That was just a little bit more interesting than the F1.

Where’ve you got that idea from? Any tactical or injury knowledge which we can keep somewhat ambiguous in public is advantageous to an extent. Even if it’s something like whether we’re going to play Manning or Stephens; Brum not knowing keeps them guessing, even if neither player is a world beater.

Or they want to keep our opponents second guessing our team.

My main gripe with the Liverpool game was KWPs injury, hopefully he’s not out for too long. I’m also hoping we have Downes back for this one.

They’ve checked out now, this could be 5-0 if they’re not careful.

Which calm, composed finishers should we be playing instead?

What do you mean? He’s done everything right, in the balance of play we should be 4-1 up. No game plan in the world can mitigate for some of the schoolboy individual errors tonight.

F**king brainless from Smallbone now, game over. What’s wrong with this lot tonight.

That was f**king dreadful. Nobody can blame Martin for this, the players are scuffing chances a toddler would bang into a Fisher Price goal.

You might say they’ve been keen but not quite right.

That’s what happens when you have a confident, first time, instinctive shot. You make your own luck, to an extent.

Inevitable.

FFS Mara!

I’m pretty sure that was Stephens he was leaning on. Hope this helps.

I don't think that one was quite in the Gabbiadini realms of 'we were robbed'.

This is going to be like that tie at West Ham a few years ago, when everyone was furious at Ralph for putting the reserves out and we went and spanked them. 3-0 Saints, COYS!

He could really get his teeth into a game like this.

Who said anything about attacking anyone? I'd be more than happy for NATO troops to go and hang out in the none-occupied part of Ukraine. Russia is perfectly free to leave them alone, which they obviously would.

So sending troops to Ukraine would constitute escalatory warmongering? Is there anyone else you think that perhaps might apply to?

Meth. Not even once.

Beating Liverpool at Anfield is not more realistic than overhauling a 5 point gap on Leeds and Ipswich and even if it was, that just gets us into the next round against (probably) another PL side.

I'd like to think that the team aren't quite as defeatist as this. Yes, it looks unlikely we'll beat Leeds and Ipswich but I doubt we've thrown the towell in with over ten games still to play.

We’ve literally never done anything like that.

I had to turn that off before it gave me diabetes.

I’ve yet to watch a single game in the history of football where I was glad to see extra time.
