Silver Fox I'm also sure Kes hasn't included our win against QPR either

Otherwise, another great success

Yes I have. :lol:

Bradford have beaten Wigan, Arsenal and Villa.
Reading have beaten QPR, Everton and West Ham.


Thats still wrong though isn't Kes?

As far as I can see Reading have won twice in the league and once against Premier League opposition in the league cup. A total of 3 wins.

Bradford have beaten Wigan, Arsenal and Villa. 3 wins.

Dead in the water and factually incorrect. They elIminated Wigan and Arsenal from the competition as a result of penalty shoot-outs after drawn games.

At least on Betfair, you can bet on 'to get through to next round' and while you'll get worse odds, you bypass the drawing at 90 mins thing.

Ah, shifted them goalposts between a set of inverted commas, now.

Reading beat QPR, Everton and West Ham.

Bradford beat Villa, but "beat" Wigan and Arsenal.

:lol:

weybridgewanderer How did Villa beat us?


On the day they were better than us.
Yesterday Bradford were better than Villa at taking their chances.
I would love to see Bradford go through but if Villa create as many chances again in the second leg they may well convert them and are probably just favourites to go through.

I diasgree. On the day they were still pretty rubbish - it's just that on that day we were even worse than them.

To use the word "better" suggests that one of the teams was any good.

Only two replies and a "rattLOLed" to SIX posts about the same point would suggest you're the one working up a sweat. :lol:

If BCFC get through will it be the first time a 4th tier club has made it in Wembley in one of the two major Cups? I can't think of any others.

GO PARKY!

on reflection you might ask yourself "Was there really any point in making that post?"
Villa were good enough to win a game and score a goal ergo they were better than us.
