The trouble is, almost every time someone says this after a game he didn't feature in, he then flatters to deceive in the next game he does play in, much more often than not. Apart from Liverpool at St Mary's last season, how many times has he caused an opposition problems with his pace?

Is there a formation where we could get all 3 of A.Armstrong, Adams and Stewart on the pitch at the same time...? I just think that having Armstrong's and Adam's industry and tenacity sitting in-between Ross up top and Downes + Aribo behind them could be really effective.... Something like this maybe...? McCarthy KWP - THB - Bednarek - Stephens - Manning Downes - Aribo A.Armstrong - Adams Stewart

There's a circus act on before the game?

Not unhappy with that all things considered. At least we know we've got to go for it in the second leg rather than sitting back.

Dive there from the WBA player, surely?

Surpised it's only 6 minutes of added time given all the faffing around this half

Ask the people moaning about us keeping possession at the back...?

Ending the second half as we started the first....

FFS... get on with it... about 3 minutes to make 4 subs....

Yep. HAS to start on Friday

This has got 0-0 written all over it

That was Brooks wasn't it?

WBA free-kick on the edge of the box... here we go....

Ha... talking bollocks again Trousers.... Ross coming on shortly....

I suspect Martin won't want to risk him all the while it's 0-0....

# Trousers probably talking nonsense again klaxon # Anyone think it might be better to go into the second leg on 0-0 rather than with a slim advantage? Would rather we knew that we had to go for it at St Mary's as opposed to sitting back to protected a slender lead....

Mara looking for space between the lines now....

Easy for you to say

Isn't that the geezer from the Finnish Eurovision entry...?

Oooh... close KWP!

Che often drops back into midfield if he's not getting a sniff of the ball. Mara stays put waiting for the ball most of the time.

Mara's attitude has seemingly been shite recently, so there has to be better options otherwise, quite frankly, we don't deserve to go up if there isn't. Just because he had a good performance versus WBA once upon a time doesn't mean he's suddenly going to change his attitude today* #nonsequitur *Cue a superb performance now I've said that of course....

The tinkerman strikes again.... Edit: on reflection, poor choice of phrase. Ignore me
