Re: FA Cup 2016/2017
Yeah, Sky booked us is for a few TV slots matched with the already absurd schedule leaving us with QPR on Wednesday and shortly after we have 3 away games in 7 days because of TV picks. We had pretty decent depth at the start of the season, it's faded away with sudden injuries to 3 of our 4 strikers and combined with the desire not to get the likes of Ritchie, Shelvey and co injured we fielded a youth/fringe team albeit with the Serbian brute leading the line.
We still should've beat Oxford but truth be told, they were hoping for a Draw or a Brighton draw, as long as one of us drew the result would have been a happy one and ruined Sky's TV picks and resolved this fixture mess.
