Which makes me think had we played a full strength team and been less passive from the start that they would have simply realised earlier that they were in a real game and had to get into higher gear - with the same result. We will never know unless we try.
I felt at times Eze was easing up and playing at a very relaxed pace, even for him. |

No the team would have been stronger and you are right.
Proving that 3 points in the league is their priority over a cup run unfortunately. |

Hof Brau gets a huge thumbs up from me.
I think it was the port knuckle I had in there one night - incredible amount of meat - and of course beer to wash it down. |

Brian as Marti cannot come on here and defend himself, then speaking on his behalf and trying to see it from his position and that he did not mean to disrespect the competition but on Sunday or Monday he finds that where he is with the injuries he felt he had to play that team tonight.
JCS and Morrison out, he needs 2 of Cook, Jimmy and Sam to cover CB for next 2-3 games, so tries to rest Jimmy who is also first choice RB so far. He has to therefore slot in Ashby and get him playing time in case, God forbid Cook or Field get an injury or red tonight and Jimmy HAS to play CB.
That takes Field out of Midfield and Colback was not even on the bench tonight - so is that rest or injury as well?
I think he could have and should have started with Frey tonight , I reckon he is robust enough to do 3 a week now - but again maybe that is a risk to far.
I think management diplomacy probably puts a positive spin on these cup games to say that they want to give us squad players their chance to show they are good enough, but the reality is probably that they are not and therefore to protect our league position and the managers’s job they have to be put in the firing line for one off games where our league position and the manager’s tenure is not affected over the coming weeks. |

Don’t want to start peeing on the good bit of positivity on here about the 2nd half but other than his goal which we gifted him the space I felt Eze was taking his foot of the gas with us in mind. Gave a better account of ourselves than I thought we might when I saw the team sheets but the few changes improved us 2nd half and we gave it a good go.
Like many really am worried about Celar. Really felt he gave nothing again tonight just ambling about with no real aggression. I just hope it is still a case of more game time needed against league opponents and having quality ball offered him to work with but he needs to start adding value. |

I think he has finally decided who is Paal and who is Dunne and sticking to it.
There can’t be owt left in Sheffield as their X Account being read out ever 2 mins is someone else crowing about watching with kids in Nerja or Santorini or Belgium.

Very sorry to hear your terrible new mate.
RIP Jim.
Look after yourself mate, whilst it is a very personal journey and one I find myself going through myself these last 3 months and my brother was James too, let it out if you can, however it needs to, talk and cry.
The good memories will brighten as the memories of the struggles and hardship begin to fade in time.
Take care of yourself mate and God bless Jim and that he is out of pain. |

And the stone that built the first Wembley stadium was quarried from what is now the Rickmansworth Aquadrome and brought to Wembley on the Grand Union Canal.
Not a lot of people know that! |

Jeez lads I come on here to try and get away from herself and her Pew joes, River Thems, modren, and all the other lovely Cork induced Hiberno-English pronunciation we are treated to by herself as me and the 3 girls sit looking at each other to see if anyone understood what mum is saying.
First time I went to the flicks without a parent in tow was the Evel Keneval FILUM (there is another Corkism)🤪 [Post edited 4 Sep 14:37]

It has a clear knock on effect too of delaying Whittingham’s post match report for those away day win occasions when the post-match Peroni based pizzups means he has to watch the whole thing again on the offy to remember anything at all from Friday night!!! |

I am on Virgin Media and had buffering issues last night all through the game - hence my sarky comment on the match thread about Sky outsourcing the Sports+ contract to a dodgy box company.
Pretty sure the Plym game last Saturday which was on the main Sky broadcast was perfect as it normally is on any Sky or TNT main broadcast channel, but I suspect that showing every game via the Red button must be putting some strain on Sky's server farm and network infra which is handling so many concurrent feeds from around the country.
Fortunately no buffering by the penalties! |
