FA Cup 2015/16 Thread

But nobody praised his team for our excellent defensive performance against the mighty Sheffield United.

[Adam]

We were superb today, what a great game to watch in a brilliant atmosphere. Top class finish for Stoke's winner, but we had some really good chances to force a replay near the end.  Nevermind, everyone went home proud of the team today.

Also, I've seen the video of some Villa fans shouting abuse at the team getting on the bus, and I've seen praise for them on Twitter and I just don't get it, how does shouting "you fucking wanker/prick" over and over again at players deserve praise?  I get the anger and frustration of the fans, but that isn't the way to go about it. It's embarrassing quite frankly.

Lawro just said "Penis" instead of "Pienaar" on Match of the Day

I hope that keeps Van Gaal in his job for the rest of the month at least.

Lovely football for the opener, Oxford have been good though.

Here's a groundsman (or volunteer, I suppose) working on the Eastleigh pitch pre-match yesterday: 

Because why not.

Dive, and Kyle Bartley continues to steal a living.

Even now RLC, Traore and Kenedy can't get a start. For fuck's sake.

And that answers the question as to the person who will be racked at PTTS Lineker....

Fightback potentially on. There was a few minutes Swansea lost the plot but that might focus them again.
