Leyton Orient v Tottenham Hotspur - League Cup 3rd Round - Postponed - Spurs receive a bye

[Matt1882]

But we are not bullying them, it is clear in the rules. I don't think us saying that the rules state that it is a forfeiture is anything close to bullying.

But I also think it is ridiculous that there is any talk about anything other than a forfeit at this point.

By bullying, I meant any public announcement we think it should be forfeited.
I think we need to remain silent and see what happens.

Their chairman was on 5Live yesterday talking about the whole thing and going off on the UK Government. It was a good listen.

Classy and all that, but dropping 50-notes on an oppo shirt to help them out is quite the token gesture.... Wish I had that kind dosh lying around.

I'm going to make a real sexist remark here - this is what happens when you have men making decisions on organisational stuff - haven't got a clue!

I'm not even sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Disgraceful Mr.sogynistic comment...
You wanna be ashamed...

They aren't going to make a decision until the outcome of the Chelsea-Barnsley match is decided.

If Chelsea win, we get the forfeit and play next Tuesday.

If Barnsley win, they'll jam both matches into our calendar later in the year.

Reasonable theory.

There's def. something like that going on..... Even if integrity should dictate the decision is made before that game kicks off.

And what's the logic of that exactly?

And what's the logic of that exactly?

Barnsley and Orient have more open dates in the calendar than Chelsea, who do not have a free week until the 16th of January, and since they play on Tuesday/Wednesday and we play on Thursday, it's almost impossible to schedule.

 

[mummy]

Does this mean they're gonna reschedule the game and squeeze it in at 10am on Sunday, directly before the Newcastle game??

#double header!!!

We could play them both at the same time, split their goals between them and double whatever we score. We win 4-2.5 in both games.

I'll donate a 50-note if Woolwich win today and my bet goes through. That's how good a Spurs fan I am!

50 minutes in v Barnsley we can safely say it is Chelsea if we get past Orient ...

They should actually wait to see if we win Thursday because if we don't we'll have plenty of schedule gaps?

Stil time! 5-6 Barnet.. Barnsley.. one of them

THAT makes sense to me.
