That is really hard on Buckingham. I would have been happier if Winslow had conceded after the first game was abandoned. That concludes the Second Round and Winslow host Risborough Rangers in the Third Round, which has the remaining games scheduled over the next two weeks.
The remaining Third Round tie, Winslow United v Risborough Rangers, is next Tuesday at Risborough, because it has been postponed twice at Winslow.
In the Fourth Round, it's Burnham v Hungerford Town tomorrow, Maidenhead United v Milton United next Monday, and Reading v Flackwell Heath on 23rd January.
it’s too much for our reserve players to have a maximum of three (and possibly just one) matches between now and May.
Let’s face it if we win next Tuesday, we’d probably start fielding the first team in the semi and final anyway wouldn’t we with the level of money at stake from a Wembley final.
That’s a very poor decision. We’re hardly facing a fixture backlog in the league are we? Do we have another game to rearrange apart from Port Vale? Surely we can find 14 players to send to Flackwell Heath sometime in February!
Very disappointing. We may only have one more game in the Bristol Street motors cup, and as stated above, probably if we get any further, we will start playing the first team. Enjoyed trips to Long Crendon (Thame) ascot and Bracknell in the last couple of years. Also showing a disrespect to the competition and the other teams in it. I’m sure there were clubs such as Flackwell Heath who’ve were hoping to be drawn against us from the financial point of view.
Seems a remarkable decision given we have a B-team. Surely that cup is a perfect opportunity to give those players competitive fixtures. Why can't it be managed in parallel with the BSM trophy given they don't have league fixtures to fulfill!?
So we don't have a B team / development team anymore. We just have a collection of young kids that are not good enough for the first team squad. Is it me or is that just a bit ... well ... shit? Either go for it or not. It's just another example of withering good progress that happened in the early days of the new owners regime.

We are on for the iconic B&B + Pizza Motors cup double.
My feeling too @Shev.

The Maidenhead v Milton game tonight has been postponed due to a frozen pitch.
The Risborough v Winslow game tonight is also off, due to a frozen pitch.
Reading City v Flackwell Heath tonight was postponed.
The draw for the quarterfinals will be made via WhatsApp (no really) this afternoon.
Our next step towards world domination (well, Bristol Street, motors and B&B double)
Confirmed by the B&BFA that we’ve withdrawn from the Cup this season due to our run in the BDSM Ballgag of Joy.
Really???

This is a really poor choice IMHO and is a missed opportunity to connect with more local sides and their supporters.

imo lousy, decision, lousy, PR
Sums us up atm really.

Bizzare, the B Team needs more fixtures, not less. We have the right to recall loan players too, there really should be no excuse.
Yes. It's all turning to shit this week.
Though at least we've been spared seeing Flackwell Heath getting a 98th minute winner.
So we don't have a B team / development team anymore. We just have a collection of young kids that are not good enough for the first team squad. Is it me or is that just a bit ... well ... shit? Either go for it or not. It's just another example of withering good progress that happened in the early days of the new owners regime.
Not to mention (so I will) the Trialist boys !
sorry, this makes no sense. In theory,some of our players could play their last competitive game of the season next Wednesday.
At Long Crendon we played Horgan, Young and 9 trial players.
It’s not too difficult for a professional club to put 11 players together.
Completely disrespectful to our history and to the local teams that would have benefitted from the extra fans coming to watch.
For anyone interested despite us not being involved, QFs are...
Burnham v Reading
Maidenhead/Milton v MK
Winslow/Risborough/Marlow v BYE
Beaconsfield v Readying City/Flackwell Heath
