Wembley or Survival

[colincramb]

If you had to pick one, what would you choose? Survival in league one this season or a chance to win the EFL trophy at Wembley.

Easy, survival!

[Scooter]

Both (survival obviously)

[anton123]

Lucky for us we just about have 2 evenly matched sides so they can both focus on there tasks in hand

[Stewmaiden79]

Survival. The thought of league two football and Refs again so soon. Please no.

[Reg of the Rovers]

It has to be both. We’re not talking about an 18 game champions league campaign - there’s a couple more games before Wembley. We need to be taking the next round very very seriously. Players and fans don’t get many chances for a trip to Wembley. Got to go for both full throttle now.

I have never seen rovers at Wembley (wasn’t living in the country in 2008) and by the same score, that’s nearly 20 years ago which suggests it’s a such a rarity. Relegation would be bad, but I’d edge my bets we’d be in the top 3 the following season.

No brainer survival all day long, over a pointless egg cup

[Reg of the Rovers]

I agree with the sentiment Upton, it is a no-brainer - longer-term sustainability over short term excitement.

However, I think the one thing can lead to the other - JPT victory in 2007, playoff final victory 2008? A trip to Wembley will bring in loads more fans, loads of buzz round the club and help us keep building. But I agree, all that's for nothing if we go down.

But let's be greedy and have both!

Would we really take many down to Wembley for an EFL cup?

[Albert Trousers]

Didn't we take 20k to Cardiff for the JPT v Bristol Rovers, I reckon we would match that at Wembley.

[Donnybax]

It was a much more respected competition then though wasn't it. Still think we'd take a few to Wembley if we got there though 

[Padge_DRFC]

Didn't we take 20k to Cardiff for the JPT v Bristol Rovers, I reckon we would match that at Wembley.

Less than 10k would go. We'd be lucky to get 20k in a playoff.

[andy didcott]

Survival definitely.
