Why are you not going to the Cheltenham game?

[Spun Cuppa]

I'm taking it as seriously as the club, and Paul Daniels...

 

[jgmcdee]

I'm going, because I missed the game on Saturday and want to be back at the AmEx.

 

[BN9 BHA]

I'm going ----- cant stand embarrassing illnesses/big fat birds give birth/what Peter Andre does next/big brother episode 350/who Katie Price shags next and all the other crap my missus watches

You need another TV in your house!

 

[Driver8]

It would mean a day off work.

 

[See-Goals]

I'm in Sheffield for another 2 days staying with the in laws and just suffered 3 hours of grief from about 15 Wednesday fans at a family BBQ.

Am I excused?

 

[Rookie]

Can't be bothered to rush back from work, my football mojo is pretty limited at the moment.

 

[Acker79]

Would prefer multiple choice, as the three that cover it for me are it's only the league cup, it's only cheltenham and it's too expensive. £12 for a round one league cup tie against league 2 opposition is too steep for me, when factoring in the general mood created by our transfer activity so far. If there were some exciting new signings to check out, maybe I'd pay that. If it was a league one team, or fellow championship team I might pay that, if it was a later round and we had shown we weren't treating the competition like a nuisance I might pay that. But cheltenham, in a competition no one takes seriously until the final, when we have no special talents to check out, paying only £2 less than a friendly match v premier league opposition? Nah.

 

[dazzer6666]

I'm going , although not 100% sure why.

This, mostly, although junior missed Saturday and wants to go too.

 

[willow147]

I am. Negotiated an early finish. 160 mile round trip. Midnight home.

I'm an idiot.

Pretty much the same here except mine is only 140 miles and maybe arrive home about 15 minutes earlier. I'll also be bringing my daughter to the game, think she's only been to 1 'non friendly' game before.

I'm missing the next 2 home games due to holiday (bad fan) so am taking this opportunity to get another game in.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Why are we playing Cheltenham? Have I slept through the last two disasterous seasons?

 

[burstead]

because they sound like chelsea and tottenham put together

 

[Mackenzie]

I'm in Jersey.

 

[Triggaaar]

Other - I'm allowed to go to the 23 league games, and don't have a pass to go to the cup games too.

 

[SIMMO SAYS]

You need another TV in your house!

Shsss--------------any excuse to get away from work and her indoors

 

[El Turi]

Because the Newport game last year was shit and I have a real lack of enthusiasm when it comes to the Albion at the moment.

 

[pasty]

Because I need to finish work early to get to evening games, and save early finishes for league games, or later cup rounds.

 

[Max Paper]

It's a cup game and I can't get motivated for those. Yes I did Wrexham, yes I did Newcastle (first time) and yes I did arsenal but bollocks to all the hassle with the travel.

 

[nail-Z]

After Sheffield Wednesday last season I gave up (most) midweek home games. 10 hours in the car for a dire 0-0 draw made me question my sanity.

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Other:

It's only the League Cup
I'm busy at work and can't really justify the time to myself
I'm going through that "it's not you, it's me" period with The Albion
I'm lazy & a bad fan

 

[Norman Baker suck my lozenge]

Cos the season doesn't start till September 1st.
Apparently.
