The pessimism about this game is depressing. A good cup run can be worth millions!!

It's a shame if your hunch is true. I personally like the Cup and it's been a while since we last had a really good run. 16k would be decent. Given the fact it kicked off last time will ensure the stone island brigade will be out in force.

They are a physical team but for much of the game looked like they could be got at and a draw in my view would have been a fairer reflection of the game. That said not winning our home games will have us descending down the table rapidly due to our atrocious away form. Some reinforcements are...

It would! how sad for the tax payer that those who designed such provisions had such poor foresight.

Agree Sheaf played very well and is still improving which is exciting going forward. Kane is not as good all rounder as Dabo but wing backs need good delivery and Kane seems to have the edge in that department. No choices needed for Robins tho with Mattsen serving another ban!!

Given we had 10 men those scores are a little harsh!!

Tough lesson from a very good footballing team. We got a little disjointed with our pressing at the end. Great start overall but we need a player or two in January if we can move one or two on.

Sounds like 29,000

Some names we dont see in the forums anymore on this thread. It made me think of the alias thread, are they all still about with different names?

There is little segregation in most top flight grounds. You need about 10 seats and two lines of cops in front of each set of fans. See how it is done in the premier league and it never really goes off. Where all the issues I have seen happen is in the lower leagues where fans use the no man's...

I think the incomings will be dictated by the outgoings. De Costa Shippley Walker Jobello Histlner Bright If we could move them on and buy LWB ACM ST (physical powerful pacy in the Gyo mould (Lad from Luton springs to mind) We would be in a really strong position to push on second...

Does that seem clear? If the 'taking part' bit was clarified it would 100 % be clear. Taking part could be as little as pushing someone over who confronted you and was about to punch your mate as you were making your way to car park A? That surely in your mind is not a lifetime ban. Strickly...

Lifetime ban for what? Where is your line on these issues, Pete? Being within 20 yards of it kicking off? Loitering with intent? Swinging a punch and missing? Being punched? People in town don't always get locked up for a scrap let alone banned forever more from the City centre. As I said in...

Not condoning it but that stretch would seem OTT and more ideological than proportionate to the crime.

Absolutely agree. Sheaf was playing well and there was no need to swap him and Walker is by some way our least impressive forward when it comes to defending from the front and offered little. Allen for Gyo would have been my choice to ensure we got the ascendancy in midfield again as Derby...

Was only saying before the game if we ever get to the premier league for big games we will need to have less segregation as it's wasted money!! I blame the police for not getting into position anywhere near quick enough. Liverpool vs Utd they will be in place for the whole game. It's a wider...

Not saying it would have made the difference tonight as Gyk struggled physically but I am surprised we have not tried the formation that served us well at Blackpool again with 1 up top and lots of runners breaking into the box.

Looks like our strongest team and the bench has some decent options. Hope those with the shirt show why they are keeping others out the team.

Who was in charge of that contract!!! Either I am out of touch, it's got diamonds hidden inside or someone ripped us off!!
