What I want really is for Pep to play his first team and for maureen to play his kids, but that wont happen as much as i could guess what team Pep will be tinkering out tonight, because it is either win or lose tonight and if it goes to pens then we are in the doodoo

Don't know about that Buzz, our Willy is a penalty stopper extraordinaire.

Hope it doesn't get to that, but yup, Willy is the man for a penalty shut out :021:

I don't know, call me old fashioned, but I believe you play your strongest team in every match you play, we play the Rags tonight, and in any other time going to the swamp we would be apprehensive, and some would be cautious, 2ven with our strongest side in the days of the dark lord, but now we are saying play some kids!!!! HELL NO, SMASH EM, GRIND EM INTO THE GROUND, PUT 6 PAST EM IF NOT MORE, but play the kids, not in this game... it's to big, If we got say Oldham , Bury, pompey even then yes, but tonight, not on your life.....

Maureen clearly bricking it. How beautiful it would be if we did them.

 

[Buzz Lightyear]

I think we just handed it to them on a plate.

 

[Buzz Lightyear]

Last years player of the century Martial not playing

 

[Johnny Baguette]

José Partridge might have something to crow about in the Lowry tonight!

 

[Brutto]

Midfield on the light side - could struggle.

 

[Rising]

Very disappointed. Towel well and truly thrown in.

:004:

 

[Johnny Baguette]

I hope this does not suggest a lack of interest in this competition (ahem) but when is the draw for the next round? :066:

 

[Bluedub]

Strong rag line up but looks unbalanced to me, interesting to see how they line up.

 

[Johnny Baguette]

Be interesting to see what Carlton Pogba comes up with...

I'm sure his hairdresser won't let us down :073:

 

[Colin Is The King]

To answer your question, Johnny, sure the draw for the next round follows tonight's game :006:

 

[Buzz Lightyear]

I just hope we don't get too hammered, maybe an offside goal or two a sending off wrongly and two dives which fools the ref will be the only saving grace we can expect, but part of me wants to quote Private Frazier come the final whistle

 

[Johnny Baguette]

Pep on telly right now. In abrasive mood. Says this cup is bottom of the priorities.
