Quite pleased we have drawn a side that there will be no massive expectation to beat. I have no doubt whoever the 11 are that start will be trying their hardest to win but if we had drawn a championship side or lower we would be expected to win even with a depleted team. A loss against such a side may of kicked kick off the press on their 'bubble bursting' theory whereas if we loose against Spurs I don't think that will affect the players at all.
I say **** it. I would put trying to get into the europe lge & may be even the champions lge as a priority way above the FA cup. I know the FA cup is a big comp, but I just think it would be fantasic to see us make europe next season.
Agree, fringe changes for me for the FA Cup, i'd rather we focus on the league this year given our position. If we were mid-table, i'd say play a strong side in the cup to see how far we can go, but this season is all about IF we can finish in europe, while serving egg to pundits faces.
yeah, it's a bit of a no brainer, I suppose the real tough choice comes if you make it to round 5 or 6 and you're still in contention
Bizzarely Arsenal winning tonight might just help us .. give us incentive to move back top which can only happen if we turn Citeh over ... Come on!!!!!! Forza Claudio
Standing could be brought back at Premier League grounds STANDING at Premier League matches could be brought back, it was revealed last night. http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/lat...uld-be-brought-back-at-Premier-League-grounds Never left us. Ah well atleast those little kids will be able to see the pitch as they´ll be getting tickets in seating areas & not have some large bloke standing in front of him not giving a ****. All those that want to stand can head to the kops.
Heads up guise. There's a wee manky guy running about the forum causing chaos. His name is Jiffy LYT. He is an islamic fundamentalist Celtic supporter. Do not interact with this nasty piece of work. Do not click on any links he posts. They will take either to awfully shocking porn sites or Muslamic Jihadi videos both of which could see in trouble with the authorities. He has been reported many times to the moderation on this site but they refuse to do anything about him. We think he may be a relation of the owner.

Not all his signings was bad. Remember Momo Sylla, Elvis Hammond, Patrik Gerrbrand, Peter Gilbert, Rab Douglas, Alan Maybury, Joe Hamill He signed Iain Hume, Patrick Kisnorbo, Matty Fryatt and Paul Henderson But apart from them 4 everyone else was completely ****
Think it would be the perfect job for him, they aren't afraid to invest and he'll do what McClaren should have done years ago.
Good fit for NP ... provided he can set up a team to play in the 'Derby way' ... whatever the hell that is?
