4-0! Morten Gamst Pedersen just scored a great goal from 18 yards out.

[TheArsenal]

Ouch for Luton. Could have been so many more...

[Thrilla]

Iain Dowie just said he fancies us to take the cup. That's us out next round then.

[Liam]

3-0, easy home victory. Can't ask for much more.

Would love to see us pick up Montella at the end of the season, he looks like he is finally the sort of player who can bang in some goals for us, since McBride and Radzinski aren't exactly goal-scoring superstars (though McBride can at times).

2-0 loss to Plymouth, we were by far the superior team in the first half, but fair play to them they looked the stronger in the second. Probably 3 minutes before the Scott Sinclair goal we had what would have been the equalizer ruled out for offsides. Oh well, nice memorable run but our slack will now have to be picked up by Bristol City.

Did anyone see Nugent's goal for Preston? Brilliant stuff.

[Farmer Reil]

*deep breath* Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Eighty second fucking minute, after going down to ten men 12 minutes earlier. JE SUIS NON IMPRESSED.

Not only that, but we fucking dominated them. We just couldn't score. Gah. Not bad considering they're top of the Championship, but still... gutted

Even more gutting is that City are all over the headlines because they drew with 'boro :@

At least Plymouth got through, and Man United had to score four perfectly good goals to win 2-1. So it's all good.

McCarthy just needs two more goals and I win a crate of beer.

Gotta love taking money off Liverpool fans. Blackburn were great today, no-one played badly. Okay, Luton were hardly much cop but we still had to go there and win it after a morale killing loss to Watford and two of our best players ruled out for the season.

[Lord Nibbler]

Class goal by Wayne Rooney against Pompey.

[9 to 5]

And oh christ yeah, Samba looks like a really big, pissed off bouncer. I can see why Hughes went for him.

[Farmer Reil]

After seeing MotD, I have to add many more "o"'s to my previous "Boooo!".

:@:@:@:@:@

There was nothing wrong with Sandell's goal. At all.

And there was no fucking way Lescott should've been shown a straight red. Yeah, it was a bit late, but when you compare that with Upson's challenge on Kitson in the Brum game (for which he was only booked), it's a fucking farce.

Gah.

But yeah, on the plus side, Rooney's goal was class, and so was Scott Sinclairs for Plymouth, and Murray's for City, and Preston Bloke's.

At least the world got to hear 5,000 Gasheads drowning out 20,000 Rams with a chorus of 'Goodnight Irene' on Final Score though

As opposed to Ashton Gate, where as usual it was pretty much silent.

Larsson's was also quality, unfairly disallowed.

I missed Sinclair's, but I heard it was good.

Chelsea/Forest has been the most boring 45 minutes of football possible, despite there being 3 goals.

What have Forest done to Agogo? He used to be awesome. Now he's merely "Forest's best player", which isn't saying much according to recent evidence Sure, it's Chelsea, but for fuck's sake...

[therockbox]

I love Andy Gray, possibly the biggest hypocrite in football. In one breath he condemns diving, timewasting etc., but then praises a player when he deliberately fouls someone to prevent a break.

[Buford Ripley]

Good second half from Arsenal vs Bolton.

It's a shame we didn't get the win from all our chances but Bolton played well and Jaaskelainen(sp?) made some good saves.

[jakeyd2006]

i'm glad they got a draw out of it because Bolton will whup ass in the replay at the Reebok Stadium.

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Well done Bolton, finish the job at the Reebok and we'll try and get a miracle at the Emirates. (Y)

[ChrisSteeleAteMyHamster]

Well no uber games in that draw. Fulham away defnitely could be worse.

Chelsea have got an easy draw at home. I was hoping for two of Arsenal/Bolton, Man U and Chelsea to be playing eachother...

[Liam]

Tottenham at home? EASY, EASY, EASY

Coulda been a whole lot worse.

[Guest RINGY SAID DANCE]

So Israel vs. America then? >_>
