We rode our luck but it’s about time luck came our way. Home tie next please, and Farke to play the strongest team available to him.

Maybe he's there as translator for Geordie into English :)
Excellent English, I was surprised too

Brum were the better team for much of that but lady luck smiled on us today.
You watch, Brum will probably get battered in their next league game.
On we go.
Lots of minutes for the squad players although we could have done without extra time with Villa on the horizon

Well, that wasn't much of a rest for our first-team regulars, thanks to their replacements except for Perri, Bornauw & Nmecha

If we can retain the luck from the last 2 games then a European spot and FA cup are possible.

Mansfield at home would be great! I worked in Mansfield as a postman the last few years before I moved to Canada...

Thank god for Ampadu, he settled us down when he came on!

I posted when I saw the line-up, that I was concerned there we had no established defensive midfielder in our starting XI

Just seen Nmecha's goal: that boy knows how to score goals!!! I wonder how good he'd be if he was given a run? Maybe once we're safe we can play him and DCL up front as a 2?
