It's pretty sad the way the FA Cup is going, for the sake of having to work an extra 5 or so games (realistically 2/3ish). Unfortunately for us Burnley are losing, meaning they're now likely to get promoted.
 
Nuuuuge!
 
Nugent Dyer on

Jeff and King off

Are you shitting me? This is what I don't get.. what is the point of playing a weakened side, then introducing some of our better players towards the end of the game anyway...?? Baffling really.

Like I said yesterday, we weren't really expected to win this like we were the Huddersfield game but I have to question what Pearson is thinking for these cup games.

Because playing 20 mins in the game is less tiring and less risk of injury than playing 60/70/90 mins?

You don't have to, you choose to.
