    Do you not think that losing this weekend might actually be to the benefit of our league form? It could be the final nail in MP's coffin. Imagine what his sacking will do for morale and confidence of the players and the fans? Gotta lose it for me.

    Sacking of Pellegrino is the best thing you can hope from that match.

    Nah my hope is a win which could, just could, be part of something magical. I'll be hoping for something special until it's no longer possible.

    FA Cup third round weekend is one of the best weekends on the football calendar (as is the first) and I can't wait for the game.

    I agree, terrible to wish a loss on your team. Which is why I say “go out of the cup”.

    We cannot compete in the league and cup, we will be relegated if we try, especially with MP2 in charge.

    We cannot compete in the league full stop at present so at least let's try make a few good memories from this season.

    All I know is we're ****ing low on confidence right now and losing to a championship side isn't gonna help that one jot. Plus you never know, a good win just might breed some confidence.

    He ain't getting sacked by looks of it anyway.

    For the record, I do not really wish for a loss. I was just paraphrasing a post.
    But I wouldn't mind it though.

    So you’re assuming we’re already relegated? Well then yes of course a good cup run would be a nice distraction. But I haven’t given up hope of staying up.

    They will have to sack him unless we go on a run. Many a club have given “full backing “ before sacking a manager.

    No I'm not saying that I'm just saying I don't think a cup win is going to do any great harm.

    'unless we go on a run' - a low pressure cup tie sounds a great opportunity to do that imo.

    Winning is habit forming. So, unfortunately, is losing. Saturday is an opportunity to break a bad habit.

    I totally agree. We need a win....doesn't matter if it is Fulham in a Cup....it lifts the spirits. I don't believe that a cup run harms any team....we have a squad of players.

    I can't ever remember being less excited for a game. Thanks Pellegrino.

    Based on Krueger's interview it sounds like he will get the season. We will be looking for a replacement in the summer I reckon, regardless of whether we survive or not.
