When we drew Luton, a few on here said we could rest our entire squad
So it was a great draw.
Hoots did that. He clearly thought the reserves would be enough to progress and then brought on Holt, Wes and Pilks at the end to try and grab the tie.
Previously, i've agreed, but don't think this is a case of not trying to win the cup. Had we progressed and drawn a Premier League team in the next round (or even a Champs one), i'm sure the team would have been strong.
