It’s the difference between being a pant wetter or not.

12 minutes away from being knocked out of a cup and the only sub we've made is to bring on Elmo.

Crazy, as far as i'm concerned his duty is to go out and win every game regardless, with maximum effort, to believe he as some grandiose plan to rest players from competition in order to save them for the ultimate goal of promotion is just tosh, it's not going to happen, getting way above his station, win every game, that's it.

Burton should have scored a second.

[Malandro]

It's cos he's aex-blose ain't it.

I wouldn't mind but they all get a rest with the international break after Saturday, well most of them do.

[PaulWinch again]

This sounds absolutely disgraceful.

Precisely.

He was moaning about the ridiculous schedule on Saturday.  A schedule that hasn’t changed for about ten years at this level.

[PeterWithesShin]

5 mins to go and still just the 1 sub. It's a genius tactic by Bruce to avoid extra time...

I want to hide away too.

I'll concentrate on the allotment.

Oh, no, I'm going to Sheffield on Saturday.

[andyh]

I hope Thierry is brushing up on his brummie.

[PeterWithesShin]

Attempt missed. Ahmed El Mohamady (Aston Villa) header from the centre of the box misses to the left.

There is no extra time is there? Straight to pens I believe. Provided it’s a draw obviously.
