Unbelievable penalties as well. I was convinced Cooper and Brown would fluff their lines.
Told my missus we were out when I saw Browny walking up :lol:

There’s about a 0.0001% chance of a giant killing but I take your point

All of our players looked pretty confident when taking their penalties. The guy who missed for Derby looked like he was about to pass out and you could tell didn’t fancy it. Poor bugger.

ST holders priority. Thise who went tonight 2nd priority. According to the email earlier.

Out of order for people who went to the first 2 rounds but missed this one.

Not that I care but Keeley was so far off his line for every pen. Great nuts from the guys to convert 6 out of 6 with what was at stake.
Though we looked better after Brown and Oberio came on but found Derby very weird. They managed to hold us at arms length for the most part and you could tell they were the superior team but we had most of the best chances and definitely seemed to want it more.
But what do I know, I’m drunk on a cloud of happiness and several strong drinks.

Keeley must love life at Orient
He should be asking Spurs if he can sign for Orient, not Orient asking Spurs to sign him.

He would have seen how they treated Austin one game only after being at club for nearly 10 years and then they go sign another goalkeeper straight after his debut.

They fell away when they took off their two very decent wide men. No idea why they did but not complaining.

Yeah, they never seemed to get at us really. Was surprised how bad Adams was when he came on, just fouling and not getting on the ball.

Is he the little Rotherham forward? Decent lower league player in his time if so.

Adams never has been a playmaker, he’s just a workhorse.
