Yeovil (H) - 3rd December 2005 - FA Cup Round 2

[Cheesebag]

OK, the big boys await - 1-0 Yeovil :cry:

[Cheesebag]

Only joking....New optimism at home, 2-0 :lol:

[ucow]

3-1 with Arsenal away in the third round!

[Duke]

Tight game 2-1 to the "supers"
3rd Round Aston Villa away we can do them :wink:

[Cheesebag]

Walsall away to Burton/Burscough in the 3rd :? :shock:

[Who moved the goalposts?]

So we've got no Murphy, Skora or Constable?

If that's the case then 1-1. Defeat in the replay.

[PerStener]

We are on a high at home, but maybe we will struggle abit without Skora and Murphy but we will turn out winners after a hard battle from the Saddlers players.

forgot the result... 2-1 to walsall.. Leitao and D Taylor.

[YGA Saddler]

If Skora and Murphy are out, then it will be a close game. With I guess Rene and Krissy Taylor coming in for them.

I hope we win to finally give the fans some excitement by getting a plum 3rd round draw.

I'll go for 1-0 Walsall.

[Stu]

Sorry, I can't buy this "It'll be a tough game" because Skora and Murphy may be out.

Has anyone seen the size and depth of our squad? If we reliant on two loan players to beat Yeovil, then god help us.

We should win this with or without Murphy and Skora.

[Geordiesaddler]

Took the words out of my mouth agin Stu. Yeovil are below us in the league for goodness sake, having recently lost their influential manager.
They've lost their last 4 league games on the bounce and needed a replay to get past Macclesfield in the last round!

I don't expect an easy game because they have a great tradition in the FA Cup and I'm sure will be fired up, but we have the same and should be equally fired up. Skora might play anyway, or either Taylor or Kinsella (if fit) could come in alongside Ozzy. And where does Constable come into the equation? If he was available he would be on the bench and probably just get on for the last 10 minutes. Hardly pivotal stuff.

Having realistic expectations is one thing, getting a grip is another.

[Duke]

Good posts from both Stu and Geordie
I precdicted a tight game in my forecast simply because theres a lot at stake for both clubs
money spinning 3rd tie and all that as it been confirmed that Skora cannot play ive heard nothing

[Magic Man Fan]

2-0 bish bash bosh and my choice of Arsenal, Everton or Newcastle away please.

True - and we are also without James Constable as he is cup-tied, having played in the earlier rounds of the F.A. Cup for Chippenham Town!

[SaigonSaddler]

I'll be extremely disappointed if we don't win. The whole season may rest on this one game.

I'll go for a close, hard fought 3-2 win :D

Come on you Saddlers!

[WFC_Rob]

2-0 with a trip to Anfield in the 3rd round. :D

[PerStener]

2-0 with a trip to Anfield in the 3rd round. :D

And then Man Utd or Arse(nal) away in 4th round :D

[WFC4Eva]

2-1 Walsall, either a game we can win at home or one of the big boys away in the 3rd round.

[Eli_B]

I'm hoping for a home win to the red Saddlers i.e. 2 (or maybe 3) - 1 against Yeovil. If we do beat them i'm hoping we get one of the big teams at home or away i.e. Liverpool (for personal reasons and what WFC_Rob just mentioned), Everton, Newcastle or the Gooners.

[Exile]

1-0 scrap, followed by Chelsea at Bescot so we can 'do a Donny' on them.

[tinned]

For years I've longed for a trip to Newcastle. Go up on the train, a few beers, sneak a surprise win .... okay I'll settle for the beers :roll:

[Percie]

Chelsea in the next round please.

[tinned]

Chelsea in the next round please.

Not away, please. I don't think my missus would let me re-mortgage the house just for a footie ticket.

Who said we wanted you to go? :P

[Stu]

I want the following if we beat Yeovil.

FAC3rd Rd - Everton A, which we'll win
FAC4th Rd - Newcastle A, as Fox takes out Bowyer the runt and Roper/Benno keep Shearer and Owen quiet in a 1-0 win.
FAC 5th Rd - Liverpool A, a 0-0 draw as Crouch's goalless run stretches to 30-odd matches
Replay - 1-0 at Bescot as Crouch's goalless run stretches yet again
FAC QF - Spurs A, Ledley King given the run around by Larossa in an inspired substitution. I can rip the pi$$ out of my Spurs supporting mate.
FAC SF - Neutral ground vs Chelsea, Lampard gets hammered by Skora who signs permanently in Jan. Fox kicks Essien off the park, Fryatt gives Terry the run-around and Drogba misses 25 chances as we fluke a 1-0 win.
Final - We beat Arsenal as Henry proclaims he wants to join us on a Bosman to join the Merson Revolution.

We get loads of money and I get to visit Premiership grounds I've not been to. Perfect. Oh, and we win the FA Cup.

[Magic Man Fan]

Exactly as I'd want it Stu! Maybe swap Newcastle and Everton round though. Those who haven't been to St James Park wouldn't understand. What a place.

[Rushall Saddler]

I'll say 2 - 1 Saddlers, with a trip to Highbury in it's last season please.

[Duke]

same score then villa away please :wink:

[derbysaddler]

WALSALL 2- 0 YEOVIL

Even with the absence of Teflon and Skora, I reckon we should have enough about us to get past the Glovers.

3rd round?

Southampton :shock:
but i'll settle for Newcastle / Crapston Villa. :D

[Guest]

love you

[derbysaddler]

I know.
