Technically dagenham at home is impossible as we are in the south west group, but getting a west country minnow at home like hereford or torquay how much would you say is acceptable Inc ticket tax?

JRM Posted 14 August, 2010 Share Posted 14 August, 2010 no I wont be going..I will be off fighting the war on terrorism.....HTH its irrelevant where your going to be, point is you wont be at the game so its easy not to care about pricing (or agree its right when you have no intention of paying it yourself). In the context of this thread we don't even know what the prices would be anyway, it would just be nice if it is a home draw that some sense is used. i hope we get aldershot as at least a local game would make it more of an occasion.

If saints make tickets say £5 for season ticket holders i probably would make the effort for my 2 hour journey down, just get the feeling the club is intent on milking as much money from its most loyal fans as possible, i'll still probably go but will resent it if its say £15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, me too! Would love another day out at Wembley and at the end of the day its a trophy kept in the cabinet. League should obviously take priority but if we can get home draws all the way through again then no reason why we can't win it again but by resting key players.

Would be quite cool to win it again, get promoted and to remain forever unbeaten in the JPT. A win against Swindon would be nice as well, shut all the farmers up.

ChrisPY Posted 14 August, 2010 Share Posted 14 August, 2010 Win it with our reserves. No point sticking out a full strength team when our priority is clearly the league. Last season promotion would have been a bonus but this season it's a necessity. WIFM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatlesaint Posted 14 August, 2010 Share Posted 14 August, 2010 This is the only cup comp we have a realistic chance of winning so I dont see how going for it would impact on our promotion chances. Its only 6 games inc the final after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohwhenthesaints Posted 14 August, 2010 Share Posted 14 August, 2010 Good chance to knock one of the better teams in the South out early. Let's hope we don't start as slowly as we did against Torquay though...no Papa to save us now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRM Posted 14 August, 2010 Share Posted 14 August, 2010 Might as well go for it, play a mixed team of some 1st teamers and youngsters with some stronger players on the bench, i think swindon played a weaker team in some of their games in this last year as well so we might get away with resting a few.

Arizona Posted 14 August, 2010 Share Posted 14 August, 2010 I'd expect Saints to win that one in all honnestly. Yes they beat us twice last year, but we were sh*te in both games and they have lost a lot of players since then. No fear, no negativity. I know the focus should be the league, but there's no reason we can't win the JPT along the way. How many times have Man U, Arse and Chelsea done a League and cup double? None of them have a squad of 50 players. I hope we d*ck them in revenge of last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint_clark Posted 14 August, 2010 Share Posted 14 August, 2010 I hope we go out.....or at least, rest key players for the cup games Ridiculous outlook. Yes, I hope we rest key players - but I never hope we lose. If we can win the cup again playing youngsters and back up players, then f*cking fantastic.

doddisalegend Posted 14 August, 2010 Share Posted 14 August, 2010 No one has ever won the JPT two years in a row it would be a nice little bit of history for the club. Promotion from the league is important but I'd like us to try and win the JPT again it's the only one we're realistically in with a chance to win. Trophies in the cabinet is what it's all about at the end of the day. Plus I really want us to smash ****ing Swindon worst match I saw last season was Swindon at home.

SuperMikey Posted 14 August, 2010 Share Posted 14 August, 2010 Winnable game, if we get the bigger teams out of the way first it means that we could end up playing somebody like Aldershot or Oxford in the Semi-Final, which would make it easier on ourselves.
