw Saturday and a last minute defeat v Chesham it would look and feel so much more positive around the place.

What I said after Newham too. Really think we should be building on these games for some chemistry, especially with new loanees coming in. It’s really embarrassing and how do we expect to attract players with results like these, whether or not we’ve had more possession or shots. Feel bad for all the fans that travelled today to be honest and thank god I didn’t go last minute.

5 added minutes to take it to pens. A nothing cup competition, but can this season get any worse? 1-0

[Towningaround]

Why bother bringing on 4 first team players with 8 mins or less to play? At least bring them on with the intention of trying to salvage something?

[ETFC2001]

Embarrassing really. Don’t really care if we lose or not but it’s just embarrassing. Newham and now this. Atleast we can do the treble on Saturday and lose to Hornchurch!

Saving starting 11 for Saturday makes more sense than risking them for a minor cup

It really doesn’t. 

Giving the players the staff and the fans a shot in the arm morale wise by winning or at least scoring does far more good that negating the extremely low risk of picking up an injury at the expense of another demoralising evening losing without scoring!!

Personally speaking the Newham game and tonight are bordering on lunacy.

So where do we all go from here?

Our stand in goalie didn't have much to do by sounds of it on commentary but Hanwell's had to make a couple of good saves....shame we gave away another pen that decided the game....oh well on to Saturday

In your opinion..I'm sure a couple of ours went off injured

Well, not into the hat for the draw for the next round!

I’m now getting worried for life after if we do get relegated this season. We cannot score goals. Its worrying that we need loose balls in the box to score. It’s not sustainable for this level, or clearly the level under us. Two games against Newham and Hanwell and we haven’t scored once. Whether or not it’s a minor cup, it still worries me massively.

Would have needed a very big hat.

[WHY DO I BOTHER]

your right TCC things can get worse… RBR really showed what he could do against NLS defenders tonight … Come on Gavin get the spineless board out of this mess and resign with the thanks of the club for all your efforts… We have to be ruthless and put the club FIRST before loyalty … We mustn’t allow the football side if the club to become a joke…
