Why do I not care what happens today?

If we win,well done.If we lose,not bothered one bit.If we draw though,I will be pretty f**king annoyed.So what if it is the FA Cup? It's a cup game and it is pointless,literally.If we're not playing for points,we're not playing for s**t.We are not going to win the cup but we do still have a chance to finish in the top six,after which anything can happen.But with this squad as lightweight as it is,the cup is a major distraction.I would even say that if we were playing Ipswich.

The most important thing about today's game is not the final score,but the health of the squad.We simply can not afford to lose any more players at this stage of the season,especially playing in a sideshow to the real
drama that potentially lies ahead.

If everyone comes through unscathed,I'll be satisfied enough.If one of the younsters gets a chance and gives a good account of himself,that would be a bonus.

I have no doubt that I am in the minority,but I hope that those who go today do not start getting to the players if things don't look like they're going too well.Things are actually at a temporary stand still until we are playing for three precious points again next week.
