Derby out

[WTF11]

The thread is embarrassing

I suggest you save your embarrassment for the matchday thread, the performance makes anything on this thread pale into absolute insignificance.

The thread is something a 10 year old would put up
Tossing yourself off over chorley beating a bunch of kids is embarrassing

As usual, you decide why the thread was put up in the first place.

It was actually put up as a warning, obviously went unheeded by our supposed 1st team professionals and their supporting acts, that you don't take anything for granted in the FA cup, and I stand by the statement regarding what the Derby youngsters SHOULD have done, at least put up a performance, rather than play as though they had just met, (but then again, having watched Leeds v Crawley, it seems that pi55 poor performances are catching).

At least in Derbys case they had the excuse that they did field a whole load of their youth squad players, we can't even offer than as some kind of fig leaf.

As for "tossing yourself off", I'll leave that to you.

Well well well!!! Let's hope we don't provide a bigger surprise!.

Unfortunately your hopes were dashed

How could it be a warning when chorley where the favourites to win the game ??????

Not sure how you can say Chorley were the favourites. On league positions alone Derby were favourites - it was their choice to field the team they did and by doing so it provided a warning we didn’t fully heed.

Don’t always take WTF’s side but not sure what was wrong with what he said tbh.

Chorley where favs for the game 5/4 as the bookies knew they are playing a bunch of 18 year olds
I had a bet on chorley it was a good price
Derby where near 4/1

Says who? And what if they were, would you suggest that we should have regarded Crawley as favourites and the result might have been different?

How many times have we f00ked up against lower league opposition in this and other cup competitions?

Don't give a flying f00k what Derby do, or the team they field, only what we do, hence my last sentence in the first post (unless you hadn't taken the trouble to read it).
