Re: FA Cup 12/13
Chelsea united and arsenal all got decent premier league opponents this year.
I think the last three season in a row Chelsea have drawn a Championship team at home.
I wonder if the Saints will put out a decent team, or just rotate some of the players.

Thanks Bomber would nice to see my Owls turn the season around. Relgation to "long ball" league one would be tough after all the hard work to get out.

Re: FA Cup 12/13
That's funny, I was under the impression you thought the whole of England is stuck in the dark ages playing long ball football with no decent coaches or players. Now it's everything below the championship.ozzie owl wrote:Bomber wrote:ozzie owl wrote:Hopefully my Owls get manage to get past the MK Dons, need a positve result to cheer us supporters up.

More like I find it funny because he won't lump "his" team in with his critique, after numerous occasions he has stated otherwise.
I've actually been to League 1 games, I don't think I will be pissed off by a comment from someone that hasn't.

Are you suggesting he's a hypocritical moaner?
I think that's a bit harsh. Next you'll be suggesting that he supports a different team every week.

Re: FA Cup 12/13
Not quite that harsh.
Maybe Wednesday's Barca-esque style of play will see them go straight back up to the short ball league, maybe it won't. Maybe league 2 will be the long ball league next year.

Re: FA Cup 12/13
If a team is playing a particular style and it's not working, why wouldn't they change. I'm more intrigued as to how he's even getting to watch the style they play in. I've only managed to see 2 Millwall games this season on tv.
How man sheff wed games have they shown? How many league one games have they shown?
