No one should ever go out for a few beers and not make it home. What a tragic, unnecessary waste of a young life.

jrgbfc

Some of you make me laugh. We’ve just beaten Leicester at home and Man UTD away and you want to complain about losing, what is these days considered by most, an insignificant cup match. The primary focus is to stay in this league. Let Norwich continue the draining cup run. We concentrate on surviva...

I've given up trying to predict our results this season. We seem to win a few on the bounce, then go and lose a few. I wouldn't be surprised if we took 8 or 9 points, but equally I wouldn't be surprised to see us struggle.

jrgbfc

Maybe everyone should just have exactly the same opinion about every subject, and just agree with each other all the time? That would make for an interesting message board.

jrgbfc

Tbf, beating Man U on Wednesday will go down as a memorable result in the clubs history, so being in the Premier league can be exciting. Yeah course it is. Just think that some of our fans get too obsessed with the financial side of things. What made you fall in love with football as a youngster? I...

just a thought staying in the premiership 120 million or winning the fa cup at tops a million you decide utc

Maybe some people think football should be about more than having a good balance sheet at the end of the year?

And maybe the club treat the cup with the same contempt as some so called fans do.

Maybe fans are voting with their feet because of all the half arsed cup performances we've had over the last few years?

When is his contract up?

Pretty sure it's up this summer. Probably for the best, he needs a fresh start somewhere else.

jrgbfc

As others have pointed out, we didn't really learn anything we didn't already know. Our squad is paper thin in some areas and a lot of our backup players aren't up to it.

jrgbfc

Leicester have still got a pretty strong side out. Some of our fans think we should play a team of kids, which I find pretty bizarre?

jrgbfc

From now until the end of the season we only have to play one game a week, which includes a winter break and an international break. No reason at all to make wholesale changes today or worry about players being tired. Minimal changes for me, let's keep the momentum going and have a good go at a prop...

jrgbfc

Everyone seemingly going for.Vydra. Just can't see it happening. Long coming on before him at Everton must have been a severe body blow and his situation has continued to fester since then. Hardly sticking my kneck out suggesting there is something very.much amiss there and the sooner it is sorted ...

I will stick with my original guess of 500/600 from Norwich and a total gate of around 7k

Be more than that on, 11 thousand I'd guess.

How long does he have left on his contract?

Has he signed a new one since being here?

Pretty sure he signed one earlier this season, around the same time as Barnes and Wood.

jrgbfc

Good stuff, hope there's a decent turn out, especially with McNeil likely to be playing.

jrgbfc

The race for the European places could be interesting this year. Unless Man United do something drastic this month I don't think they'll be good enough for top 7, and if Wolves progress in the Europa the amount of games could hinder their league form. Would be good to see some different teams up the...

jrgbfc

I can see there being wholesale changes. We have to balance a Cup run with giving minor injuries and niggles time to repair and also giving the squad members not playing game time. They might need it in the run in. In centre mid and upfront we haven't really got the option of making wholesale chang...

It's a disgrace that after 30 EPL goals and two and a half seasons we haven't got a song for him.

I'd say it's worse that a lot of our fans still think he's called Chris Woods

jrgbfc

2 or 3 changes tops, let's keep the momentum going. Plus we've got a 2 week break after the Arsenal game. A bit of a cup run would be great this year.

jrgbfc

I was thinking about that this morning and partcularly about Wood. How good would he be if he actually played in a team that created lots of chances and got a lot of balls into the box? Or would his game change because he would know that chances are not a a premium? Is he so sharp because he doesn'...

Goodridge on bench ahead of Gibson? Are we saving Gibson for a potential departure maybe?

Where's the best place for a pint and some food before the game please chaps?!

Not much choice up near the ground. Best option for food/drink is the city centre then jump on a tram.

jrgbfc

If they think he's the real deal it's a good investment. About the same as what we spent on Gibson, Vydra and Wells. Not saying it isn't a bit of a risk, plenty of promising youngsters go on to disappear without trace.

Catchy soundbites, Big Ben bongs, novelty 50p pieces and stamps won’t mean a jot. Things are about to get real.

Don't forget our brand new blue passports, you treacherous remoaner!

jrgbfc

Is he any better than Cork or Westwood? Surely we have to be looking to improve our starting XI. It's not like he's at an age where he will improve either.

Just been given the night off. How easy is it from OT to Chorlton Street before the last x43 at 11pm

Should be fine as long as you get out promptly and are able to walk at a decent pace.

Wouldn't it be nice to send Brighton down on the final day of the season?

With Jay Rod scoring the winner

Wonder how many Newcastle fans had set off home and missed their amazing comeback? You'd be gutted

Dean Smith has obviously seen something there to suggest he's worth persevering with.

Dean Henderson having a great game for Sheff U. Looks a future England keeper to me.

Not to mention on valentines weekend. ‘Eh up love. Don’t say romance is dead. But I’ve sorted valentines. We are off to a very busy port city where the most famous cruise liner in the world sailed from and only an hour or so from The beaches of France. We set off at 03:45 from Park view and get pic...

Fair play to anyone who travels down from Burnley. Think Southampton away for an early kickoff and on TV will be one for the absolute diehards!

On sale until 12 noon Wednesday.

Apologies, wrong info on the official site then. Just checked and it definitely says Tuesday!

Watford and Brighton wins. Keeps Bournemouth and Villa down there and reduces the chances of either of them being able to get up to 35+ points.

jrgbfc

Or Dyche thinks it’s better to bring back an in-form, match fit Wells as back-up, now that Barnes is injured? The sale theory is more likely though, I admit. We can’t afford to have multi-million £ assets out on loan. He’s fit, in form, time to cash in with 18m left on his contract. Hopefully, add ...

jrgbfc

Confirmed as gone to Newcastle on loan.

I think prefer might be more appropriate. Nothing exciting about struggling near the bottom of any league. Agree a good cup run can be exciting but there's just an inevitability about the FA Cup now and the likely candidates for, say the last 4. Add to that no replays after this round? and penaltie...

jrgbfc

Personally I'd find a good cup run far more exciting than a relegation battle, seems like I'm in the minority though.

Perfect opportunity for him to play on Saturday.

There’s been some really bizarre reactions to posts recently on here.

Yeah, it now appears suggesting players we could possibly attempt to sign isn't allowed either

I'd be amazed if Leicester let a promising youngster like Choudry go.

@Houseboy..... as a realist, where do you expect Burnley to be in the league?

About where we are now. Does that mean we should give up on ever trying to improve?

Tickets on sale until midday on Tuesday.

Great game...

jrgbfc

I can't see Villa or Bournemouth getting close to 40 points tbh. 36 or 37 could well be enough, as it is most years.

It’s weird, I was actually thinking to myself the other day when someone asked about the next superstar like Messi & Ronaldo. Has the standard of football dropped, surely not?
