    Minimum. Should have had fans look under their seats to find a Saints kit and their position in the lineup.

    It was a free hit for me. No problem. If it had worked great. It didn't, move on.

    We might have run afoul of the allowed number of changes (how does that work going cup match to cup match?), but surely we could have thrown a Long jersey on some under 18 and no one would have noticed.

    Well we don't have any other striker. Seager and Barnes are both just back from injury.

    If you maybe broke his phone so he couldn't access his emoji. That would destroy him.

    If we had lost on Wednesday then this result would have been disgraceful.

    But we didn't.

    And we are going to Wembley :D

    Genuinely don't understand why he keeps getting chances ... he's 24 for christ sake!!!

    I'm sure he's a decent player, but not at our level.

    Yeah nothing against him personally of course, I hope we find a club for him and all that, was there a reason we contracted him for so long? Usually we wouldn't do that unless someone had broken through already?

    Well well well, 2 words to sum that up: oh dear.

    Claude has to take the blame for that one.

    Never mind.

    Why is the media making a big thing out of Arsenal beating what was basically our youth team?

    I assumed it was to boost our Europa league quota at the time (he signed a new 2 yr contract around the time we qualified) so maybe it's that?

    Either that, or Les Reed's son is his agent <laugh>

    Thought we would lose when I saw the teams. Expected 2or 3 -0. Havent counted up the games for each side but just counting the number of international appearances for each side, we were novices.Spent most of game watching individuals. Isgrove never seems to make an impact. Pierre seems get more erratic every game. Thought the newbies did as well as possible. If you add up the games played by Sims, McQueen, Stephens, Gardos Reed you might get to double figures. Positives were Gardos playing a proper match and the academy lads getting game time. Ive seen the full strength side play as badly as that in the past at Hull. On we shuffle to Swansea.

    Agreed. Like having to put an animal out if it's misery. Not premier league quality unfortunately.
