Much as this was great to see, the fucking one player we didnt want to pick up an injury looked like he picked up a fucking injury. Potentially disastrous.
Anyone else shit themselves when they saw Mavro ambling up for that last pen?

As much as I don’t like the shoot out to decide games it does make for a great feeling when you win them, would have been gutted if we lost that!
Leeds next….This is our year can feel it in my water.

Andrews, their manager, not happy he didnt get a pen with the Fernandes toe touching their lad but bout time we got the VAR “luck”. All players now cheat and practice throwing themselves in the air with the touch of a feather and that was why imo they didnt get it. He made it too theatrical.
Well they got a fucking soft one anyway so that evens it out.

I'd fucking love to know whats been going on since the start of the year. They look so committed and together. Disasi is absolutely loving it. Mavropanos has proper stepped up, everyone was hiding and now theyre all leaders. A point on saturday would be massive, i really think we can do the double, staying up and a day out at wembley.
Agree, everyone playing with confidence but also look like they're really enjoying playing. Disasi was superb tonight, unlucky with his shot at the end, would have been a great winner. We should be going into the game on Saturday with real belief we can get something.

Stuck at the stop go signs behind a huge crowd but I don't care.
Great gme, what a night, up there with the shoot out wins v Everton st Upton Park and more recently City in the LC.
Been at all 3 and tonight was another special one.
Leeds st home in the quarters could have been worse.
Only downside was Jimmy looked injured.

Goddle is fucking gutted. Sounds distraught.
He's gonna cry in a minute!

Sounds like it! He might as well be wearing a Brentford shirt the classless cսnt,
Just your typical pathetic Spurs cսnt supporter who can't take seeing us doing well, especially as they go through a Club crisis.

Couldnt watch the pens as Im cursed like “Lucky Alf” from the Fast Show. Just as well because just seen them, 5 very good pens.
On the game overall. Biggest concern has to be Summerville’s injury. It was an odd game, Kelleher kept them in it and we survived that one glaring miss in normal time but generally restricted them to few chances. They seemed like the only winners after their equaliser but fair play to the team for attitude, resilience etc.
Nuno’s subs, a couple of them seemed to make us worse. Magassa had a mare after being decent in recent games and Tati was more like “Tatty” and we missed Pablo and his pressing and physical presence when he went off. Mayers defended really well because they were a threat down their right when Scarles was on.
Wilson did ok. I thought Diasasi was superb and he’s been the difference since coming in. A bit of a warrior and Thiago got nothing from him. Bowen gave everything and Soucek, who I have not been impressed with for a few seasons for his lack of pace and technique, has been coached and adapted his game and plays one or two touch football very effectively now.
All that mattered was getting thru and maintsining momentum. As mentioned, just the Summerville injury that might be the big downside. Got to hope its not a long layoff

Anyone saying we didn't need that game and shouldn't have risked Bowen, Jimmy etc need their heads testing. Call me old fashioned but I would love us to win the FA Cup.
FA cup winners and relegation, I could handle that. We ain't ever winning the PL so we should aim to win trophies.
Yes Man C, Scouse, Goons and Chelsea are the favourites but 1 of them.goes in the MC v LFC QF anyway.
Why can't we win it?
Agreed, I'd take an FA Cup win and relegation. Team will be ripped apart in the summer anyway.

Summerville running up and down the pitch in the warm down I'm pretty sure I just saw. Fingers crossed he's ok.

Jimmy had a tightening of the calf/cramp. Should be fine. Don't shoot the mesenger.

Incredible from Mavros. Firstly for having the bottle to step up and secondly for sticking it right in the top corner. Keeper thought being a defender he wouldn’t dare and just smash it down the middle.

Bowen fucking superb, proper captains performance. Didnt stop all night.
Reports of his demise have been greatly exaggerated. Or plain bollocks.
