Sorry to be unenthusiastic but I couldnt really care less about this fixture. Take some positives - a goal for a striker and game time for Thompson, and it's always better to win than lose. Negatives are any injuries we might have picked up. I'll be amazed if there aren't wholesale changes on Tuesday for an even more meaningless game.

Any away win is a good one. Any FA Cup win is a good one - particularly against non-league opposition - much better teams than us have come unstuck against lesser opposition. Second week in a row we have scored three away from home. Apart from the injury to Wood, I can't see any reason to be negative. Well done Warney and the boys!
It is a good win, came from behind as well. As previously stated not using these cup games to experiment is just silly but we won and Freddie scored and crooks is becoming a goal machine
I think Tuesday will be the time to experiment Derby. A loss today would have been a dent in the confidence that we're beginning to build. As much as the FA Cup is becoming a bit of a joke, it's still watched nationally and our rivals in League One would have taken some pleasure and inspiration in seeing us downed by a non-league side. Whereas Tuesday night is an official joke match and will have very little relevance to anything. Good opportunity to give the side-liners a run out before next week's important home league match.
I go on what I see. Only players I've seen this season who are consistent being Iversen Ihiekwe Linday. Today to me we lost a chance to play players who could come in like Hinds & Lamy. I can't see Morris & Hastie giving us anything. We haven't had a right winger all season. Lamy can't get a look in, I can't work out why. Another thing hope Warney hasn't lost Olosunde his confidence after playing him out of position further forward. F A cup hope we are drawn away in the next round, Warney his 1st choice side at home do * all so don't want to see rest of Warney's boys at the New York. Tues at Lincoin wish it was at home I'd be there. Enjoyed 2nd H against Donny more than any home game in the same competition I've seen this season.
Clearly Paul Warne doesn't tell it how he sees it, or go to home games, mean all. I bet that he's never worked at BSC either, which is obviously a hotbed of football managerial talent.
I don't know if you've seen the FA cup game highlights yet, but when you do, and see the Red card when Wiles was nearly killed.... I had to laugh-out loud when I read their Managers' comments:
"Magpies boss Devonshire said: “I haven’t seen the red card (incident), but four or five others have, including Alan Massey, and he hasn’t touched him."
Watched BBC highlights. You can't read too much into that they looked a none league side at times. Tackle on Wiles. Our 2nd goal would have been saved by most league 1 keepers. Our 3rd they gave ball away in the build up. Wiles unlucky hitting top of the bar late on. That's the view of a former BSC worker!
Glenn most footballers do not watch football until the retire and get a job in the media and even then they know less about football than they should the lack of knowledge of the rules by ex-footballers is amazing absolutely amazing. Therefore us losing today would have had no impact on other teams, it may have impacted our players as you say. My point is bigger than today, it is about how the club can use cup games strategically from the start of the season, an opportunity lost for me. Great win and next Saturday is very important
Going on what someone who went his views. Said Jones & Obgene didn't work. Point I've been trying to make on here since I 1st saw Obgene he's not a natural winger can't play on the right. Play him on the left he looks a threat. Can't understand playing Jones at left back when we have Hinds. Strikes we it's Warney's boys same with playing Morris & bringing Hastie on. Ladapo scored but it's either him or Crooks supporting Smith. Ladapo is no target man. I want to see what Lamy can do on the right given a run in the side. Know we didn't want to get knocked out by a non-league side but would it be any worse than losing 7-0 to Man C?
Why did you put views of a former BSC worker Gwru ? I am an ex BSC worker but i fail to see the relevance.
You say Ogbene is not a natural winger but then go on to say play him on the left. Do you mean he is not a natural right winger? Ogbene himself has said he prefers to cut in from the left so you may have a point. I didn't go yesterday but it looked a very wet day, so i think Warne played Jones for his experience on a bad day and didn't feel it was the right game to play Hinds in. I totally agree with that decision. Hinds must start in the Lincoln game though.
From the very small amount i saw on the BBC highlights it looked like Morris and Hastie contributed to creating chances and are important parts of our squad. Ladapo is no target man as you correctly say but he is possibly the best finisher in the club ( might be Crooks). Ladapo needs the ball played in front of him and isn't the sort of striker who looks good receiving the ball with his back to goal. WE haven't seen the best of him yet but i wouldn't be to quick to write him off. As for Lamy, i think we have been here before. He is an exciting young player but needs time to develop. I know we are working hard with him to improve his game all over the pitch and not just in an advanced role. His time will come and it might be sooner rather than later. The future looks bright to me providing us supporters keep calm and give everybody the time they have earned.
whiston01 BSC worker read TC his post including you workers. Ogbene not a natural right winger, Lamy best we've got in that position. Play Ogbene on the left just seems more his game. I rate Ogbene on the left. I don't like Warney's style of management. He's got his Warney's boys like last season with Forde & Taylor. I go on ability.
