Don't really know anything about him but would it be unfair to say Hedges Mk 2 on the other side of the pitch?

Why on earth would you want that? Surely the aim is to get through!

Don't mention that, even in jest. Would truly be the stuff of nightmares. Rumour has it if you mention them together three times they materialise like Candyman.

Don't you have to pay for the crap he churns out on Patreon though? I think that was the point being made.

I still think Jeffrey Schlupp would be a pretty good signing. He'll probably have better offers though. Bamford I'd wager would be a horrifically expensive flop, and that's if he even stayed fit. I got mixed up at first between Jed Spence and Jed Wallace and couldn't understand why people were moaning about that! Now I understand. Would be extremely disappointed with that. BBD would not be without a slight element of risk but he's a lot better than what we've currently got. I'd certainly take him but as with Schlupp difficult to see him choosing here if Sheff Utd (where he did quite well) and Sunderland are after him. Overall, I think have to hope we have other exciting irons in the fire the media haven't caught up on yet.

I want an "easy" tie to give us the best chance of reaching the last 16! I agree that the last 16 is when it feels like the competition starts in earnest. And if you can reach the last 8 (as we have done several times under Venky's ownership but blown it) I find that almost too exciting for words as you're only 90 mins away from the new Wembley.

Semi final at Wembley it is then.

It would be a quick chance to put that right.

It seems to me people judge Leonard far more harshly because he is an academy graduate and just assume he wont be good enough. If we'd paid £5m for him I reckon a lot would be saying, "he's showing some encouraging signs he'll come good". Don't think anyone is really giving him any leeway either on the fact he's had a fairly serious injury and an extremely long time out. Something Eustace alluded to today in his post match interview when he said Harry was "getting fitter all the time" which I must admit is something I hadn't really taken into account either.

If we don't get the theoretically easier Wycombe at home type draw then I wouldn't mind the Dingles at home again. As long as we win this time.

Has anyone checked his birth certificate?

He's absolutely top class. If we did somehow scrape up via the play offs he's the only player in the current squad who's Premier League quality imo. Shame he isn't our player.

Probably. It seems they were hell bent on not paying compensation for anyone fortunately. I think (stand to be corrected) everyone they interviewed was out of work. They even spoke to Mowbray apparently.

Probably moving from the first to the second at this point. Wish WBA would get a move on and confirm their managerial appointment.

Sorry didn't see your post.

Don't worry. "THE BIG SIGNINGS ARE COMING!" (I've no idea why I'm reminded of Mowbray's "defenders" at this point.)

Oh dear ..... Eddie won't be happy! Lol. I liked his comments about the tradition and importance of the FA Cup.

Kevin Gallagher reckoned he should have thrown his cap on the one he palmed away and caught it. Not that Pears is any better in that respect mind.

No, you were right 1st time.

Just picking a tie we should in theory get through. If a team lower ranked than Wycombe get through, I'll take that instead.

Great result! Made up with that. Well done to John Eustace for putting out a reasonably strong side and not bowing to the 11 changes brigade. Wycombe at home in round 4 please!

Oh give over.

Thank goodness for that.....

What's Weimann done there? Missed an open goal from 2 yards out according to the commentators.........

Loan of a lad who was relegated last season and now cant get in a League 1 side and a deal until the and of the season for a 33 year old who's had his contract cancelled by the side bottom of the table. Waggott will be delighted to see the amount of positive and neutral reaction to these two fairly dire signings. Proves the Club can sign more or less anyone and get away with it. Might even get away with signing no-one else if he chucks in the obligatory "January is a notoriously difficult window to do business in - we tried our best but it wasn't to be" after the window has finished.
