Don't agree on early exit. If we are to stay up in EPL then we need to hit the pitch against Barnsley with best team and total attack mindset to get some form in that vein. No matter what team lineup starts they need to see if they can play to new strategy that hundreds have been baying for. The result is otherwise what it always is, and no one is the wiser about the team's potential fortunes. These are the 'questions that need to be asked'. I want to get absolutely hammering drunk on stats SD, stats that include shots at goal, on goal, possession percentages above 20, and corner kick numbers higher than 2. I've had a gutful of the excuses.

How many of you agree with the idea that any sort of good Cup run is a distraction from the more important League ?.
Thats not always the case is it and a good promotion or successful relegation escape season can happen alongside a Cup run, as we've also found in the past.
I don't believe for one minute that the ginger growler Dyche (if hes still there by then) will play a weaker team and not take the tie seriously.
