    At least you're in line with Stefan.

    And I'm sure Gary Bowyer is on the same wave length as Stefan.

    The aim is automatic position. Everything else isn't important.

    We need players playing that are not match fit to help them improve and we can use the FA Cup match to benefit us long term in the league.

    Maybe not...

    He will want us going up!

    Look if we win we win but not fussed if we lose.

    Port Vale midweek is miles more important.

    Everyone concerned with our club wants both, you can't dismiss the FA Cup to guarentee promotion either autos or through the play offs.

    No the owner maybe but the manager won't want extra games.

    As I say, if we win we win and if we lose we lose... it's one of them! It's not important!

    3 points is more vital!

    It is possible to get promoted and go on a good cup run in the same season. Now when did that happen to a League Two team?

    Crawley are on a very good cup run and could be up there at the end of the season!

    Of course it's possible but if it happens it happens kind of thing.

    If it doesn't then hopefully we will be top of the league and we move on.

    I would rather we got minutes into players in behind closed doors friendlies and used the FA cup to generate some money to use in the Jan transfer window.

    It is without doubt our most important game, then Maccesfield then Exeter, you can only beat whats in front of you.
    And yes I'm all for giving players a run out to gain match fitness but not at the expence of loosing the tie.

    Behind closed door games are not real and count for nothing.

    Tell Mr Rupp to spend some of his money on the club or give back some of the McBurnie money... don't worry about money! In fact tell him to buy assets to safeguard the club!!

    As a fan the aim is to go up this season. Nothing else!

    You are deluded to think that behind closed doors games count for nothing.

    You're deluded if you think they're real.

    It's like a training match..

    A bit like sparring for boxing.

    It's not the real thing!
