Terrible result for us we just cannot get a break at all.
If it was a terrible result for the Albion, how do you think Stoke are reacting?

Only West Brom look like they might be falling away. The problem is, we don't want it to go down to the last three games...
My god we need the Amex rocking against Swansea

This - so long as we don't rest too many first teamers who don't need resting against Coventry - we want to actually get to that Cup Final. Any sort of complacency against Coventry ("Oh, we don't need him, or him, or him, etc.") and we'll find ourselves slipping on a banana skin, out of the Cup, momentum lost, and then we'll get turned over by in-form Swansea.First of 3 Cup Finals.
- Swansea
- Huddersfield
- THE FA Cup Final
Let's hope it is Swansea who mess up at Massive in the cup, not us against Coventry.This - so long as we don't rest too many first teamers who don't need resting against Coventry - we want to actually get to that Cup Final.

I think the season is very delicately poised now, and momentum is everything. We seem to be getting some at the moment, after the shit-storm of criticism after the Southampton and West Brom. matches (which, in retrospect, seems to have been justified) and we daren't lose it. I really think that if we let Coventry turn us over, we would then go on to lose to Swansea. In its way, the Coventry game is, for me, as much a must win game as any.
(Oh, and massive at Wembley would be fine; it's about time we actually had a match there that we might win!)
I don't think Bournemouth are out of trouble yet, so I don't think them losing today is necessarily a terrible result. They have to play a few of the top teams and a few of the struggling teams. If they don't get results v Tottenham, Man U, Liverpool, they will be trying harder to take points off the likes of West Brom, Swansea, Southampton, Newcastle to guarantee their own survival, which would obviously be good for us.
Have to say, ok, Newcastle are 0-0 right now, but the mismanagement of that club over the years is astounding. They should be pushing top six every year. Huge following, only club in the city, plenty of money slushing about, why are they so shit?
