How much space do you want to give them.

It’s like bigguns vs littleuns.

I know they’re a premier league team but we should still be able to mark players.

Is this this 4th game in a row with nothing going forward?

Barrett passes straight to Brighton, they spray the pass out wide, cross headed wide
Should be 4

I don’t know if our fans genuinely felt like we would cause an upset today ,but to beat 2 premier league sides in 1 cup run is doable but rare for a 4th tier club

Shame as we were starting to spend a bit more time in their half.

On the plus side JCH is looking pretty useful.

Tell you what, love the look of Clarke-Harris wins free kicks and looks like he’ll become a real handful

McNulty goes down after losing the ball in the box, looks for the pen, ref waves ‘no way’

Was a poor attempt at winning one to be fair

A very decent effort to get to the 5th round. Not often does a league two team beat a prem league team then a league one team away.

2nd best today, but no shame in that at all...

So ends a good cup run

Back to the league and we really need to start attacking week in week out

Yep, commentator points out mcnulty has had nothing all game. He should try watching us every week and then see his scoring record

It's not rare, it's never happened in the FA Cup.

We are so shit. We just can't do the simple things right. I don't mind being outclassed but when you can't play a simple pass it's embarrassing . Little passion and inept tactics .

Can we just chuck on some more attacking players we have nothing to lose

He needs service, we need to get a game plan to be able to give him some

I did say cup , and I may be wrong but the reason I put rare in was Bradford the other year getting to the final of the league cup

my concern is that you could apply that assessment to some of our recent league performances.

True. I expect a 89 min sub to try and change things up

Baylis has played decent as has JCH, but Haynes and Kelly should be banned for life from playing football for money

Nothing wrong with going there with a positive attitude. The vast majority expected we'd be beaten, that's fine, but I don't see why you cannot point out certain failings and be frustrated by basic errors. I don't think we need a big post-mortem though. Just move on and regroup.
