I’d expect one or two of our posters to be a little bit sheepish tonight but the chances are we won’t hear a peep out of them until we’ve been knocked out of the FA cup by playing a weakened side.

Only caught 2nd half as I have been helping my daughter move house. Looked decent and I think we could have actually scored more ! No complaints whatsoever ! B)
There is no way we could of kept that sort of effort up over 95 minutes had we put the first team out against Bradford.
Its all good and well saying players on their wages should be able to play 2 games a week and I am sure they can… Alot better than the posters who think they could on here too.
But at Tottenham away you need to give 110% which is exactly what we did today.
Getting knocked out by Bradford is it a shambles or just one more Robert Martinez masterstroke.

Come on Salford surely even you don’t believe the rubbish you’ve just written?? Yes a fantastic result today but we threw the Bradford game to concentrate on today???

Didn’t Ramis /Watson play 120 and another 90 today ??
Not sure we’re talking about the first 11 going out at Bradford, maybe a couple more than the one outfield player (Ramis) who played against West Ham.
Without wishing to go over old ground, one early goal (game over) and Bobby could have gone to town, substituting /blooding more youngsters (resting the ‘old, established’ for Saturday).
Might also have allowed the likes of Maloney, Kone etc. to get on the score sheet, instilling them with confidence /sharpness for today (fortunately, Watson took his chance)
Take a look at Swansea – same core have played against City last week, Liverpool in mid-week and Chelsea today – they haven’t done too badly.
Spurs were in the Capital cup also this week. Faced more difficult tie on paper than ours …

Do I think Martinez plotted to lose in the cup on purpose as part of a master plan to win today so he can turn around A team style with a cigar in his mouth and proclaim “I love it when a plan comes together”
No probably not.
It was as Filmoss would say a wooden spoon in the works.
None the less the end result is the same.
Fair enough Ramis and Watson played the other night but they were hardly run ragged by Bradfords attack were they….
If Kone had played he would have had plenty of running to do.
The team out against Bradford was good enough to win it so there was nothing devious on Roberto’s part.
Which is why I don’t agree with people laying the blame at his door.
My take on it is, Martinez used the Bradford game to give a bit of playing time to the fringe players and keep them happy – so more, no less.
I don’t think the first teamers were rested for the Spurs game in particular, and his focus of attention was on those that played in the Bradford game not those that didn’t.
Less first teamers started against Bradford because, on paper, less of them needed to, and Martinez saw it as a chance to get more fringe players on the pitch than in previous rounds.
So, as much as I’m a supporter of Martinez, I don’t think the today’s result is a masterstroke, and even had there been no game this weekend, I think you’d have seen the same starting eleven on Tuesday.
Obviously all just my opinion.
Humble Pie, Steve Marriot’s band after he left The Small Faces. Eric Clapton was on the radio the other day talking about when he met Steve Marriot, it was backstage on the set of Top Of The Pops 1967 and Jimmy Savile introduced cream to the small faces !
