: It is not a mickey mouse cup, try telling that
: to all the past players that have lifted the
: senior cup with City, for me it's still the
: one to win and seeing at though City are
: record holders of it i think the city
: management see it the same.
:
: no problem with us having to play smaller
: sides, it's just the ofa should use
: officials who can actually take control of a
: game, not a brainless prat like Coggins.

: Here Here! What a load of nonsense! Do you
: know how big time you make yourself and City
: sound!!!??? Whenever you play lower division
: teams in whatever competition they are
: always more up for it as they are testing
: themselves against superior opposition!
: There will be a few rash/dirty challenges
: but this can happen against a same league
: side it's just the fact they are in alot
: lower division that it gets highlighted
: more!!!!!! I agree that it would make the
: competition stronger if all teams entered
: from the start or the bigger teams to come
: in a few rounds earlier at least!! It's a
: good competition which players,managers etc
: do enjoy and it's always nice to have local
: bragging rights! It's a shame alot of people
: are slagging the competition off! If you
: don't like it don't go and watch the
: games!!!

: What a total nonsense, its a great
: competition
: and ALL teams should be in from the very
: first round. That way it would create far
: more interest and make the winning of it all
: the more memorable.Players from
: "supposed" lesser sides have
: kicked lumps out of senior clubs in all
: county competitions nationwide since god was
: a lad. I can remember Witney winning it one
: year and they had to play Quarry Nomads in
: the quarter final on the rec. Trust me mate
: it dont get tougher than that.

: I have just been reading the reports on the
: senior cup game.It is still a mickey mouse
: cup as it always has been,playing on councli
: pitches against teams of cloggers.I remember
: City having to play on Donnington Rec
: against Headington Amts,with one City player
: requiring hospital treatment (Paul Lee I
: think)and no phone availible, luckily one
: City supporter lived nearby and made the
: call.Maybe the likes of City,Uuited,Banbury
: should pull out of competition,or the OFA
: resurect the Profesional cup for these
: sides.
