Great performance today. Should have won and we should all take the positives of how far we have come under Robins. O’hare miss massive shame for the lad but blues gave little trouble today IMO.

Still in the hat....

Good day today.

First half showed the difference between the two sides. But once what many of us see as a stronger side were on the game changed.

Yes another replay, but we are now 4 points off the top with 2 games in hand. We are a point and 3 games ahead of Peterborough in 5th and 2 points and a game in hand over Sunderland in 6th. That second half has shown we are a decent side if we can keep players fit.

When is the replay likely to be? Back in UK in 2 weeks.

Walsh is a level above league 1... Contract expires in June... Here's hoping we can try and do something with Bristol

He would an immense signing, think we’d need to go up to get him though.

Birmingham are the old us. Mediocre seasons until they inevitably fall through the trap door to League One

I'd say the replay might be televised but they'll show Newcastle Oxford and Spurs Southampton in case you don't get to see the same teams on telly all of the time

Possession 57/43 to us, and fouls 3/16 (Dirty Brummies!)

don't agree at all.

Being spanked 0-4 would have been woeful. Fans would not have returned, moral would have been down and talk would have been "this is what would happen to us if we get promote".

If every player and fan isn't bouncing at the moment knowing we can (and did) compete with a championship side on their own turf, then something is wrong. Personally I think this is a huge boost for Tuesday.

I don't disagree to be honest. It's more the extra game we don't need.

We didn't get shown even when in the 5th round as an L2 side, no chance this will be

Awful game really. Barely a shot on target all afternoon from either side. We shaded it though, gutted with the late miss and could do without the replay.

It won’t be the same no because he’s a much better overall player and he should have started - he has a great turn and movement snd a very low centre of gravity which gets a lot of fouls and pulls players away

The game changed mostly due to his addition

How come you didn’t mention Baka’s contribution?

Disagree. It wasn't a good spectacle, but not too critical of us, we were the better side, and it wasn't ugly, just a lack of opportunities. Atmosphere was flat at times also.
