    We don't have injuries piling up. Quite the opposite is the case, in fact. We need these cup games to keep the fringe players fit and sharp given we have a big squad where not everybody can play in the league games.

    You need to sack the muesli off and get a bacon sarnie down you mate.

    I appreciate that's your opinion and you're entitled to it, however if you really think we can win the cup I think you need more muesli mate

    I think the probability is that we won't win it, but that doesn't mean we don't have a chance. We rotated most of the team and we'll rotate them back for the next league game so what is the problem?

    Don't think so. I would expect to see us win more than once in 13 million attempts - - 3, maybe 4 times even

    That was the old odds of winning the lottery (well nearly 13,983,816 to 1 were the actual odds). The odds of winning it now are 45,057,474 to 1*
    The bookmakers would suggest we have a slightly better chance of winning the cup, but then what do they know #cough#Leicester#cough#

    * I knew an A-level in pure maths with Stats would come in handy one day.

    Wow, 75-1. Don't care if Forrest are out they are good odds. I'm going to have a tenner on that. You just never know.
