Job done. Might not have always been pretty but in the FA Cup all that matter is being in the velvet bag for the next round.

Take it and move on but didn't fill me with any confidence at all.

Job done in the end, much better once Heskey was off as we tried to pass. All three goals were very nice. Pretty angry at Dunne's lack of professionalism and laziness for their goal.

We won. That's all I ask for. It's our year!

However, the less said about our ball retention and Stephen Warnock the better.

Job done - even allowing for half the defence switching off in stoppage time.

Nice easy home tie would be nice.

And a couple of new defenders too.

Anybody seen Paulie? Hope he's okay.

We're through to the next round which is all that matters. Very similar to the Reading cup game. We were poor but did enough to get through.

nothing to do with building confidence playing a 4th division team. This could have been tricky. We are in the next round.

Warnock is just woeful - even in a game against lesser opposition his passing and crossing is dreadful.

Time to get rid.
