Barnsley are my new favourite team.

[Baddar]

FUCKING COME ON!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[The Kraig]

And finally, Chelsea are put out their misery.

I wonder if that would have happened with Mourinho.

[TMM]

Holy shit...fucking awesome game, and the right result. Barnsley defended like gods in this game, and Chelsea just didn't look up for it for a long while, but god that was great. I love seeing Man Utd and Chelsea crash and burn, but in the same day? Fantastic.

Probably would have. Just Mourinho would have come out, cracked a joke or two and it would be all okay.

"For the last ten minutes Barnsley just blocked, blocked, tackled, blocked, tackled. And except for a few minute spells in either half Chelsea didn't dominate."

... huh?

EDIT: oh it's Mick McCarthy nevermind, explains it all.

How on earth did Motty and Lawrenson manage to avoid saying "they think it's all over" when the fans invaded the pitch?

[IAceI]

How Alan Shearer scored so many goals despite knowing nothing about the sport is beyond me.

[Kwanzabot]

Fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.

Day of great results. Who else is in the Semis?

[britneyspearsisgod]

Whole different thing knowing how to score than how to play football. Most strikers fall for it. That is why midfielders make the best managers. Goalkeepers certainly do not.

Toulouse are a testament to that.

Praise goes to Barnsley. They played brilliantly and did everything they needed to. Chelsea really have got to get off their arses and do something in these games.

This FA Cup gets better and better.

[brenchill]

This is amazing. It really kicks Dave Kitson's comments about the FA Cup earlier in the season into touch. Come on Barnsley.

[Liam]

I was starting to get annoyed with some of the media coverage of the FA Cup, with (due to the massive amount of upsets) some people in the media were like 'ROFL Barnsley and teams like West Brom in the later rounds, SHIT CUP'......its been a great FA Cup this year, and I'd love to see a Football League side win it.

[Turbo Yannis]

No excuses, that was fucking awful.

[TheArsenal]

So this is the first FA Cup since....1995? that won't be won by a top four club.

[therockbox]

But surely when Chelsea won it in 97/2000 etc. they weren't technically a top four club?

[Sam]

Come on Cardiff! Heres for another "upset" today. Although the league form of Cardiff has been poor recently you have to say Boro have looked far from impressive in their cup run thus far so I have a lot of hope in Cardiff pulling it off today.
