Must admit even I'm bored of it by now. Arguing over insufficient data, it's like trying to make a sandwich with no bread.

Would it be a proper sandwich, with two slices of bread, or one of those stodgy overthought club sandwiches with an unnecessary third slice in the middle that, sure, absorbs mayonnaise, but blunts the kick of your sriracha when you really need it?

How the fuck were you ever a Leaver?

I've repented long and hard.

As a person in the internet who has actually changed their mind (and admitted it) you are to be treasured. You’re not to blame.

Well, he kind of is, but I still treasure him.

Being wrong sometimes (or often) is just one of the risks in thinking for yourself.

My wife when she was young was fed tomato sauce or salad creme sandwiches when time were tight.

We used to get crisp sandwiches.

We weren't poor. My mom was just really fucking lazy.

Fair play to her and her local pride.

As a lifetime member of the Dean Smith appreciation society it pains me to say that his approach to the cups is starting to piss me off. We know what he will do in the third round of the FA cup already. It leaves too much to chance and doesn't represent a serious attempt to win honours. I don't care that everyone else does it, if anything that is even more reason to buck the trend.

I tend to agree - if we'd have gone full strength we'd have won last night.

We still had plenty of opportunities to have won last night. Archer being through twice first half, the Buendia chance, JPB chance and perhaps the biggest when El Ghazi shot instead of squaring to an unmarked Archer who was 6 yards out.

If they'd gone full strength we'd have lost. Ifs, buts, maybes.

What actually happened last night is irrelevant to some extent. We could have played the first eleven and lost. It's the general approach. As I say, it leaves too much to chance. We got to the cup final in 2020 of course but that involved games against two clubs who played even weaker teams than us.

Very true, but they were less likely to go full strength playing Man City at the weekend.
