    Our only midweek off this month (before now) - the week in between the two cup SFs.

    Why?

    I don't see it as a massive issue tbh. Not like we're fighting for Europe or against relegation.

    Plus, this way at least if we get dicked on Wednesday our season isn't over :)

    We'll now have 8 games this month. That's why.

    If we win the replay then we'll have played 9 games in January.

    It's annoying not to have won the game, because of the opposition and having twice been involved. But I'm not overly fussed at having a replay per se. We'll almost certainly rotate again - probably quite extensively this time. And no doubt the same will apply for Norwich.

    Hopefully the club are sensible, and price the tickets at about £10.

    Norwich fans had boycotted the game over the price of a ticket, hope they get a better deal for the return game.

    really boys and girls - what would have been the point of rotating the players so much if it wasn't for this replay?

    It's in case someone says "bumhole" on a live recording. Gives them time to bleep anything offensive out.

    It really doesn't feel like we've stopped the rot. In the sense that we avoided defeat, sure, but further disappointment, more non-existent defending and this time it was against a Championship side.

    Quickly mate, I've been buzzing for this one all week now and have been trying (unsuccesfully!) to hide it.

    Bring it on!!

    He has done nothing wrong today. That team was good, is good enough and were it not for individuals today we would not even being discussing it.

    Also, we play on the Sunday after rather than the Saturday. But like I say, most will be rotated anyway. I could see Martina in for Virgil, for example, with Stephens moved across.
