Thank you for your deep insight and considered opinion.The programme needs to be cancelled. Absolute waste of time and money. Cancel for all games.

Not a problem. Do we even sell programmes anymore? Not seen any for ages.Thank you for your deep insight and considered opinion.
Not authoritative, but an opinion.There is a standard which no doubt the referee has to adjudicate. I'm sure Mick can give an authoritative opinion.

Don’t be silly, we haven’t had an cup run for an long time, if there is an opportunity to reach Wembley and to win the trophy for first time in our history, why not go for it.I'm really not interested in this Cup, I'd rather we concentrate on getting out of this ****ty League.
Not sure what game you were watching? We hit the post twice, highlights confirm this tooMust be very rare in any game to hit the post 4 times, I wonder whether we have ever done that before and what the UK or our record might be. I know Liverpool hit the post 27 times during season 2013-14 . Couple of years ago Evesham United lost 2 -1 to Yate Town but hit the post SIX times
Yet again on another day we could have had 5. Someone is going to take a hammering from us before the season is out ?
its precisely this viewpoint that makes real programmes valid. However mine differs, Im not a collector but would more then likely pay 50p - £1.00 for a pdf to get the team sheet and news and interviews etc. Its already there as a digital file, just needs a delivery service. Money for old rope for the club imo.To speak in favour of programmes, some people would prefer to not use their phone at a game but rather read the physical copy and share it with others.
The paper option also holds collection value. I can't put a bunch of PDFs in my bookshelf can I? If I had my huge programme collection on a USB it wouldn't be anywhere near as meaningful as my real collection is to me.
In an over-digitalised world, paper programmes are a nice break from screens.
I'd be happy to register my interest in buying a paper copy every week if it meant the club could estimate demand and save £££ on production. But it will be a sad day if the paper programme is ever lost for good.its precisely this viewpoint that makes real programmes valid.

Both physical and digital for me.
I'm pretty sure we hit the woodwork 4 times in the game. The highlights don't show everything sadly and depending on where you sat, at least one wasn't obvious.Not sure what game you were watching? We hit the post twice, highlights confirm this too
BBC Essex said post 3 times and crossbar onceI'm pretty sure we hit the woodwork 4 times in the game. The highlights don't show everything sadly and depending on where you sat, at least one wasn't obvious.
So if both the crossbar and the posts are made of 'wood', then that makes it 4 times in my book.BBC Essex said post 3 times and crossbar once
Judging by the sound of ball hitting frame of goal, I don't think the posts or crossbar are made of wood, right? I think 'hit the woodwork' is more of a turn of phrase these days.So if both the crossbar and the posts are made of 'wood', then that makes it 4 times in my book.
Thanks for the correction, ears suitably inserted round the offending word. I blame @fbm for introducing the topic in the first place.Judging by the sound of ball hitting frame of goal, I don't think the posts or crossbar are made of wood, right?

Yep, and sounds better than ‘hit the plastic composite’Judging by the sound of ball hitting frame of goal, I don't think the posts or crossbar are made of wood, right? I think 'hit the woodwork' is more of a turn of phrase these days.
The thing is, I wondered about putting the word at all... I wanted to say post 3 times and bar once, but I genuinely couldn't recall if it was 2-2 or 4-0 to the post. But I do remember them being hit 4 times.Thanks for the correction, ears suitably inserted round the offending word. I blame @fbm for introducing the topic in the first place.

Hence the word woodwork was used - and I'm not kidding when I say this - I thought "People know what that means, that's not a word that is going to cause any discussion."
But I should have remembered, this is Shrimperzone. Never rule anything out.
