Dark Munster

Phoning an ambulance?

Well in fairness he may get 4p in the pound for it. Corrected.

Yes, isn't that an infraction offense?

No, but their brothers are rumoured to be about to sign.

What did they do?

No room for sentiment from now on. Safety being assured, play the strongest team in the cup.

F**k

Good point. Whereas a cup win will be forgotten a year later. Play the kids, I say, this Saturday.

Full strength team, no-one being rested/protected. If no-one gets injured/suspended, I'll be very happy and those that called it will tell me "I told you it was ok to play a full-strength team." If a key player gets injured/suspended, I'll say "I told you it was too risky to play a full-strength team."

They wouldn't have got injured if they hadn't played (dropped salad cream bottles on feet excepted).

It's not that simple. More likely for a key player or two to get injured or even suspended. Not to mention we want the team to be as fresh as possible for Saturday.

Like. Maybe replace Reed with Adam and Boruc with Kelvin. Full strength for Saturday, of course.

Great idea, and at the end of the season we can celebrate with a song like this:

Premiership survival is the number 1 priority for teams like Stoke (and us!) so it would take silly money for them to sell Shawcross to us. And we tend not to want to spend silly money.

Only those who think we can't win the FA cup.

Why would Stoke want to sell Shawcross?

I'm not a big fan of Pulis but I have to say his transformation of Palace (who looked dead and buried) has been remarkable.

Bollocks. Two of Citeh, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arse will be out. The 2 remaining will have much bigger fish to fry. Oh, and has anyone mentioned Wigan?

For Sunderland, yes. Not for us.

He did have 3 assists. 2 for Stoke, and 1 for us (giving away the free kick for SRL to hammer home).

Let's win the cup first and then cross that bridge afterwards.

Its magic will be restored if we win it.

Definitely not lose against Gus's mob, FA cup should be our priority. 2 draws wouldn't be bad, Gus would hate having a replay with them still in a relegation fight.

Does that mean big Vic was taken off because of an injury, and not because he was playing crap?
