Basingstoke Fox Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 We could give up and sit on the pitch in a strop for the first game. Seriously though this is one of the worst days of my life.
Joe. Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 This competition is an insult to us it is so embarrising to be in i hope we are away in every round because if we are at home the attendance will be shocking It's not an insult to us- we deserve it. We were shit enough to get ourselves into this league and this is what we've got for it.
Corky Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 This competition is an insult to us it is so embarrising to be in i hope we are away in every round because if we are at home the attendance will be shocking Look, we got what we deserved. We are embarrasing. We have no divine right not to take part in it because we are "too big", we are where we are through our own incompetence alone, nothing else.
Danglo Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 What a shit story.fooking JPT. Could give us wembley visit at least though. No chance! a good team will win it, and we're not a good team - a fact no one can argue with
Staf Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 It's not an insult to us- we deserve it.We were shit enough to get ourselves into this league and this is what we've got for it. Fair point we do deserve it , it just hasnt sunk in yet that will be going into this cup Who will actually go to these JPT games? i think i will
Tevez Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 We're the famous Leicester City and we're going to Wembley.
FilboFox Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 Thats what I was thinking before and it just made me even more depressed... a club like Leicester fighting for the Johnston Paint Trophy...
Legend_in_blue Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 Thats what I was thinking before and it just made me even more depressed... a club like Leicester fighting for the Johnston Paint Trophy... They can call the trophy what they like - it's something to go out and win. Win it. Don't care how embarassing it is. Winning breeds success. Are we going to bow out of something else now because it doesn't sound big enough for us? Fight for it and win it.

It's a trip to Wembley, and a trophy to put in the cabinet. And if any glory-hunter compares trophies, just say "well you ain't won the Johnstone's Paint Trophy".
Sods Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 Paint Trophy will see our lowest attendance for some time however. Tuesday nights away at the possibility of Barnet aren't all bad. 1st round of FA Cup. Home game can get fooked! Away that could be exiciting.

Home game can get fooked! Away that could be exiciting. If we are away to a non-league side, I can see a TV match. 1st round of the Fa Cup, and me actually taking an interest in the draw. I just cannot believe it
Joe. Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 We're acting as though we'd just win this easily. Seriously everybody, get this arrogant attitude out of your heads. We're in this division because we deserve to be and we're going to be playing in this competition next season. Don't automatically think we'll win it because that attitude is extremely arrogant.
Ultra Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 FFS! If Milton Keynes (yes, MILTON KEYNES) can go for and win a league and Trophy double, there's absolutely no reason why we shouldn't attempt to do likewise.
Linekaaaah Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 Well, it's silverware ain't it... Ah who am I kidding. I don't give a f**k
Shrenchel Posted 4 May 2008 Posted 4 May 2008 So is it just me who doesn't wanna win this? I do know what you mean. I don't think we're too 'big' for anything but having 40,000 fans going mental because we've just beat Chesterfield to win a final where the match report doesn't even make it on to teletext will be a stark reminder of how far we've fallen. On the other hand...QUE SERA SERA, WHAAAAAATEVER WILL BE WILL BE
Guest Mickyblueeyes Posted 5 May 2008 Posted 5 May 2008 I really want this trophy now! first new chant for next year: Incey are you listening you better keep the trophy glistening we'll be back in march (or is it april) to take it away walking in a johnstone wonderland!!!!!
Koke Posted 5 May 2008 Posted 5 May 2008 HAHA Enjoy the splendours of League One, here are my top five tips for things you can look forward to: 1. The Johnstones Paint Trophy. You probably don¿t know what it is, you don¿t want to either! 2. You¿re not famous anymore. From every set of fans, every week, ad nauseum. 3. The first round of the FA Cup. Probably away at Backwater United, maybe even on telly. 4. Frozen pitches. Games between November-February have a 50:50 chance of going ahead at many grounds. 5. Shilton reborn every week. Opponent goalkeepers will become worldbeaters when they play you. PLAY UP SKY BLUES!!! Everything is pretty much spot on.
Kilworthfox Posted 5 May 2008 Posted 5 May 2008 This competition should be treated like Man U or Arsenal treat the early stages of the League cup, let the kids have a go
Father Ted Posted 5 May 2008 Posted 5 May 2008 This competition should be treated like Man U or Arsenal treat the early stages of the League cup, let the kids have a go I think we be letting the kids have a go all season
RowlattsFox Posted 5 May 2008 Posted 5 May 2008 Isn't there a rule to stop teams from playing the kids or the reserves in this competition?
act smiley Posted 5 May 2008 Posted 5 May 2008 Something like if you don't put out x players who've played more than y of the last z league fixtures you get a £1,000 fine.
