Man United away - FA Cup - 17th March

[Venton]

True. That one hurt, but then I remembered that it’s only the FA cup , who really gives a **** in the scheme of things? Need to fix things for the league game and we’ll have the last laugh.

It absolutely matters when we play United, I really do give a **** in the scheme of things. This isn't just **** for us, it gives a boost to them.

[Tatterdemalion]

Come on lads, we could easily have won that before extra time and be laughing now. Admittedly, they could have as well, but we were more likely. It says little about the rest of our season bar the extra 30 mins and a few heads down for a while. Could be the reality check we need for the league and I'd much rather have that.

[Mark79]

Yet I clearly remember him breaking forward, 5 on 2 and he played a pathetic ball to Elliott and the move was over. Summed up the whole day.

Not denying he was poor when he came on, but us failing to win when we were in the ascendancy can't be pinned on a player who wasn't yet on the pitch.

[Kenneth]

Fewer games is the silver lining, especially as we have had injuries and look leggy.

[Venton]

They've already taken 2 points off us at home and now robbed this one. Anyone really confident it will be third time lucky? I remember when we were ****, trying to **** their season was the only thing that mattered. They'll be rightfully loving this.

Yes, and when were in our pomp and they were **** back in the day they usually pulled something out of the bag against us, it was never a gimmee. That's a really poor result for us and it hurts.

[BG1973]

Salah was ****ing rubbish.

I think we'll do well to win anything else. Players look mentally tired.

That's a knee jerk after a week pumping City and Sparta.

They’re not going to win it.

One more game before the end of the league season. And Coventry at that.

[Tatterdemalion]

And they get a bye in the next round. ****e.

And the humiliation of being beaten by their neighbours in front of the whole country.

[Exiled_red]

It always sucks to lose to them,and the nature of the defeat given the way the game went makes it worse. That said if we need to learn a lesson I would prefer to do it in this competition that in the league.

[BootRoom]

We shouldn't need to be "learning lessons" at this stage. We had close to our full team out, not a bunch of kids.

[Buzzo]

We looked tired.

It’s been an intense run. The break probably comes at a good time. The players can go away fit their countries, refocus and come back and go again.

[Mr Pink]

I don’t know why people are turning their nose up to the FA cup. Ya the league is soooo much bigger than anything else we’re in, but we’d come so far, I dont know why people are putting a positive spin on this.

[Mr Pink]

We shouldn't need to be "learning lessons" at this stage. We had close to our full team out, not a bunch of kids.

Yaaa exactly. People are over simplifying it if they think the fact we lost means we’ll be more likely to beat them in the league.

[Venton]

They’re not going to win it.

I don't think they will but that's not the point. They are generally boosted and more hopeful v
