What's done is done. Swansea did what both we and Arsenal should have done on Sunday. Bradford deserved thier day out, Swansea will never win an easier final again.

Our boys gave it a good go at the Emirates on Saturday, Man City next (oh dear), at home (oh dear, oh dear) lets see whether we can just about claw our way back out of the crap and stay in this league, the cup is an irelevance compared to Premier League status.

I wouldn't like to be seen as 'giant killers' when we win our FA Cup 3rd Round Tie against Wigan,  Southampton or Cardiff next season!

I could barely listen to the build up yesterday let alone watch the game and seeing Swansea take Bradford to the cleaners merely highlighted our own shortcomings

Our failure to beat a 4th division side over two legs for a chance to play in a cup final will hurt for many years to come; hope Lambert and the players enjoyed their Sunday off - I know I didn't

Swansea sell their best players btw...Sigurdsson (o.k it was only a loan but he was excellent second half of the season) Joe Allen and Scott Sinclair all left on the eye of the season aswell as the manager who got them promoted.

Just shows it's not so much declining from selling players but how you replace them.

Am I alone in not really having given our semi final "performances" a second thought yesterday?

No you're not.  If you ignore the CoC Cup final and pretend it isn't happening it's easy!
