The Spartans vs The Lions - Diddy Cup 07/09/24


Recommended Posts

Everyone else struggling to contain their excitement for this one then?

0-0 at their place in June, 0-1 at ours in July. Buzzing for this to be 1-0 to complete the set of draw, away win, home win. Maybe we'll cause an upset to make the pattern a draw and a win each. At least we didn't have to play the f**kers in August.

Best thing about this cup is it doesn't matter at all unless you're in the final, chuck some kids on and lets have a laugh. Let us score one this time please.

Could both teams lose this one please ;)

I have memories of the game at City Park 20 years ago which gave the old stand a good send off. It wasn't a bad match. Livvy have picked up recently so should be too strong...

Spartans keeper made some massive saves today. Prior really only had the 1 save to make near the end of the first half but it was very important with the scores still 0-0. Impressed with Nottingham who has made a strong claim to be one of our starting CBs with his performances of late. Brandon leading by example again. Comfortable enough win for us and would have been much more comfortable but for Meeks

Don't know if there are any Spartans fans on here, none posted in our other games against them this season. Was just sticking to our own board for this game but now you've started a thread.😂

Good to see stepping down a league has made a difference to Nottingham, was a worry him still being here after how bad we were in defence last season. 

Green Lawal and Winter all getting a run out today, and looks like Lawal was again making a case to be starting in league games, been impressed with him every game i've seen him play. Winter has been a good impact sub in cup games, again would like to see him getting league games, even if it's sub appearances.

I wonder if Lawall's is maybe suspect positionally , especially in a defensive sense. In games like today where we're on top he looks fantastic but even today he looked lost when possession was turned over. Young enough to coach that out of him though

Try saying this to Davie Martindale with the upgraded prize money he'll be eyeing up every penny 💰 🤣🤣 Challenge Cup will be a priority for Livi this season for sure
