sturutter Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 We are looking at a season that is going to go into our history as very forgettable. There is one remaining way we could make it memorable, especially for the fans Tonight's win has given us the licence. If it means sacrificing preparations for the Milwall game to a small extent, screw it, lets do it. Nobody is going to be arrogant and say 'we're definitely not going down,' but the picture is looking very good. Nine points is a very big cushion at the bottom. The old manager returning makes it more spicy, but it's exciting enough without that. Win on Saturday,.and we are one win from Wembley. If we don't get a ' maybe winnable' one in the draw for the quarters, at least that means we have a great day out away at one of the Manchester clubs, or indeed Wembley, to play Tottenham. Our opposition on Saturday CANNOT afford to take their eye off the league. We can. Let's take advantage. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

damianb1 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 I'm just gutted we can't play exactly the same starting 11, thought Clare had a class full debut. Would love to smash the charlatan on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulsar Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 (edited) We were all buzzing in the car on the way home, so many good performances. I really didn't expert that against a good Derby side on a great run and unbeaten away in 5 months. I have a funny feeling we are going to have our best cup run in years (we already have if truth be told) Yep, let's play the same side and bash Swansea! Ouch! Just realised we can't play the exact same side. Edited February 14, 2018 by Pulsar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sturutter Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 (edited) This one is a lot more debatable I know, but I even would play Wildsmith, and promise Dawson in exchange the same number of games if/when we are mathematically safe.

Even if we had lost last night it was just a matter of time before JL starts winning games. He is doing a great job with limited materials. So there you have it.

PortlandOwl Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 I just hope the return of CC doesn't turn into a distraction. Forget him, let's just go out and beat Swansea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthefish2002 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Think Saturday is a well winnable game. Wouldn't be first time a Premiership club in relegation trouble didn't take a Cup game that seriously. Think Carlos was guilty of this a couple of times when he was at Wednesday.

alanharper Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Really hope we play as strong a team as possible. Only chance to salvage some respect from this shambolic season, plus there's the financial side which will help with FFP - winning in the 5th round guarantees around £430k in prize money and TV fees alone, and that's before even adding any quarter final gate receipts which could potentially be huge if we got Man Utd or Spurs away. If we got lucky and got through the quarters as well that's another million quid before adding the receipts from the Wembley semi which would probably double that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Newsome Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 If we win the cup it'll go down as one of our greatest ever seasons, let's go for it. Sadly the king is returning and he'll really want to stick it to the haters who outed him then slagged him off for joining another club, he's coming for revenge.
