The name and number font and size looks more like an NFL kit

Will be interesting to see how he's matured, Martin loved him for possession, will need to show more than that for other managers

Someone should send our Swansea friend the highlights of our last FA Cup appearance as a Premier League side....if we managed to lose to lowly league two Grimsby anything is possible

I agree, I think people are struggling with the psychology of continual defeat though. Just a few months ago I've never seen the fan base on such a high, guess it's too much of an extreme swing "If I hadn't seen such riches I could live with being poor"

Was it these lads?

Me too. Weirdly the 4th round draw will take place whilst our game is going on (after Arsenal v Man Utd) so we might not want to get through depending on opponent

Went bust didn't they? Basically a ponzi scheme

And Diallo who was an invisible man on the pitch

AI really is impressive

Talking of Premier League records I've seen this shared online, "Premier league all time table since it begun 1992" not sure when it is up to but certainly shows some context that as a fanbase we're not one of those "just happy to be here" clubs.

Hope he keeps them up at the expense of the skates

Imagine scoring a goal like this now 😳

I feel quite invested in the championship relegation battle, if Oxford stay up that will be another localish game with small allocation (1400), now Rooney has gone Plymouth might make a go of it also small away end (1600) Looking forward to it 👍🏻

Hopefully in the interest of fairness they give priority to those of us who were there for the 7-1 defeat in 1996 That Man City allocation was funny, Rupert Lowe made a formal complaint and we got £10 tickets the following season for the new ground

I reckon with our relegation confirmed the club will come to some agreement with Everton where we just get 1200 upper tier tickets to allow more Evertonians to be there for the emotional farewell

I'm already thinking about next season getting 1000 allocation at Kenilworth Rd, 1200 at Wrexham, maybe 1800 at Wycombe, need to keep those away games up!

Hopefully they get to see us win or *at least* score a goal , new format of the FA Cup so even if it's a draw you get more value for money with extra time and perhaps penalties, that could be comedy gold watching some of our players take them.

Luck of the draw, that's the magic of the Cup. Getting me excited now, will need to dig out my cardboard cut out FA Cup covered in silver foil for the BBC cameras on Sunday

We've already got to one cup 1/4 final this season so we shouldnt be greedy expecting another run

Sounds like his move to Sheff Utd is very much on, shame as I think he could have been ok for us in right circumstances, never really recovered from the head injury he sustained first game of the season

I'm still scratching my head about it, can only assume they were given instructions for a game plan they really didn't understand

To be fair we do have a LONG time to plan and prepare for the championship, can even start scouting future opponents. Bit off topic but who do we want to come up from league one? I'm not a fan of the Hollywood documentary but would like to do Wrexham away , something to look forward to

You'd have thought Juric would be desperate to get a win under his belt and will put out his strongest XI, whatever he thinks that is

Yep and Sheff Utd v Cardiff is 7pm Thursday, terrible what they've done to this competition.
