The way i look at it is if we got automatic promotion we'd have missed out on the amazing day we had at Wembley,if you are going to get promoted doing it at Wembley is the best way.

Except we dont beat top half teams.

If Mowbrays all about 'performance based results' then he should be resigning after this performance

Sometimes you gotta laugh or you'll cry watching this team.

With Jota out for 6 to 8 weeks adding to Liverpools injury list,what are the odds on him being recalled in Jan?

There's a lot of love for the team from the early to mid 60s,it was well before my time so i was wondering what was missing from the team that would have had them challenging for the league ? Were they just a player or 2 from being up at the top or was there more to it?

For anybody interested.The official fifa world cup film of the 82 world cup is on iplayer for the next week, narrated by Sean Connery,96 mins long and well worth a watch.

It was also the world cup when Schumacher the Germany GK nearly decapitated a french player and didnt even get a booking.

I was 7 when the 82 world cup was on so a little young to remember much about it but the one thing i do remember is Tardelli's celebration after scoring in the final.

I'll call us a decent side when we start beating decent teams.

Another game against a top half team without a win,flat track bullies are all we are.

Depends on what kind of defence we can put out,might need to win something like 4-3

When i first started going back in 1988 there was sometimes the trigger trigger trigger chant from some braindead numpties when an opposition black player did something but thankfully that died out as the 90s came along.

I'd love to have seen Maradona and Pele play these days when theres more protection for players.they'd have made mincemeat of defenders who arent allowed to hack at them like they used to.

Would be nice for Marine to get a merseyside derby game against one of Everton or Liverpool in the next round.

We're a Championship club with a non league style commercial department and thats being harsh on the non league.

What made sky choose Barnsley at Birmingham? its not going to pull in the neutral viewers that.

Great celebrations on the terraces after Speedies goal,nothing better than the surge forward after a goal even though it was a bit dangerous if you weren't expecting it and was stood in the wrong place ?

Anybody from the Premier League at home in the 3rd round should mean money from a live BBC game plus hopefully by the time the game is played in Jan Chorley will be out of tier 3 and some fans will be allowed in to watch.

Barca are 11th in La Liga this season so in a way we are playing like Barcelona ?

At the end of the transfer window i was thinking finally we have a side to challenge for promotion,i forgot for a minute we had a terrible manager,i should have realised we have no chance of promotion with this manger in charge.Another season over by the end of Feb stuck in midtable is what we have to look forward too.then we'll get the Mowbray apologists saying oh we got 1 more point than last year,we are making progress.

All the talk about the ref is giving Mowbray another excuse after a listless performance once again.Stuck in midtable with a midtable manager.

We now know the reason why Norwich were ok loaning him out to another Championship team,he isnt very good.

Pulis has had a couple of weeks to drill in his boring football at Wednesday,i expect a 1-0 defeat for the Nobenders today

4 defeats in a row for Reading since we made them look like 1970 Brazil team.What's the betting Preston's terrible home form turns round when we play them on Tuesday.
