I am not sure the FA Trophy qualifies as a " main competition".However...good to see young players being given game time. The club needs to do a much better job of attracting and developing young talent. I would say it is. It is a first team cup competition for the standard the first team play at. The Football League Cup or whatever they may call it these days is a first team competition, and there was a time TUFC qualified to play in it. ⚽️ |

Some might say FA Cup, but even getting to the 1st round proved a step too far for us this year. We should realistically be aiming for the semi finals of the Trophy. |

I also agree with stefano...my comment was somewhat tongue in cheek.
We are where we are....regrettably.

I think it's all a load of Billy big bollocks when people call it tin pot; it is the competition for our level of football and I don't think we're going to be playing in the (insert sponsers name here) Football League cup for some time to come. |

Should we get to the final, I won’t be going 😀 |
