Leasing.com Trophy - Is there any point boycotting ?

[terryd]

Impressive debuts by KML and Bennett so far.

Lankaster also looks to be an exciting player.

Two goals from corners as well, which is a shock.

[sotonus]

Some really good performances. Bennett great all round display. Jobe looks very assured on the ball. Two excellent corners from Worman. Lancaster and Weir looking really good in midfield.

[Bendigeidfran]

Can we bring Worman on just to take corners in the league?

[gstictok]

Some good performances so far Bennett impresses every time I see him - I agree he is going to be some player
Lankester is also some player his passing is a joy to see
The future is bright the future is Amber

I refuse to watch any competition which involves both A Teams and B Teams. A competition which allows big clubs to field a 37-year-old in their B Team but punishes small clubs for playing too many youngsters deserves the scorn of all. Magnified by their blatant derision of club rivalries with a derby token in each pot.

All we can hope for is that no one gets injured, and any good performances are carried on in the league, with bad ones written off entirely. Better yet would be the binning of the whole thing.

Glad to hear KML, Bennett & Jobe are impressing. Bennett has looked really good every time I've seen him & I know hopes are very high for Jobe.

Pleased for Smith to be doing everything he can to force the issue of league starts.

Yep and I imagine Lankester, now with 10 days rest until Lincoln, should also be making Bonner think carefully about his starting XI. What a lovely problem to have.

We don't have a reserve team.
These competitions are so important to get minutes into players.

Knibbs has been very poor.

[El Goodo]

Assume this makes Yearn our youngest-ever first-team appearance-maker? Or did he actually come on last season? I can't remember but I don't think he actually got off the bench did he?

Knibbs is always poor, we need to upgrade.

Are you watching? 

[themightycambridge]

Knibbs has been very very mediocre. Yearn looks a much better player on this evidence.

[Bendigeidfran]

Hope Gazwad is on the phone looking for a last minute striker. Surprised how much Knibbs seems to have regressed.
