Its a blessing in disguise

[paulbefc]

Some of the reactions from you lot on here - you'd swear that we've just been relegated or something.

We lost against a full strength-Championship Promotion Chasing team when we made 6 changes from the match before.

Was Moyes taking it seriously?

No.

Sky just built it up so it made it look like we were up it.

I'm pretty sure he was and I should f*cking hope he bleeding well was.

Christ, it's going to be 18 years without a trophy here if we don't win the FA cup. Do we have to reach twenty or something before people twig on to this being important/downright embarrassing???

"Tell your ma, your ma, to wipe away all your tears. No trophies for 18 years".

I guess you weren't there on Wembley way in April being serenaded thus by the kopites after we'd cocked up again? We cannot afford to look down our noses at ANY trophy anymore. Calling this trophy "sh*te" and dismissing it is something the top 4 can do and possibly those who've won something very recently. We are nowhere near that category. I'm not crying about last night as the start to the season has been otherwise good so far, but I will be f*cking furious if we go out to lower league opposition in the FA cup this year or go out due to not "taking it seriously" however well we're doing.

No, they were more weakened than we were.

THIS^^^^^ they had about 6 players missing. we never turned up it's that simple.

Is right. And you only have to watch Moyes' face to see he wanted it too.

I'm struggling to think of a time when Moyes has voluntarily rotated the squad and we've won.

Just before the semi, he made 4 or 5 changes and we mullered Sunderland.

Just shows how weak our squad depth really is. Get Hitlerburger in - he would have rifled one in last night from 50 yards, and earned us a replay

Good spot.

very good point chico

We've won a bunch of european and early cup rounds with second string teams I think. Orient, Huddersfield, Hull etc.

what's this replay you speak of, it's extra time, penalties isn't it??? Got asked that in the pub last night I gave the latter answer i'm pretty sure there is no replays any more.

Would have gone to extra time and pens mate. They've scrapped replays I think.

hi mutzo how are you today mate

I'm well mate - good to see they let you out of the cooler!

Bah! stupid competition - "A blessing in disguise"

 

[Allezfan]

very good shout mate

Thanks carlos mate. You sound?

 

[Chang Elephant]

Think Scumbag is spot on with this. It's a **** cup, and we can now concentrate on a top 3 finish. Yo Carlos.

So Moyes gets slated for not trying out kids, not playing Coleman at right back, not playing Heitinga, playing Neville and when he tries everything and we lose guess what he gets slated...:huh:
