Capital One Cup First Round - Who do we want?

[essbee]

Boll*x to the micky-mouse capital cup.....

Let's focus on the League.

 

[shaolinpunk]

Portsmouth at home, with a comfortable and comprehensive 4-0 win

 

[KJP]

Plymouth, Wimbledon or Pompey please

 

[kevo]

AFC Wimbledon away. And no repeat of Swindon last year, please.

 

[Brightonia]

Presumably we'll have a new manager by then, so this will be his second game in charge. So presumably he'll be taking it seriously, unlike Gus last year, for example, and other established championship managers who'll want to concentrate on the league. You can't really afford many losses as a new boss in this day and age.

How did we not take it seriously the starting line up was:

Kuszczak
Bruno
Greer
Dunk
Bridge
Noone
Vicente
Harley
Dicker
Bridcutt
Barnes

Hardly a weakened team by any stretch of the imagination except Harley but remember we hadn't signed Hammond, Orlandi or Spanish Dave by this point! So not to sure where you are going with "we didn't take it seriously"

However is the one correct answer , as enjoyable as it's been having Premiership teams down here once in a while , it would be better if we had them down here week in,week out.

No distractions this year.

 

[Puppet Master]

Wimbledon away or Portsmouth at home (a derby match of sorts)

 

[withdeanwombat]

Has to be Exeter or Newport away for me.

Home match vs any of

AFC Wimbledon
Newport County( haven't played for a long, long time )
Northampton Town
Oxford United ( haven't played for a long time )
Plymouth Argyle
Portsmouth
Stevenage ( never played )

would be my choice.

The team showed they had no interest in winning the game straight from the kick off and played it like was an irrelevant fixture to get out of the way with , much like another game I can think of.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Portsmouth away.

Or Wrexham or Newport at home.

 

[Giraffe]

who ever we get we all know we wont take it serious

Depends on the manager. If he is English he might take it seriously, if he is Gus he won't.

 

[Notters]

Portsmouth away would be nice

I'd love to know how that's true in any sense!

 

[brakespear]

I shall be in the south-west at the time so of the relevant teams then Torquay, because it's the nicest town of those teams

 

[brightonmark1234]

Depends on the manager. If he is English he might take it seriously, if he is Gus he won't.

thats what i mean

 

[S'hampton Seagull]

I'd love to know how that's true in any sense!

It's an away game within short travelling distance (for me anyway!)
