FA Cup 2015/16 Thread

[stokeriño]

Are FA Cup matches streamed live through iPlayer or do they get blocked and force you to watch it on the proper TV (as happens with some sport/films/etc. IIRC)?

[Lineker]

Think you can watch on iPlayer.

[stokeriño]

This only affects whether I have to get out of bed and go downstairs to watch the match later. Not the most pivotal thing in the world.

I think Myke or someone complained about the stream quality of the Reading game last night a page or two back, so I assume you can watch it on there.

How the hell is my illegal stream better than the iPlayer stream? This is annoying. 

It appears so.

Diego Costa is fit enough (or at least, irreplaceable enough) to start for Chelsea this afternoon, while Terry is fit enough to make the bench. Eden Hazard is not. Kenedy is retained at left-back. A midfield pairing of Mikel and Matic virtually assures Everton a couple of goals. Yippee.

Courtois, Azpilicueta, Cahill, Ivanovic, Kenedy, Mikel, Matic, Willian, Fabregas, Pedro, Costa.

Subs: Begovic, Baba, Terry, Loftus-Cheek, Oscar, Traore, Remy.

[Baddar]

Was gonna put a bit of money on Chelsea but figured Costa was out, so didn't bother. Ugh.

Everton make three changes from the side which lost 3-2 to West Ham, as most notably John Stones is dropped to the bench. In come Leighton Baines, Tom Cleverley and Gareth Barry. Chelsea make just one alteration from the team beaten by PSG in midweek. Eden Hazard misses out with a hip injury, Nemanja Matic comes in to add some Serbian steel.

Everton: Joel, Coleman, Funes Mori, Jagielka, Baines, Cleverley, Barry, Lennon, McCarthy, Barkley, Lukaku.
Subs: Howard, Stones, Niasse, Besic, Osman, Deulofeu, Kone.

Chelsea: Courtois; Azpilicueta, Cahill, Ivanovic, Kenedy, Mikel, Matic, Willian, Fabregas, Pedro, Diego Costa.
Subs: Begovic, Baba Rahman, Terry, Loftus-Cheek, Oscar, Traore, Remy.

Serbian pig iron, maybe.

Costa needs to fuck off.

Oh look, Peter Crouch dressed up like a woman, because why not.

There's a 4am bird if ever I've seen one.

[Lineker]

A horse on the pitch and a guy wearing nothing but budgie-smugglers and an Everton scarf. Okay...

[MDK]

And that is more exciting than this match

In the midst of all these niggling little fouls a game of football is trying to break out.

[Lineker]

Lukaku!

[MDK]

What a fucking goal

[stokeriño]

lol, any semblence of our defence.

[MDK]

The mountain that scores

[Lineker]

That man Lukaku strikes again. 2-0.

[stokeriño]

Oh good, Loic Remy to be the impact sub. He's certainly shown his drive and prowess in front of goal lately.  

But Lukaku scores a second so nevermind.
