Yes, I get that if it were the FA cup or even the League cup, but not this competition. It would be like us suddenly playing our strongest team in the Sussex Senior Cup final.
It would be a great achievement if we reached the final with the team that has been playing in previous rounds. If we throw in our U21 recognised first team players it won't prove anything above what other clubs already know. Imagine if we did it with players that no one else had heard of...
If we did put out a team of under 21 first team players, we would be the laughing stock of the premier league and hated by everyone else. We should not be taking this seriously; it is a tournament for the lower league clubs.
