Any news on when the draw for the 3rd Round is?
Draw straight after the Morecambe - Newcastle game on Sky.

Very pleased for us that nobody has been chosen for England with all the tapping up that happens, but not as pleased for the players who must be wondering what they have to do. It's a big career notch on the CV.
Fair comment. The tapping up is pretty corrosive though, by all accounts.

Fortunately, Gabby seems to me inured to it. Not sure about the younger fellas though.

I like Gabby, but he's nowhere near the England squad

Like to see Helenius and Tonev on now.

You've got your wish!
Lambert saw me waving at him with two fingers in the air!

I hope Tonev isn't going to be the new Holman

What? - the fact that I mentioned GA or that 'fornian Villa thinks he's nowhere near it?

I hope all of our players get selected for their country and do really well. It means they are doing well for us. As for the tapping up, it's like these lads don't have agents, so that kind of stuff will happen national team or not. I happen to think that this group is somewhat more mature and without being completely naive also owe it to Lambert and the club for giving them a chance and believing in them. I think they are a little different to some of the players that have come before. Though there is no expressing what I feel about Downing.

Can you wish for me to win the lottery please?
Monty I have granted your wish. Now don't forget to pick the right numbers.
