Clearly didn’t give Bradford the respect they deserved and got punished for it.
Not embarrassing, but very very disappointing – at least we lost on pens rather than by a goal during normal/extra time.
:dry:It’s a pity he treats the cups with such contempt because with the luck of the draw there is a real chance of a final this year. Yet another embarrassment being knocked out by a club miles away from us in terms of leagues (as it has been every year since Bob has been in charge) Another reason other fans beat us to death with the embarrassment we have to endure sometimes. What is wrong with a cup run? why are they so resented? Our fringe players are awful, They wouldn’t make a good league 2 side as it is. Baffling.
I’m glad I stopped at home too – that Reading v Arsenal game was a cracker!
Still, at least half the crowd at the DW tonight went home happy.
:cheer: :lol:
Not posted for a while so I could give the team chance to get going. Still think we’ll be in relegation struggle but hoping it would be tempered by a little cup run. Alas nothing new tonight then, lowest ranked team left in and back page news for the wrong reasons again! !!! As for Bosselli. ……….

Baffling.Agree with that first point Yosser, but I think the comments from folks about this being an embarrassment are disrespectful to Bradford. Sounds like they worked v hard to create their chances via penalties at which point they were clearly the favourites.
The attitude towards the cups is strange. What would our approach have been if we were in Europe I wonder? We should be using every game to learn and build confidence. Tinkering is fine, but tonight’s lower strength line-up wasn’t essential.
I also wonder whether the next time we’ll now see Mauro start is the FA Cup 3rd round?
I cant understand why on a school holiday the family stand was closed ! The chances were that Bradford would have held out for penalties having won their last 6 shoot outs. On winning the toss over which end to take the penalties there was no choice really but to choose the closed end ! I can imagine what piss taking will emerge from both the giant killing and the empty stand !! Club cock up IMO !
Just seen some highlights and it should have been wrapped up at the death !! The same player who missed the last minute sitter then put the final nail in the proverbial coffin with a very very tame/shit pen !!
