    Oops, I should have said it is on ESPN in mainland Britain and on the radio in North Wales.

    We seem to havea good performance followed by a not so good performance followed by a good performance and back to a not so good performance.

    So by that logic we will play a great game against Swansea ready to flop against City!

    This comment has staggered me to be honest. We have gone EIGHT years without a trophy, this is our only real shot at a trophy this season. **** this up, and it's nine years without a trophy, and we continue to be laughed at.

    Really though i do expect an improved performance. I think we will switch around the team a bit, give a couple of people a rest and also others a chance to impress. I think it'll be a strong team and i'm looking forward to seeing who plays and who is on the bench. Normally i'd say give some youth a chance but Swansea are a tough game and it's important we stay in the FA Cup.

    Rosicky if fit should start, even if it's only 45 mins. I'd like to see Giroud down the middle with pace out wide so we can really test them physically. I think maybe Walcott and podolski will be given a rest and oxocube will start on the right with gervinho on the left. As long as Gervinho isn't playing down the middle i don't mind him on the pitch!

    We've actually gone 7 seasons with no trophy, this will be the 8th if we don't win anything.

    Most seasons yes but i really fear for our chances of finishing above spuds this year. If we lose to both Chelsea and city we could be 11 points behind them. I'd rather risk losing to Swansea and give the likes of Cazorla and Arteta a rest.

    What a sad indictment <sic> about modern football.I know i'm old school but it's not that long ago that 3rd round FA Cup day was one of the most important days in the football calendar

    Well I'm with you old timer. I love the 3rd round of the FA cup. The day when the divisions meet and dreams of giant-killing cup runs start. There's a magic about the FA cup that will always last, no matter which grubby corporate sponsor attaches their name to it <ok>

    I always dread the idea of being drawn away at a league 2 club or lower

    I remember the Spuds getting done over at Port Vale back in the late 80's. They were completely outplayed too <ok>

    You said you were taking the missus up the arse - but you had to catch her up the mountain first.
