    Cannot believe we have 2 pages of comments on such an unimportant game.

    Have no interest in this and would prefer to rest everyone that is anywhere near our 1st team. An injury to Doucoure or Rich and we are buggered

    True but it is an opportunity fro the new gaffer to try out some stuff. Ultimately I would actually prefer a loss on this one so that we can focus on the looming relegation battle.

    Cannot believe a fan of a club with 0 (zero) trophies won in 137 years of trying has no interest in a cup match at a time when we have the best squad in the entire history of the club.

    But I suppose we might win the 17th place cup.

    I must read these books again soon and mend even watch the BBC series again. Mrs kVA will hate that!

    I usually think football manager / player interviews are reletively pointless but I am impressed by what Gracia is saying.

    Already 10x the man Silva is instead of looking for excuses before we’ve even lost and pointing the finger the day before the game.

    I'm looking forward to starting a chant of 'You're getting sacked in the morning' if we go 1-0 down

    Plenty said the same thing under QSF, yet they all rocked up to the semi final...

    The undeniable truth First Team Captain

    ...and we barely won another point as we and the players seemingly got so excited about a cup we were never going to win. At least that time we had enough points in the bag to effectively be safe. The distraction of a run to the semis this time would probably cost us relegation.

    I see moyes is at it now:

    "“It’s a strange thing that they won the FA Cup and were relegated five years ago,” said David Moyes, looking ahead to this tie. “If you look back and ask Wigan if they’d rather have won the Cup or stayed in the Premier League, I think their people would have rather stayed in the Premier League.” "

    I bet their fans wouldnt, you gollum-faced failure.

    So do I sunshine, so do I. You wouldn't be able to see over me and, if you should step out of line with your negative entitled whining, you would get slapped into row Z.

    Thought you were going to say we should rest all our posters.

    The type of thorough & scientific approach which was the hallmark of the younger Wenger.

    I owe you an apology nascot - I have confused you with nathwfc - with whom I have previous.

    So, I'm sorry for my comments. If ever I should meet you at a match, then I would buy you a pint. You may sit behind me.

    PS I am no fool but I am (as you put it) "hard"......

  21. Such a high profile match that the BBC haven't bothered with a preview. The only Saturday game that hasn't got a preview.

    I miss the evening standard five aside, had a really good couple of nights there. Much beer and singing along with an actual victory.

    We need to start a petition.

    Interestingly, the home fans will probably be singing this if we go 1-0 up.

    If we score first it’s going to be interesting how Gracia acts in what Silva may have done. Stick or twist when they come at us near the end?

    I would think a change would only be then used to bolster the tiring midfield and or defence. If Silva was in charge and both Feeney and Grey scored he’d sub them both and put Pantillimon up front.

  31. Still no preview at 9:15 Saturday morning. Still take comfort that tomorrow's Chelsea Newcastle game hasn't either, (although Cardiff Man C has).

    Karnezis (GK); Janmaat, Mariappa, Kabasele, Holebas; Doucouré, Watson (C); Carrillo, Capoue, Richarlison; Gray.

    One bad thing about Silva being sacked is that Capoue survives another window..

    "Why isn't he ****ing resting Richarlison?!!??"
