No whatshisname for Stockport

A "knock" in training yesterday puts feller me lad from them out apparently.

Apparently there is a fish Pye on Stockport's bench.

Queing to get in lofthouse stand. Really hate being out of my comfort zone.

A bit of the usual, we have it all to do after going behind
0-1

Hold the front page

Doyle has scored
1-1

Hold it
Kachunga has scored
2-1

Some not very good defending there encouraging Stockport to have a go.

2-2 what's going on

Where's the tipex and those player lists, we might have to change who we keep and who we don't before New Year.

Tippy tappy cost the first thomason lazy pass to Santos.

Are we expecting a strange and crazy ending to this one, it could go any way or it could just fizzle out.

What's the logic behind short corners I'll never understand them.

Anybody fancy a replay ? No I thought not.

Well if that was a marker for where we are, I best get penning another letter to Father Christmas.

Thanks Benny, I'm off I need some sleep before breakfast.

Will sum up later couldn't get WiFi in lofthouse stand.

Well, we are still on our cup runs ! as predicted . I was at the match today and we must have had 80% possession. We have been saying it all season - we need to be more clinical in front of goal and eliminate mistakes at the back .
It cost us dear today but we played some great football again .

Highlights.

If we want to tip tap at the back it needs to be fast accurate and forward.

Thought a great cup tie at ht but 2nd half went flat. Both sides had half chances but couldn't finish. A worry Bolton looked shaky at the back and so many times had too many forward and it was 2 v 3 or 4 at times. Isgrove is doing his best but he's not a right back and the sooner he's back out on the right wing the better. Couldn't say Stockport didn't deserve a replay. The replay another fixture to play along with the next round of the efl trophy which will stretch the squad.

When looking at the new membership scheme this article on Safe Standing and the criteria for clubs is interesting.
Could Safe Standing and the membership scheme be linked ? It might make sense but you'd think we would have been told !

Hi Guys, my internet went down at 3:30 am on Sunday morning and was repaired and open for use at 1:45 pm today. not great as we had the FA cup game yesterday and I had no way of following what was happening.

Unfortunately, it was a draw which means we will be playing them again next week. I hope that we do better at their place.

Looking at the ratings for our defenders, it was not a great display from them, or have I got that wrong?

I hope for better against Crewe on Friday.

Replay a week Tuesday- unless selected for TV coverage…

Poor excuse, mind you the internet and broadband in UK is still lacking behind some third world countries after throwing millions at the problems. I'd have done it for half the price if they'd have asked.

I'd have thought we'd be ripe for the replay being televised. However, it would depend on what other games are also to be replayed.

Looking at it I can't see another game that looks as thrilling a prospect to televise. Though ITV or the BBC may indeed beg to differ.
