    Been struggling to log in.

    Not sure what to expect on Sunday as I was surprised that we were so poor against Brentford. I did not see that coming. I did expect Saints to sail through this tie. I am now thinking we are evenly matched.

    I felt that Martin' s tenure was either going to be a revelation where his style of football was better suited to the Premiership or whether he was not as good as many supposed last season. The squad strikes me as being diminished by the summer's additions and I would like Juric to dispense with the regulars and give some younger players a go.

    I am amused by the previous enthusiasm on here for Tall Paul. Reminds me of Paul Moody.

    Never experienced a season which has been so pointless. In my opinion SR have to go and we need some professionals to run the club.

    I have been having issues with the site tonight, can't get the edit function to work and it takes several attempts to get a message to post?

    Bang on! It’s embarrassing and frankly very disrespectful to our previous heroes and likeable villains who wore the numbers on the backs of the shirts for this team to be fanatically supported unless they rapidly change their mindset and effort!!

    I dont thonk the players haven't downed tools. A handful of them never picked up the tools in the first place, but the majority are being made to look bad because of them.
    F*cks sake, if Downes isn't back for Utd then that'll be another thrashing.

    As in “everyone’s first choice” if we get through?

    "If" was doing a lot of heavy lifting. I thought "We are Ball Number 1" was the hasty part!

    If this fixture takes place, there could be the highest ever number of own goals, as both teams go all out to lose

    No thanks to Derby. Still not over last time we drew them and we missed out on a trip to Accrington.
