Nottingham's dirty secret
Let it be known that if we get to Wembley, I will be exercising my season ticket rights and taking an interest in the cup.
I feel exactly the same.

At the moment it feels more like another obstacle in our battle against survival than anything enjoyable.

Most fans are hoping for a lack of injuries more than a further tie that could mean more injuries.

Never in doubt.

And the best news is there's no replays in the next round!

Honestly, I'm not even that chuffed we went through. I think all things considered between us and the opposition, it's pathetic that we have been taken to a replay, extra time and with Bristol City, penalties to beat two teams in lower leagues than us AND only keep one clean sheet in any of the four games despite having pretty much having a first team out for every game.

We've got a really poor mentality when it comes to teams that we should be getting a result against. We've seen it in the Cup by struggling against Burnley, Bristol City and Blackpool. We've seen it in the league with our only victory against the teams down the bottom coming against Sheffield United.

That was actually shit and Bristol City should have beat us. As it goes though, we'll probably do alright against United.

If you don't know them personally I don't see how you could call Patrick arrogant, for example. He's not come across that way when I've seen him interviewed etc.

It must have been tricky for him being at the club which Nigel owned, then seeing him quit as chairman over the whole McClaren thing, then see him pull away his investment from the club and then die, whilst your career is still starting. Can't really blame him for leaving that really.
I have never met him but will 100% go on what Dan and Nick ( Who has moved to New Zealand a few years ago ) have told me about him.
This is an example of how much I trust these guys.

I was at Bilborough College with Dan doing my A Levels
We were out one night at Black Orchid and Nick came along too but he must have been 15 at the time so younger than us.

Anyway i've walked out and some very f***ing racist c-unts have surrounded me and started trying to hit me. One had a chain which must have been from the line when you are waiting to get in.
I've taken a couple of nasty hits.
Next thing I see is Dan and Nick dropping at least 2 maybe 3 of these f***ers with one punches.

As always cowards and bullies soon run off when confronted

WTF?

Full team for each game?

Assume you're ignoring AFCON and Taiwo missing games?

Some folk need to lighten up.

It's a pattern, look at our record against the teams in and around us.
If it's United or Chelsea or Newcastle, we can turn it on.
If it's Burnley or Blackpool, we look like we've never played together.

Thing is, we haven’t really had a settled side since we lifted the trophy at Wembley. On the rare times we’ve managed to get a lineup that goes on a bit of a run and starts to look like a unit - BAM - transfer window.

We do stay in games with Nuno though, even when we‘re shit we‘re generally only a goal behind.
