We're aren't a bad away side, I can see us getting a goal! Their defenders haven't got the pace of our forwards!
We will have more of a chance of going through if we press them, at least in our defensive third of the pitch and I would hope in our half of the pitch. I doubt they will be as poor shooting-wise again on Monday. Because we didn't do a lot of pressing or chase the game last night I don't think we will suffer from the same 2nd half "jetlag" we did at Villa recently following the all out effort against Cardiff 4 days earlier.

Got my away tickets today so all up for the test on Monday you Rams...
This is the problem imo, mac. Is there enough left in the tank to produce such an effort again within just three days?
Quite why the matches have to be played so close together with a twelve day wait then for the final seems a reasonable question but it’s not going to change now so...hey ho.
Last night was one of those rare occasions when I’d have given virtually every player at least an 8/10 and it was good to see Forsyth and BJ back to something like their best.
Oddly the only player who seemed ‘off it’ last night was Vydra. Just didn’t seem able to make an impact. Depending on how the second leg goes I’d be inclined to revert to bringing him on for the last half hour on Monday.
Anyway...we’ll see...as long as we see the same effort and commitment on Monday I’ll be proud, if not necessarily happy.
P.S. DCFCA...proper supporters never bet against their own team however financially tempting.

I got my tickets this morning. Had to register on their website and only seats I could get were corporate at £190 each.
They have to score which could play in to our hands as we play well on the break. Front four has pace to burn but we need to chose our final ball better.
Be fair rA, Spunky was agreeing with me, that doesn't mean to say that I was agreeing with him!! Rifle is still locked and loaded here after his insensitive comments about my disability and late wife.....
