Not sure where our goals will come from. Very defensive.....

:?: :?: :?:

No Bloxham; King; Mellon or Mayor.

However good to see Stokes is playing.... :)

All above on the subs bench. Indication that they could be on their way and don't want to be injured... :?: :?: :?: :?:

Swansea using a few fringe players. Could we be going there to keep it tight and maybe get a draw? What could possibly go wrong?

looks like a 5-3-2, with Brown and Slew in a front two, and possibly Jake Taylor as playmaker.

An U18 player. Speaks volumes about the squad depth, or lack of.

Mayor to Blackburn??? Mellon to Ross County??? King??? Bloxham back to Shrewsbury???

Perhaps if we win today, then draw Man Utd at Old Trafford, we may get enough cash to be able to keep someone? Oh, hang on, that means Utd being able to beat Wigan and get to Round 4.

Perhaps if we win today, then draw Liverpool at Anfield...

No. Sorry Keith, but knowing our luck we will either win today and get drawn away at Maidstone, or lose and find that Swansea get drawn away at Liverpool in the next round.

Is it to prevent the 3 players from becoming cup tied in case they go to a club still in the competition ?

Great save by Smith to deny Patino. Patino is the Arsenal youngster on loan but supposedly being recalled to go on a multi million deal to Juventus.

Prob going to curse us but we have defended well and Swansea not bad many clear chances. However we are never going to score a goal.

Solid first half. Swansea probably 80% possession but only one long range shot that was just over and one decent save from Smith to show for it.

More of the same, then the departing lads on in the last 15 minutes to rip through Swansea! :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Camera angles showing no fans behind either goal. I can understand the away fans being in the main stand, but I'm surprised no more home fans attending.

Operation Frustration! Not being able to watch! Listening to commentary, but it's just not the same as watching...
