Those individuals were at fault for sure, but their errors were (imho) as a result of a tactical mistake putting them under pressure on the break against a team who were expert at this. I’m very much pro-LJ but I think he got it wrong that night and if it were me I’d be desperate for a rematch!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First half, after the sending off Wolves had played deep, but had looked very comfortable. LJ rolled the dice and put Flint up top, and we got the break through. At 1-0, against ten men, what possessed him to continue with that I have no idea. Right up there with his very worst mistakes in my view. Got a lot right, but not that one. Let's hope we can put it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 9 hours ago, ExiledAjax said: I'd be surprised if it is on TV. But depends...how many get picked? Chelsea v Man Utd obviously will be on. Man City probably get picked whoever they play. Wimbledon v Millwall could be good on TV. Donny v Palace is a big gap. TV will probably go for those 4 before they get to us. Add to that if Barnet get through (2-2) as I type then I'd have thought their game against Swansea would be of more interest than ours...I can't see us v Wolves or Shrewsbury being that big a draw. I don’t think the tv companies will want to risk Millwall somehow. I think the Prem team will be picked regardless of who they play, so we will be in with a chance with Wolves, but equally they will be hoping Shrewsbury will pull off a shock too. We didn’t feature in the last round of tv matches so I think we will be in with a chance. How many matches are covered anyway, last round they had loads. Is it less this time? If not they will probably put most of them on anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope we can put it right. You and many others. Had we had been 1-0 up at ht would he have put flinty up front? Of course not. I made the point at the recent fans forum that he should of bought flint back at 1-0 and in my opinion it cost us the game. LJ said that he was going for the second goal to kill then off and it’s easy with hindsight. I said it not hindsight as I and many others said it at the time.

Mr Popodopolous Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Let's hope it is Shrewsbury though Wolves are beatable too- they will be fielding a strong side if they win the replay though, so it'll be tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither us or Wolves are ‘big’ outside of our own areas and the Shrews even less so. Not much interest for a national audience and that’s what the TV companies want - decent viewing fugures. I guess there’s a slight possibility if the Shrews get past Wolves as there’d be a chance of an upset at AG but that's about the only reason we might get broadcast live.

Chance of an upset in both of those- Non League in Barnet's case makes it TV worthy and Accrington-Derby less so but still small club, went bankrupt 50 odd years ago Accrington No USP really with us v Shrewsbury or Wolves. Would say Shrewsbury-Wolves, bit of a derby, lower part of League 1 v top half PL may have been TV worthy more than Accrington-Derby and why put Palace-Tottenham on- a game where both play in PL season in, season out?

This round seven ties were televised I would suspect: Chelsea / Utd Wimbldon / Milwall Donny / Palace Pompey or QPR / Watford Boro or Newport / Man City If Barnet win I suspect their game against Swansea will be shown, if not and Wolves win replay probably be our game They can't wait for all the replays before deciding though, can they? At least, not waiting til then before fixing dates etc. They'll have to take a chance (assume Wolves and cheating Brentford win) and then make a last minute change to the match, but not the date, if something unexpected happens.
