    I'll be @ the Lane for this. Any preferred destinations for a quick pint or four before the match?

    We're at home, and it's not Man U, so we really should win. Time for us to get back on track and book another trip to Wembley. Our FA Cup performances have been toilet so far, we're due a confidence boost. Bolton would be better served concentrating on staying up.

    Adebayor is probably out, Lennon definitely is. Gallas may be back.

    huge match. failure here would be a major disappointment. full marks to harry for taking this seriously despite the precariousness of our league position. a must win for me.

    congrats ... i wish i could be there. the bell & hare or the bricklayers arms on the high road should do for some pre-match atmosphere. the former is just a couple blocks south of the stadium, and the latter is just a little further to the north.

    Would you guys rather win the FA cup or qualify for the Champions League by finishing third? Im sure you would rather have both but if you had to pick one which one would it be..I personally would rather have the trophy..

    CL. Has more long term potential to lift the club. FA cup, while great, is purely domestic.

    Yeah, I'd take 4th if we won the FA Cup. But CL qualification is the most important thing.

    Gallas and Nelson is like an Arsenal center back pairing. Something calamitous will happen.

    I hope Nelsen worked on his tackling since Stevenage.

    Cup. Champions League is fun, but we’re nowhere near being able to win it. As others have said 4th and the Cup would be a great season.

    Good response to the unfortunate goal conceded. Let's get ahead before half time.

    Champions League by far. Who cares if Spurs win it? That is a ton of money to go toward adding to the squad and keeping talent at WHL.

    Strong spell from Bolton. Why do we have to have this goon Winterburn on the commentary?

    from early speculation, it looks like Fabrice Muamba had some kind of heart trouble and collapsed on the pitch
