Just the way the EFL like it.

Did you not see Hyam calmly loft the ball over the Leicester attacker (I don't think it was Vardy) to Carter in the second half? Champagne football.

I was playing football, (set off at half time) so I've only just caught up on the match on iPlayer. As I thought, we ran out of steam on 60 minutes - you can only play that high press for so long. I wish we had players to bring on for Gallagher and Szmodics as they both ran their blood to water - alas maybe that's a job for the summer. Magnificent result though - let's hope the injuries to JRC and Gallagher aren't significant and we can carry this form into Saturday.

I'm sure he's sick of Vale too at this point - we were really stuffed when Gallagher indicated he needed to be subbed.

He probably sees that there's not another (fit) striker on the books so he has to play someone. He'll be sold in the summer I reckon - and I actually don't think it's that he doesn't run / sprint, it's just that he's got no acceleration so he's second to everything.

You can't press like this with Dack in the side.

Are they singing "Jamie Vardy, he's won more than you?"

I tell you what, if we had a striker we'd be ahead here.

We're going to run out of steam on 60 minutes btw - we're working our socks off here.

Ref's bottled that - Gallagher was just fouled through on goal.

How has Morton wormed his way back into the starting XI?!

I'll be brutally honest, I've clearly subconsciously refused to commit any of the last 12 years to memory because I've no idea who Chris Taylor is, or that Millwall game. I barely remember who Appleton is.

You need to prepare: "Get in!" and "F' VAR".

What are they going to do, deduct points? Refuse to kick off until we do so?

Nothing has actually been proven. I've also hated the heavy-handed approach the club has taken with fans after the fact. We've very much been tarred.

Chelsea's owners are in another stratosphere of wealth.

I don't know anyone that sits near me in the Jack Walker that will accept absolute shit. They will accept that Burnley have spent £40m+ in two transfer windows on promotion - you have to be realistic. Football really is the epitome of money talks.

Ah yes, one can never see enough of City on the television.

This is surely the main match of the day, right? Two ex-Premier League winners - the story writes itself.

I heard that on the radio this afternoon - there are only 3 domestic trophies up for grabs every season. Yes the League Cup is the lesser of the three, mainly due to the prize money associated with it, but it's still a great accomplishment to win it. With four or five teams absolutely dominating English football at the moment every trophy should be celebrated 'cos they gobble most of them up.

It doesn't help that Phillips, Garrett and A. Wharton are away with the First XI.

Well if our £20m Chilean striker had slotted away that sitter or a competent ref had given a penalty for the foul on Pickering we would have won. Wigan didn't lay a glove on us.

The problem they're going to have is that they've spent £40m+ on an entire squad of top level Championship players that are all going to need replacing if they want to survive in the Premier League.

What are we, 8 unbeaten and just picked up 9 points from 9 points in the league and this is the first thing you can think about on a Sunday morning? How the other half lives, I guess.

For the record, both Hyam and Carter are better than Lenihan. Rothwell got on against City today during Bournemouth's spanking, so he'll be happy...
