    Aye, dragging the Mrs to her first game and the nipper will hopefully see his first win.

    Not happy with the thread title.
    a) It could come back and bite us badly if we lose
    b) Its not very complimentary to Cambridge. They are in 3rd Round of Cup. Mackems went out in the 1st.

    My Mola TV stream doesn't include the FA Cup so I have to figure out whether its worth paying an extra Rp179000 (£9) to BEIN to watch through to end of season. Previously I wouldn't have bothered as it would only be 1 round anyway. Think I will have to go for it this year as we are going to the final so should be value for money.

    Signed up now and watching replay of Man City - Swindon. Swindon actually not a bad little side. Hope Cambridge are not this good.

    I'm not bothered if we lose. I rarely say that but this year I don't give a **** about the FA Cup.

    I don't get why. If we're linked with all the players we are then they are the PL squad and the drivel left can be the cup squad.

    Reckon we'll do well and a way in to Europe. The dreams alive

    While a cup run is far from being our main target this season, I would definitely be bothered if we lost!

    I wouldn't want to lose but if we did I wouldn't feel it like a normal loss. I just think staying up this year would be massive in terms of how quickly these owners could move us up the table.

    If we win great but at this moment we've signed one player. So I'd play a load of reserves, try to win, but if they do heir usual, c'est la vie.

    I'm not suggesting playing our best eleven players, but I hope we put out a team that can win.

    Indeed. But use the squad smartly. At present with one new player, injuries are not good at all. My expectations lower a lot if the likes of Hendrick play.

    Will also be useful to know how to beat lower level opposition for when you get relegated this season :bandit:

    That said I want to see Stephenson, White and Anderson all Star

    I think we will put a team out that can. However they can lose too. More games, more chance of injury. They know the players and who needs to play to keep fresh, and who is not far from their next injury. But the players are poor. I want to see Anderson and other young players.

    You sending @CaraMatt ? You'll need to send him the location of 3 co-op branches greatest to IBWT so that he can triangulate when and where to do the deed

    If we lose I will take full responsibility and never post another match day thread for the remainder of the season - If we win however all the Jonah's that posted one so far this year don't get to post one till we're safe :emoticon-0167-beer::emoticon-0167-beer::emoticon-0167-beer:

    We always used to have a winner stays on rule. Think we went so long without a win that we forgot about it!!
