    Good to advance to the next round, however we are still making the same silly mistakes.
    God help us if we lose next weekend at Colchester.

    I'd happily see us paper over the cracks by winning and drawing games.

    Yep you're right. We're making the silly mistake of progressing to the next round.

    Rather stupidly also (according to the BBC), we had more shots, more shots on target, more corners than them.

    Let's line the team up and throw carrots at them for such a woeful display.

    Surely the problem is that we've had loads of chances again and still we've not won. We've not been beaten by more than 1 goal for as long as I can remember.

    Yes we've made a couple of individual errors again, but for yjr chances we have, we've got to start taking them. I'd take conceding 2 goals every week if we scored 3.

    Be happy, 1 defeat in 4.

    It's the league that matters at this moment, and at this moment we are bottom.

    If your team gets to play at Wembley it is not pointless.

    Many of our players too may find that this is their only way to ever get a game at Wembley.

    Many fans would love to see us play at Wembley. It's a great day out.

    But maybe I'm missing something.

    So you're complaining that we didn't climb from the bottom of the league table when we played a cup match?

    I would rather us stay up than win the Piss pot trophy.

    Not ALL the forum, just a few choice individuals.

    Some people are so obsessed with dispensing with our head coach that it seems to offend them if we actually win a game.

    The facts are that we are improving, slowly but surely. Since Hammill arrived we have been a different side altogether. I would argue that we could and SHOULD have won every match that he has played in.

    Yes, we are still at the bottom but that is a temporary situation. These players are much better than that.

    Today was the JPT cup. Didn't think it needed explaining but these games don't count for league points. Best team to play Wigan this season according to some of their fans. Oh and btw we won.

    It's not a choice.
