No Morton! Having to constantly swap between Vale and Gallagher shows how desperate we are for a striker though.

He jointed Twitter today and has 0 followers, so not very. I would be surprised if he joins us though.

You've won every home game since god knows when and all that stands between you and the QFs are two League One teams 'ont Turf'. You'll be automatically promoted at a canter, so I'm sure a winner like Kompany will see this draw as a massive opportunity.

As somebody who can't make the derby now it's on the Sunday, I was actually happy (felt wrong though) they have a winnable fifth round tie should they get through. That was until I saw Sharpe acknowledge the possibility that they could keep the derby on the Sunday and play the FA Cup QF midweek instead, surely not.....

Our wage bill must be a lot smaller now than it was say two or three years ago - we had players like Holtby, Downing, Evans, Johnson, Armstrong, Lenihan, Mulgrew then that would have all been on a decent wage. But they've in the main been replaced by players like Buckley, Carter, the two Whartons, Brereton etc stepping up plus a couple of penny pinching loans each season. How small can the wage bill actually get???

If we played Brighton at home they'd beat us around 5-1 like they did Middlesbrough and it'd be a reminder of a) what we were, they're similar to us 2005-2008 and b) how far we've fallen. Bit like when West Ham hammered us at home a few years ago. Not for me thanks.

Have thought before actually that, even at his age, JDT would be better playing himself upfront over Hirst, Vale and lately Gallagher.

What after a much improved 20/21, playing a few games for Chile and scoring at the Copa America in summer 21, and right after losing Armstrong and Harvey Elliott? Absolutely no chance!!

Gallagher’s contract was discussed for a day or two on here then forgotten about. And he’s not exactly a fans favourite. The way some people are going on you’d think there’d have been riots outside Ewood if Brereton had been given a new deal two years ago (when, as is often forgotten for some reason, he was in the middle of a much improved season and the reason he was called up for Chile in the first place - a new deal for him two years ago would have been positively received, not that it should matter of course as has been pointed out).

What a bloody lovely footballer. The one for Cole v Fulham is unreal yep (love all outside of the boot through balls so also like the first v Wolves) but the one for Jansen at Ipswich.....absolutely perfectly weighted. Hero.

It is yep, I'm a weekly watcher. James Richardson presenting the Sunday night games 👍

20% of the profit made on his next transfer will be owed to us, according to FM.

We did win four in a row in October, but that run followed the shocker at Wigan which, albeit to a lesser extent, is a result people haven't really recovered from along with the Burnley/Preston games (especially when you see how bad Wigan are....). And then after the four wins it was a terrible performance at Coventry, so you're right about stinking defeats following wins. Lambert after his initial honeymoon I'd say, sort of December 2015/January 2016. Terrible. Albeit that was only a couple of months and after that I did think we'd started to play some decent stuff until he decided he couldn't be assed anymore.

If he identified the likes of Hirst, Mola and Szmodics in summer he also needs to take a look at himself.

Don’t think there is one during this season - January 2024 looks like the next one?

Oh Chaddy 🤦‍♂️ if they were daft enough to sack a manager who had us in mid-table PL and reaching cup semi finals, in what world were they going to appoint somebody better?

He is yep. He’s posted quite a few Instagram stories from Old Trafford before when he’s gone to watch.

Presumably these people would have been gutted had England and Raheem Sterling won the Euro’s. Everyone does indeed do it, it’s 2022 and there are fewer differences than ever between footballing cultures.

Adam Wharton over Morton any day.

That forum is such a good read after they lose, and that's after winning three of their last four before last night. If they ever go on a run of 2 wins in 17 it'd be amazing.

He surely can't think that, he spent most of his playing career at the very highest level (including in England albeit briefly). He must know, especially by now, what the Championship is about. But, if he didn't learn from Wigan, Cardiff etc earlier in the season, and he clearly didn't learn from the Dingles disgrace.....will it be any different after today? If we carry on playing in this way, we'll plummet down the table.

Neymar not taking a penalty for Brazil in a WC knockout game is madness. Yes, presumably he was fifth, but always a good chance it doesn’t get that far - mad. Well done Croatia!

What a superb goal.

I think you're the only poster that has said that both France will hammer us and Senegal will breeze past us (!).

Will become! He's already an unbelievable footballer Chaddy, in fact he's probably the best player in the world now Messi has slowed down a little (although it was a joy to watch him last night).
