    Nothing to lose at all here. Hope we have a proper go at them. Shelvey to score the winner in the 90th minute.

    it doesn't matter what we do we will lose... imo the old counter attacking tactic would be wise

    You are probably right but the problem is the whole plan is blown out of the window if they score first and it seems hard to then go onto the front foot. Its the FA Cup - might as well lose 7-3 as 1-0.

    Didn't we concede first when we beat them?

    You are correct again. They scored after 1min so blows my theory right out of the water.

    Not doing very well with you over the last couple of days.

    Didn't you debunk Pouchy literally using this example over Rafa/Bruce?

    Nobody debunks Pouchy - at least in his mind anyway.

    However if someone did it was probably a far wiser man than me.

    You just said 8 posts ago that it doesn't matter what we do they will win. So surely if that's the case we should have a go.

    Or are you now changing your mind and saying that we do have a chance if we try and ruin the game?

    It's a bit pathetic when you have to try and steal my acknowledgement to DPP that he is smarter and more knowledgeable than me.

    FA Cup Prediction league grudge match coming up.

    Not if you can't win - you may as well choose numbers that you like. Or better still not choose any.

    You have just proved my point - absolutely nothing of any importance to lose.

    the point is if you choose the wrong numbers you have no chance.

    My argument though is that if you tell me that there is no chance of me winning then it doesn't matter which numbers I choose.

    Are you now changing your mind and saying we have a chance of winning?
