We never got much acclaim when we were “good” we aren’t going to get any now, I posted at the start of the season about how two of the Guardains football weekly podcasters had us at 19th and 18th in their pre season predictions. This is the first FA Cup 3rd weekend where relegation has been off the table for quite a while.

But the club is a mess and it’s David Moyes fault. If he hadn’t of left when he did we wouldn’t be in this mess we are now, but it is what it is. This is how we’re thought of throughout the media.

One good thing at least is Sunderland had lots of travelling this week. Two trips to London and now they have to get down here for lunchtime Sat.

It is a very tough schedule for everyone and they have 3-4 at AFCON themselves.

Should've replicated last year's schedule and have this midweek round after FA Cup 3rd round.

Very hard to predict as will both be mix and match 11s. Wouldn't risk Tarks for this as if he picks up a knock then it will be a comical backline out for the Villa game so need to avoid that at all costs. Guessing Beto will start but options are very limited.

Probably a 0-0 and goes to penalties type game.

Who do we play at CB if not Tarks?

Moyes was a centre half. Maybe his boots still fit.

And we have a winger for Grealish

Not looking forward to this at all.

Best chance we've got is to treat it like an away game, defend properly and nick one down the other end.

We all know the limitations of the players we'll have on show, but we have to hope they can somehow get us through this round. Another early cup exit will be demoralising.

Travelling up early tomorrow morning with my dad and my son for their first visits to the new ground. So excited. Fearing the worst with what we’ve got available but footballs football.

Hate the fact it's an absolute joke of a kick off time. Having a 3pm start would've given us more chance of a decent atmosphere. Hopefully the fans recognise how difficult tomorrow is going to be and dig deep to help get the players over the line.

We don't usually.
All depends on how we start the game or if the ref gives a stupid decision against us.
