Give me the FA Cup + relegation hand in hand rather than survival and no FA Cup. I just want to see my team with the FA Cup in my lifetime.
anyone who would give up there premier league status to win a cup is a complete nob  grow a brain for fucks sake.

Ream's back in the USA, finishing up his business over there, packing a 2nd suitcase, etc., so don't expect him at the game this weekend (according to Bolton News).

We'll smash them.

We are well and truly on the ascendancy.

3-1 Eagles, Ngog, NRC.

So, a 2-1 win. We are through to the 5th round and by the sounds of it Darren Prately did something to suggest that he is in fact a footballer.

Not the greatest display but a win is a win. I think we'll see a very different Swansea when they come here in the league because only 1 player started today who started in their last game.

They were still a threat though and can count themselves unfortunate not to have got a replay. If it hadn't been for their goalkeeper fumbling the ball straight to the feet of Eagles, we probably wouldn't have gone on to win the game. I don't know if he was their goalie last season but if he was, I have no idea how they got promoted!

That said, with the number of chances Eagles and Ngog had in the first half, we should have coasted to victory really.

Pratley had his best game for us but he still looked a long way from what we expected at the start of the season. He was unlucky with a header that hit the bar but he should have scored another in the second half.

We looked very vulnerable to pace at the back and that was the story with their goal. Wheater was too slow to react and Moore dinked it over Bogdan.

They hit the post twice too so while today was a good win, I'd be hoping for a much improved display against Arsenal in the week.

No he wasn't, last season they had a keeper called De Vries, who's now at Wolves.

It was a terrible 1st half performance today, but we did perk up in the 2nd. We just about deserved the win. It might not have been a brilliant performance, but a win's a win (obviously).

It wasn't terrible at all, just some poor finishing. We created lots of chances and forced a ridiculous 17 corners.

Need to see a replay but it looked a clear penalty to me in injury time.

Swansea were not interested, left their best players - Vorm, Graham, Allen, Dyer - out of the team and kept playing themselves into trouble with short goalkicks.

Could easily have been 4-1 today, it was a one-sided game.

I thought we played alright today. Miles better than some of the performances a few weeks ago. Joe Riley had a good game and got forward well a few times, Eagles did ok but probably should've scored more than one and Ngog did alright but should've done a lot better with a couple efforts. Happy with the 2-1 win though.

Totally agree, I have no idea what Bob was watching, if anything we was far the better side in the first half and the goal they scored was totally against the run of play.  Second half was far more even but we had our better chances in that half.

I just don't get how yesterday wasnt a full house, especially with cheap tickets on offer, I love the FA Cup and I cannot believe how people would not want to inspire us to another Wembley visit.  No doubt they will all come out of the woodwork for that visit should it come mind.

Job done. I don't expect much in the way of fireworks from us in front of a sparse crowd most of which wouldn't be overly bothered about going out because we have far more important issues in the league. But we were professional, rode our luck admittedly at times but we could have been out of sight well before they scored.

They did, but in a nice change from the norm we didn't just give up and roll over. We went right up the other end and got the goal back, and we did what we had to do to get through. United are out, City are out. There's plenty other options that can scare us, but as Coyle said in his post-match interview we just want a home tie. Winning breeds winning, bring on the Arsenal. (in the league, not the 5th Round draw!)

I'm happy. Sounds like we could have had a few goals. Fortunately, our missed chances didn't come back to haunt us and it's very nice to see, that we are coming back from a goal down in games to get the win, more often than we used to.

Just hope we avoid a big team!

Well, I have to disagree with us being the best team in the first half, we missed numerous chances and if anything, I think our goal came against the run of play. Yes, we were knocking on the door, but so were they and they were the  one who looked more likely to put the ball in the net. And that was against what was pretty much their reserve team! That's how it looked to me anyway. You may have seen it differently, but remember I do make a wicked pot of decaf!

I just don't get how yesterday wasnt a full house, especially with cheap tickets on offer, I love the FA Cup and I cannot believe how people would not want to inspire us to another Wembley visit.  No doubt they will all come out of the woodwork for that visit should it come mind.

But this I agree with completely. I too love the FA cup, and can't believe how few people were there yesterday. There were only 2,100 more there than at the Macclesfield match, and considering that that was on a Tuesday at about 8 o'clock against a league 2 team, and yesterday we played a premier league team on a Saturday at 3 o'clock, it's pretty disgraceful. As you say, if we get to Wembly, they'll be all over it, yet they can't be bothered going to the Reebok and only having to pay £15. Crazy.

I thought we were the better team all game. We should've been 2 or 3 up before they scored. It was a well deserved win yesterday.
