Don't know which entrance you used, but I go in the family stand entrance for my ST (and today), and even though the North Stand was pretty empty it was taking much longer than usual. Most people in the queue appeared to be daytrippers, and it was taking about half a minute per person to get through turnstiles. Loads were struggling with their paper tickets and didn't appear to understand how to scan.

just got home. Glad I made the effort, a great win and performance second half.

Not so impressed with the massive queue to get in and miss the first goal. Was only 19300 odd there so don't get it. Easier to get in when sold out.

Big delays on the M69 after an accident.

Say O'Hare did sign the contract, how much is he worth now? The ways he's playing , he'll get 15 goals this season.

Even with the prior injury, surely £10m? At what point do we gamble a serious amount of money a week on him?
Click to expand...
£15m.

No because I was in my kitchen. Missed the first goal too though as got distracted by boobies on the "football streams" that I came across.

Interesting thought, suppose we defied all the odds and won the cup, but didn’t get promoted. Would he sign for European football instead of top flight?

1000%. He wouldn't get European football elsewhere.

Anyone a bit nervous about Maidstone?
Click to expand...
Let's be honest here and it will probably sound a bit disrespectful, Maidstone hit Ipswich on their only two attacks of the game - on another day Ipswich would have won that 5 or 6-1 they were just useless in front of goal and the lad in Maidstone's net had the game of his life

The team we fielded last night should get through that tie without getting out of second gear

Yeah, because at that point they had a 1 in 3 chance of drawing Man City. No hard feelings about that but hope we win convincingly anyway.

That was genuinely one of the most shithouse, cowardly and needless things I have seen on a football pitch, remember when Ben Thatcher was playing for Man City and he completely poleaxed Pedro Mendes - it reminded me of that

The ball was at Milan's feet when he went in, the game was done - what is the fucking point, intentionally hospitalising a fellow professional has to be one of the lowest things you can do as a footballer, if that happens in a nightclub or on the street after a night out you are (rightly) in front of a magistrate within a week

My mate works behind the scenes and he said a few of the lads were furious after the game and tried to get at Bernard in the tunnel after

If the FA can single out Matty Godden for that 'dive' against Fulham the other season then why can't they do the same here - it was an utter disgrace

If he's done that really it's GBH and he should be looking at court

Don't usually see MR like this, really isn't one to seek confrontation with another club/professional like this - which shows you how poor it was if it has got him like that

Yeah, having your tourist trip to see Haaland is great until you find out he isn't in the squad.

Man City away would have been awful for them. Horrible trip to make on a Monday night, a guaranteed 6/7-0 drumming against a team of wonderkids.

So a question to people that were there... its seems Wright was pretty involved playing up front right? Actually got on the ball, made space for chances? As well as scoring obviously.

No it wouldn’t. They’d have got probably double the money, got to visit one of the top grounds in the country and most likely have gotten to see a lot of Man City’s first team players. They’ll probably never get another chance to play the best gens in the country. Getting to the 5th round without playing a single Prem team is obviously a massive disappointment for them. It’s really pathetic how arsed some people are about their reaction, our fans are so sensitive.

It would be.

It's a novelty. They'll have a big allocation with us and a far easier journey. Dare I say, it's an opportunity for them that they wouldn't get at Man City.

Me too (went in early due to rain) at turnstile 18 but even then it was slow. There were only 6 people in front of me and it was taking about a minute each to get in. No wonder it was a nightmare later

It's a shame, I always thought they were a decent club, but of late they haven't shown themselves in a good light at all.

He was involved, not everything came off but he got into some really good positions. His movement was excellent, always pulling defenders out of position. He was offside a couple of times because the pass was not executed quickly enough. He was comfortable in the channels, came short when he needed to and played on the shoulder at times. It might not have looked impressive to some people but for me he was very good overall
