Morsy played 90 Tuesday! Just seems like an unnecessary risk to continually keep wheeling him out. He's a massive player for us and is even more important with the current injury crisis |  |

I'm all for taking cups seriously. on 16:40 - Nov 27 with 1903 views | Nthsuffolkblue | It depends a little on whether the opposition are so poor we could play a couple of youngsters (in which case is it any more of a challenge than a training match for them?). I get the point you are making but who would we have played in their places, and would that have been a wise thing to do? It is refreshing to take an FA Cup match seriously. |  |

Armin for davis imo. Or KVY left. Agbaje right. ( is this game any harder than a papa John's game when Agbaje played RB? Morsys position is harder due to limited CMs. But there must be an option in our squad. |  |

I'm all for taking cups seriously. on 16:48 - Nov 27 with 1838 views | ParisBlue | As a fanbase we we've not been happy with not taking thr cups seriously. It's good to see imo. Win the game, then make changes. And avoid the extra game of a replay. Paul Cook messed it up last year in drawing games at home we should have won, resulting in replays, and ultimately him losing his job. |  |

A replay would be the highest level Town have ever played at. |  | |  |

I'm all for taking cups seriously. on 16:53 - Nov 27 with 1767 views | pointofblue | I'm not sure who you would replace Morsy with? Davis I completely agree with - as I do Burns and Chaplin. None of those three should be in the starting XI. |  |

Do you mean in terms of altitude? |  |

We weren't happy when we were facing tough opposition though, such as Manchester United away, not Buxton at home |  |

Yes, though I could be wrong, - there may have been somewhere higher in a European game. It's hard to think of anyone off-hand. |  | |  |

St. Etiene, maybe? Would be interesting to find out, I love weird little stats like that. |  |

Does scoring a first team goal boost Chaplin's confidence, though? Does the message that a first team place has to be earnt rather than you can play in the cup regardless say something to players looking to come through? I can see both sides of this argument, to be honest. [Post edited 27 Nov 2022 17:39]
