    If we want to make a bit of extra cash

    Then yes, it's a very big deal.

    Got to say I've thought that

    last thing we want is injuries from games that at the end of the day aren't that important. Of course extra cash is always going to be useful, but Championship status is far more important!

    Definitely

    Another chance of a potential extra payday gone if we drew a bigger club,another crappy result in a run of crappy resuts and another confidence blow to our totally inept strike force could go on but cant be arsed a bit like some of our players

    Yes - because

    .. an inability to beat Southend does not bode well for our future in this Division.</p>

    Yes

    I know we've got to concentrate on staying up this season but if people start thinking that way the FA cup will go the way of the league cup, essentially a reserve competition now. I think the morale and confidence gained from having a good cup run, something which has been lacking in the last few years, can outweight the risk of injury. Not to mention the possibility of television money. This has got to be called off by the way sounds absolutely terrible I know it's a bit unfair on Southend but FFS its "like a swimming pool"

    Yes

    Wasn't Mister Cryne none too pleased with Ritchie for being knocked out of the League Cup, thus costing us revenue from a game against a big club?
