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.

I'm guessing you're NOT saying he would have scored?

Can only imagine the furore had Pears made a pass like Toth seemingly made. From the sounds of the Radio commentary I feel sorry for those that made the journey up in tricky conditions.

I went on BBC live scores and there's a link on there to live commentary on Radio Lancs. It'll be that and Liverpool v Accy with the sound turned down for me watching Tyler Morton struggle to make an impression. Who the hell in the US would want to watch Boro v Rovers in the Cup?

Whatever you think of them, that's why we've signed the cover.

You could hurt yourself slipping in the shower at home or be involved in a car accident on the way to work or get injured in the very next League game. You can't operate on the assumption the worst case scenario might happen.

It's a maximum of six games between now and May and that's if we win the entire thing! Makes no difference whatsoever in the general scheme of things.

Waste of a wage if he isn't playing and/or isn't deemed to be up to Championship level now

No. That's why I said it.

Is that solely for overseas consumption? Not on our Virgin package and I thought we had virtually everything.

Quite pleased with the reasonably starting line up. Nowt much on the bench though.

Can't decide whether you've missed the sarcasm or not...........

It's not a free hit - we need to win a bloody game!

Yippee! The rationale behind this move from the Club's point of view seems to be cheapness. If Nixon is correct that we were only contributing 6k p.w. towards Baker's wage then we've probably been looking for a deal within the same budget rather than concentrating on quality.

The only thing I'll say in his defence fitness wise is that he seems to have made 16 appearances this season. Although as they were for Plymouth who are rooted to the bottom of the table that is not necessarily a badge of honour. Can you imagine if he comes in as (very) short term cover for Travis and lasts about half an hour in true Fleck stylee.........

Yeah only one fan said our recruitment team must be on smack. Another suggested spice! And everyone else was in full agreement. Not one dissenting voice.

I'd be surprised if even they were that brass necked. I'll be pleasantly surprised though if we bring in the quality we need up front to sustain a play off push I'd think it'd be more likely to be a couple of low grade, low cost signings along the lines we've just made. Even that would be enough to see Eustace off in the short to medium term I reckon. What would be the point for him in carrying on? Hoping to be proved completely wrong obviously.
