SavageTheBeast Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 No bye for us this year and we are in the north west part of the draw. Rochdale in the east. https://twitter.com/jp_trophy/status/628128272765833216 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

singe Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Don't know why they don't just let the highest placed teams get the bye, so there is another incentive to fisnish as high as poss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Latics_Fanatic Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Every year Bradford get a bye Apart from last year when we beat them in round 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsslatic Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 And the year before when they lost 5-0 to Hartlepool. And two years before that when they beat Sheffield Wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsslatic Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Apart from that they normally get a bye. Correct. They have had three byes since relegation to the third tier in 2004. We have also had three byes in that period as well. We never get a bye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BP1960 Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Will be a good run out for 3 or 4 squad men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave_Og Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Will be a good run out for 3 or 4 squad men. That would make for an interesting formation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorrro Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Correct. They have had three byes since relegation to the third tier in 2004. We have also had three byes in that period as well.

Scapegoat Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 I think we went almost 3 seasons without winning a cup game and only a bye in the JPT meant we had a second round appearance (which we lost) a few years back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Burns Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Says a lot about the :censored:eness of this comp that so many teams get byes, instead of playing each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Mikey Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Says a lot about the :censored:eness of this comp that so many teams get byes, instead of playing each other. Or the necessity to whittle the numbers down to a power of 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beag_teeets Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 The way Kelly has got them performing if we had got a bye we'd still get knocked out, bwah bwaahh, mumble, grumble, moan, bore....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Get some bloody work done. It's OK, he'll have charged it to someone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Geography quite clearly not someone's strong point, Boundary Park, and Oldham as a whole, is further East than Spotland and Rochdale centre. The 6 fingered lot have a bye too, which by rights is ours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudemedic Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Don't know why they don't just let the highest placed teams get the bye, so there is another incentive to fisnish as high as poss. This is a good idea for all cup competitions- hint Stevie J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
