Its the week break that will make Poyet put out his strongest team, whereas if they had played tonight, he may well have chucked in some squad players. Saying that, he won't want a back log of games, & that's what he's going to get by winning or drawing with us.
 
I am actually partly pleased Sunderland don't play tonight. They would possibly have written that game off and maybe taken a spanking which would have been perfect fodder for Poyet to wind them up for the Cup. I'm happy. Now they have to start from an unemotional flat position.

Regrettably Poyet should have no problem winding them up for a cup game and the chance to do us over again. On the plus side, Mauricio and the boys will be similarly determined.
 
Yep, one assumes Poyet will want a replay even less now than he presumably did before.
 
Surprised that the game at Stoke is still on. Apparently seriously strong winds in the midlands and North west tonight. The Britannia is seriously windy on the best of days.
 
Well Mr Clattenberg, I wonder what you said to Mr Rooney? He has come at you spitting some verbal bashing twice and kicked the ball away once when a decision went against him.

"You've changed Wayne, but not as much as that Lallana, so I won't book you"

"You're pretty much exactly as you have always been, Wayne."
 
People will know by now that I generally don't give a fig about other teams, unless their fixtures have an effect on Saints position in the league, but I must say that tonight's games are proving fairly interesting in their own right.

Sadly, Liverpool have just equalised at Fulham, to make it 1-1, but Spurs leading Newcastle is a good 'un. Stoke are going through a slightly purple patch since beating ManU, leading Swansea 1-0.
