Treating Cup Competitions Seriously 19:53 - Aug 27 with 5468 views | numptydumpty | I just seen Grimsby playing at home to Man Utd and the whole first team squad for Man Utd is playing or on the bench. Everton are at home to Mansfield tonight. Players such as Jack Grealish in Evertons team. Obviously, they coild both field a second team squad that could win these matches.but they dont. As a club, we really should take the cup games seriously. Its not as if we have been chasing any type of glory in the league. The Cup games are our chance for a bit of fun and the fact that we throw these every.single season for actually no evident genuine reason at all, has been a disgrace over many many years.. Protecting players is clearly absolute tosh. They get injured in training or warm ups anyhow. I hope when the FA Cup is on, we should play a first team squad. Manchester United are doing this tonight against Grimsby away. Its an insult and the club need to do better with this. I hope this point is raised at the next fans forum as a weakened squad in the FA cup is only going one way. Do i expect the club to take this on board - no i dont - not at all. But they really really should I dont think its a way to get fans onside at all. |  |

We stood In the away end Once and froze to death (and lost). You could just make out the tips of the boat masts which were bobbing up and down. Fish and chips In a box for a £1. (gorgeous). Proper football ground to be honest, I prefer football grounds to football stadiums. |  |

Don't we know it with just one win there in our history. Seem to recall it might have been only 1-0 in the last minute but really can't remember. |  | |  |

Treating Cup Competitions Seriously on 21:36 - Aug 27 with 1853 views | HantsR | I'd like VAR to have had a look at that disallowed Grimsby goal - the assist was from a Manure player - even if it was the pass before that which was offside - it looked tight. |  | |  |
