    Wasn't really. They got a goal on 74 mins, but we defended pretty well after that, they left it far too late to get a second.

    I'm always nervous when there's only one in it and at least 90 seconds to go. We've snatched defeat from the jaws of victory too many times through the years not to be!

    Well a QF! looking forward to the draw to see which big team we get knocked out by. Seriously though in QF/SF/F anything can happen!

    Shame that after the third goal everyone switched off and we coasted but a QF is a QF how ever you slice it! Buzzing!

    Quarter finals!!!! I’m genuinely stunned we’ve made it this far but credit where credit is due. We were appalling towards the end but **** it!! Tell me ma, me ma!

    Possibly it does, but just lets rejoice in the fact that we played well for 80 mins.

    We did but we almost ****ed ourselves over by changing from a system that was wreaking havoc to the abomination we saw for the last 30 mins of the game. Bruce was partially at fault by changing the system while some of the players switched off. I would’ve taken the result all day though

    We changed the system in the second half and that was the main issue.

    TBH City be the only team I wouldn't want, anyone else with a home draw wouldn't bother me.
