Well Pooch, Dancing and I having been saying this all season ....... so here goes again ........ play Maguire and Evatt at the back and stick Hird just in front of them and build a team from there.
The result, the performance, none of it really mattered to me. Once I saw Tommy wasn't fit yet again the Vanarama alarm bells went off big time. If his fitness is so much in doubt it will stop him getting the games he urgently needs and prevent Jack building a settled, coherent defence won't it? Joe Anyon wants to do well but long-term he just isn't capable and a few good saves only provide false hope.
3 minutes 59 seconds must be one of the shortest cup runs in history. In a cup match the opposition is happy to let you play a bit without causing too many problems if they are in front. They're just waiting for the inevitable error to come and their second goal ........
4 minutes into our cup run and we go 1-0 down to Newcastle United. Odd world, football innit?
