Well done Bristol - a shit game that could have gone either way. Good luck for the season

Give your head a wobble mate - winning a cup tie in a competition we were never going to win or staying in the Prem worth 10’s millions?

This is shit - MGW crocked - Taiwo struggling - this isn’t worth it. Not really fussed if we lose.

And lettuce wrist McFlappy Turner does it again - what a shit keeper

Here’s Var to ruin the game - Origi scores.

Felipe and Origi have risen Lazarus like from the treatment table and Greggs respectively. We’ll be playing with 10 men as Origi lumbers about miles off the pace. Other than that Nuno has thrown a curveball and is playing 3 at the back for the first time. Turner Montial - Omobamidele- Niakhate - Felipe - Toff Kouyate - Danilo MGW Origi - Elanga

Oh I see what you did there - you and your Bristolian humour!

Cocky? Neither Awoniyi or Elanga can do 90m twice in a few days.

Here we are again - FA Cup night under the lights by the Trent. We’ve got players back now so the defence is stronger and Kouyate will come straight in to midfield alongside Danilo. Elanga is back as is Awoniyi so the frontline will be a lot quicker. I think we will field the strongest side and try to get it done by half time to rest Awoniyi and Elanga for the weekend. Hudson Odoi will probably be out after the studs down his Achilles vs Bournemouth. Turner Montial - Omobamidele - Murillo - Toffolo Kouyate - Danilo Williams - Gibbs White - Elanga Awoniyi

FFP cheats? No - what ever the outcome of process it doesn’t affect our spending in this season. It revolves around whether Johnson’s sale to Spurs was part of he 22/23 accounts or this years accounts

Just a brief update as the question is being asked: Willy Boly is Murillo’s usual CB partner and we are much more solid with him back. Mad Serge might be on the bench though Montial was pretty poor on Wed so he could start. Sangare was a £30m signing from PSV in the summer and meant to be transform our midfield but he’s struggled with the pace of the Prem so far. The replay could be Awoniyi’s first game back - thank **** - He’s deceptively quick and knocks CB’s about for fun. We’re trying to sign two wingers from Ajax and Dortmund and hopefully a competent GK - Could be Kasper Schmeichel. There could be 4 or 5 changes from Wednesday. Unfortunately Elanga will still be out. His speed is what unlocked Newcastle and Man U in recent games - I never though I’d see a player quicker then Bren Johnson play for us.

In theory perhaps but when it’s played at the pace of tonight you will get torn apart in the Prem. Your three at the back becomes 5 at the back because the wing backs get penned in. The two in midfield get bypassed and you can’t get out your own half. We tried playing exactly like that when we went up and were getting mullered 4 and 5 nil.

Yes away at Bournemouth Sunday 4th

It’s what happens when VAR isn’t around to ruin the game. Plenty of robust tackles but nothing dirty - the ref had a decent game. Hopefully we should have Awoniyi and Sangare back for the replay.

Decent cup tie - nil - nil a fair result. We were pretty poor though better second half. See you at the City Ground
