Essential now that we go on a great FA Cup run, given we are unlikely to achieve European qualification through the League.

Effectively our only chances of playing European football next year is through winning the FA Cup or Europa.

.....losing in the final often gets a Europa League place.

It would be our luck not to be the case lol

Doesn't matter if it's league or cup we won't play any better unless Martinez either sorts his team selection out, or gets peddled. Sadly I see neither happening

....clinging on to every bit of hope, Esk. I'm sure things will pick up. All the very best to you and yours, Matey.

I agree re things picking up, too much talent on and off the field for this run to continue IMO....

Give it a rest mate. Ross and Lukaku could hit form, Jimmy Mac and Stones come back in next week and we'd beat west ham comfortably. Every post you're crying like it's the footballing equivalent of Armageddon.

.....also, we are at an ok points total for this point in the season. 20 points at Xmas is always a benchmark to survival, other have to catch up but it is important we start picking some up soon.

eeek just had a look out of curiosity for ticket availability for the cup match, take your pick! It says a lot about the discontent surrounding the club at the moment. Got my seat and at the moment I'll be all alone, even in GT5. At least I can fart in peace.

We need Stones back Oviedo has got to play Kev and McCarthy need to play and we will beat them .

Agree, I said yesterday we only need to get to 35 points to be safe, although I expect us to finish on 48 or 49 points.....

Your naive If you think our problems are just one or two players not on form mate. Somethings massively wrong atm

What's massively wrong? What the papers are telling you? A young manager, on his first european campaign, is making a few mistakes and some of his big players are out of form.

There's not much more to it than that as far as I can see.

There isn't 3 worse teams in the league than us mate.

We have a top 6 quality squad 4 points outside of relegation.

We look clueless and the players look like they have given up.

I think your massively underestimating our current situation mate.

Not sure if a cup run would be desirable. Rather see the team sorted in the league, get the team back to scoring goals and not leaking goals, wins under the belt to secure our league position.
