Yes, we lost.

Lets look at it positively now.

It was our best start to a season in over 10 years and a loss was eventually coming, so we should be grateful it was only a cup game and not the league.

The southern press will probably come up with some crap about how we played badly and whatnot, but who cares? I'm really proud of how the lads have performed up till now, we've gone against all expectations and earned the respect of a few pundits along the way. So lets take this on the chin, move on and get behind the lads on Monday night and try for those 3 points.

HTL!

 

! What, no Coloccini rant?

 

I'm absoultely gutted, but over the moon at how we scored 2 in injury time and then got another equaliser. I love how we battle on all of the time and love how much the players love playing for the shirt.

We will bounce back!!

 

Why would I do that, he's the love of my life!

 

No, we drew

 

Honestly get the impression with this team we have now that a loss like this will merely spur them on.

 

the 90 result is a draw still unbeaten by the bookies

 

Yep and hopefully Perch will never play for us again. Don't know how he played as I just watch Sky Sports News and he never got mentioned, but can't be a coincidence that he plays vs Forest and we concede 3 and play against Blackburn and concede 4 lol.

What was our midfield today?

 

Marveaux Guthrie Cabaye Jonas

Then Sammy subbed on for Simpson (not sure where sammy played though) and Obertan subbed on for Marv.

With regards to Perch, I'd say its probably more a case of splitting up Taylor and Colo that caused a defensive **** up.

 

I blame Perch

 

Yeah, at least Krul played and not Elliot lol.

As I say, was a great come back in the first place and how many teams would come back to score 2 in injury time? not many

 

Pity about the result but the fighting performance is a very big positive we can take out of the game. It will be interesting to see how we bounce back from the lose; on the evidence of todays performance I think it will be good reaction.

 

Definetly! Its guttering, but proud of the lads.

As someone else mentioned, Steve Kean with that grin on his face will make me wanna hunt the **** down lol

 

On the bright side, the Virus thingy has gone.

I don't blame Perch on that -_-

 

In a way, I think we needed this. It's going to stop us getting complacent as a team which was becoming evident in recent performances.

 

Agreed. I'd sacrifice this mediocre cup happily if it keeps us focussed and in form in the league.

 

Yeah, hopefully we will react to it - I think we will. The team spirit is class.

Hard run of games now like, but them teams won't be looking forward to playing us

 

I would have liked to see Vuckic on the bench, does anyone know why he wasn't there

 

We have a good squad so its hard for players to get in. Probably not 100% yet I would think
