Ivan Katalinic's 'tache

Good. Need to get control back by any means necessary. Weather the storm and then nick another goal to set the party going. Marvellous.

I, too, have turned to beer. I was saving myself for a celebratory few beers at the end of the match but my anxiety has turned me to beer early.

After a few weeks out surely Hammond is tiring and maybe that's why we're losing a grip on the game. Who's on the bench? Is Wotton there? Need someone to come on and shake things up a bit.

Come on Saints! That's not nothing. That's something. Something not good!

Going downstairs for a beer. Permission for nothing to happen, granted. Unless it's a goal for us. Or two.

I just want us to be at the final...

Nothing. Which is absolutely fine. Another 30 minutes of nothing is exactly what's required. Unless it's us that the spoil the nothing by doing something good. I need a beer...

Let's hope the hero v Norwich isn't the villain v the Dons. Plus it was a bit too close in for him!

Did he injure anyone good?

Has Ian Harte taken one for Carlisle? If not, it'd be funny if he knocked Leeds out...

Thank f**k. That half time goal has made me edgy enough! No posts designed to give me heart failure, please, as I can't hear the game properly!

He did it on purpose. The local brothel opens at 9. Allegedly.

His hot air hasn't blown the ball in our net, has it????????

COYR. Big half now! Don't get complacent; same again as majority of 1st half and a day out in London is ours... Get 'em going Deano!

F**k me they're confident!!

Must be us for the final then - we went to the FA Cup final 7 years ago off the back of an o.g. too!

We'll find out for sure if away goals count, if it stays the same. If they line up for pens, they don't!!!

So as things stand we've got an away goal and so have they! Clean sheet second half and all is well (especially as we're still 2 goals to the good). I've a feeling we'll score at least once more, too, so not a time to panic just yet!

Harsh but fair!

N'Diaye probably!

Could be. Although I think having Hammond back as skipper and driving the midfield is also a massive plus. We've not looked as good without him.

Very soon, I hope. Particularly Hammond, as I think we've desperately missed some leadership in the centre of midfield.

Had a feeling this type of warning shot was about to be fired. You don't expect to spend the money we've spent, at this level, and then fail to beat Exeter & Brentford and struggle, initially, against Stockport. I'm sure part of this is down to the squad size. Quite simply, we have too many players, which can't be easy to integrate into proper training sessions. As much as we needed to add some quality (and have done so with Fonte, Barnard & Puncheon, in particular), we also badly needed to shift some of the dross.

Absolutely. Great post! My only concern is how we approach the game. Go out only looking to get the draw we need and we'll go out...

AP's situation is a funny one. We're undefeated in 2010 but, like Mark Hughes, he has an expectant fan base & rich backers (who have spent decent money) to contend with and too many draws may not be considered good enough. I suspect a trip to Wembley will buy him time, whether we make the playoffs or not, but an effective pre-season (including ridding us of those who are draining the wage bill with no hope of making the team) and a good start to next season could be critical to AP keeping his job.
