Oh look who’s tactics are unsustainable

You can’t press for two straight seasons because players aren’t robots, and with a PL and CL they just aren’t hungry enough.

But hey, why strengthen because you’re already sooooooo good

LOL

Don’t think we can take the piss on that count, I would happily burn our players out to win the league and champions league, then fall off a cliff into being top of the league, albeit having played one game more.
Damn i sound like a Liverpool fan, hope all on TFC can forgive me. I fully understand if I get red carded

The history goes deep. Always playing second fiddle to larger cities like London.

Large expat Irish population, so the perception of being romantic outsiders against the 'man'.

The Catholism also factors in, treating their team like an evangelical religion.

Big fish in a small pond (see Everton ). In London you learn quickly that your team is not the centre of the universe!

I would say that is exactly what happens. Taken to the extremes, would you not agree that playing the same tactics could be considered "conservative" against City, but "too negative" against Enfield High School U13 girls? That's your argument distilled.

No the tactics are conservative or too negative.
They would still be conservative against Enfield U13s.......or too negative, but they can’t be both

I assume because it's a different competition? Have the FA said anything about forfeiting matches or postponements?

Someone posted something on here regarding the FA rules on Cup games.

Basically, it said that as long as a club had 14 fit players (including youth players) the game goes ahead.

How true that is, I've no idea.

I know Shrewsbury game is off cos of the cases at Shrewsbury. Maybe as a lower division club they have less players available

I do think that whatever the rule is, as long as its consistently applied is what matters
