Those in power at the club, and that includes the Well Society, need to be absolutely hammering it home to the manager, whoever that is at the time, that Cup ties are a top priority and the strongest team needs to start every single time and no excuses.

For all Jens has been unbelievable for this. Tonight has been a disaster and it’s firmly at his door. Gutted for those who traveled up to see a 2nd string. When will we learn the cups are the only trophies we can win.Β 

Even his comments before the match were weird.

The semi final was a 'healthy defeat' that would be 'worth more in the long run than a League Cup win'.

What?Β

Terrible ,TerribleΒ  team selection from keeper to strikers. Nearly got caught out in last round doing same thing. It's a Diddy cup any way and he picked a Diddy team. . The league is where the real action is at.

JBA has massively fucked this

Absolutely,to go away from home to another top flight side and not play your strongest team is always asking for trouble.we should have chucked everything at this tonight knowing fine well the opposition waiting in the next round.

Most of the time we've not had a team that, in all honesty, was capable of winning a cup.

This season we definately have. Β

Just to add why change a winning team only Welsh had to be changed

Honking day at the office. Conditions, team selection, winning the cup hype. Was only going to end one way. Knew it'd be tough but couldn't have predicted how poor we've been. Difficult venue to attempt to bounce back at the weekend as well.

Yip, talking absolute nonsense.
No idea why he didn’t play roughly the same team tonight, then make all these crazy changes at Love Street on Saturday. So so frustrating. Seems like he over thought it and wanted a strong bench for extra time. No good if you don’t get to that.Β

This is a major black mark against the manager tonight.Β 
Β 

For all the plaudits he has had for the football we have played this season and the results he has fallen badly short in two massive Cup games against very winnable opponents both times. And his team selection tonight absolutely humped us from the get-go.

This is Stuart McCall levels of Cup tie fuck ups.

Yes the team selection was questionable re Connely , RCC and maybe Bjorgolffson , for me Ward, Slattery and Said should have started. But that said the game was ruined by incompetent fuckwit refereeing and Var decisions, and yet there is no accountabillity for any of these arseholes.

So do i blame JBA no, as we have shown how well we can play when he has rotated the squad before, its the useless c***s officiating that are culpable
