Today’s other games

[Hibernia&Alba]

All my in-laws are Spurs fans and I have learnt, like Hibs, never put Tottenham on your coupon.

They like us, always have this type of game just waiting up their sleeve. It is also why it will be a long time before they ever win the Premier League.

J

Yes, they always seem to be the bridesmaid. A win today would have them as serious contenders, but that's a blow.

In Seminyak, Bali, heard a commotion in a bar last night so went in to have a look. There was 4-5 Huns celebrating their win with the Billy Boys etc, embarrassing to say the least, turned round and left.

If Palace play the way they played against City then Chelsea will be in for a tough afternoon. Selhurst Park can be a very noisy ground when the team do well.

Looking forward to the United game though as I’m sure you are too 😉

As a boy, long time ago, I use to love going to New Year game. I have memories of the following:
All the men wore flat caps, bunnets.

All the men seemed to smoke pipes, can still smell the St Bruno.

All the men seemed to have a half bottle of whisky in their inside jacket pocket. This was shared enthusiasticly with their mates.

There was no segregation.

As I said along time ago, but happy memories of going to football with my long departed father.

Absolutely, and on another note it seems that Cattermole has displaced Mcgeogh in the Sunderland team.Either Dylan is still carrying a knock as Cattermole is hopeless.

No they didn't. Half empty stadiums, disinterested players and managers? I have no particular problem with the FA cup, I just don't see why 'the magic of the' has to be applied as a suffix all the time and the BBC feels the need to show these kind of early round diddy games live on primetime TV.

Big upsets are much harder to come by these days: the EPL club are so much stronger and wealthier than the rest, that, like you said, they can play fringe players and still hammer the opposition. Top four or EPL survival are much more important to the EPL clubs now. Still a good competition, even if the old magic isn't there.

It's inevitable. £6 million from winning the FA cup compared to £60million for a jaunt to the champions League group stages.

I think there's some merit in looking at the French cup where the lower league clubs are always at home to the top clubs. Not sure how that would affect gate receipts.

I find it a pain in the erse myself, takes far too long and totally changes the game as we know it, Goal line technology is sufficient in my opinion.

Yes it was, think he was absolutely smashed when strikers could charge into goalies and get a goal unlike the goalie getting a foul for someone going within 5 meters of them.

They've certainly stagnated a bit since their excellent form when Neilson came in.

[cabbageandribs1875]

Ayr blowing the chance to go equal top by losing at home to bottom club Falkirk, Dundee utd drawing at home to the new bottom club partick, in the FA cup Bristol city beating premiership Huddersfield, Accrington beating Ipswich, and Aston villa thumped at home by Swansea, unfortunately i don't think we will be getting any further payments from villa for SJM if they were to go up to the premiership...ain't gonna happen

[EH54]

Australia a goal down at the break. Might be back sooner than they think!

[Diclonius]

They've certainly stagnated a bit since their excellent form when Neilson came in.

Somehow still within a win of the top. If they find form at the right time they could yet well go up.

In a piece of nice timing, we could be looking at a historic shock just now. Andrézieux is a town in central France with less than 10,000 inhabitants and play part time in the fourth tier. They are playing Marseille in the Coup de France who have a full strength side on the pitch; Payet, Thauvin, Luis Gustavo, Mandanda etc.

Andrézieux 1-0 up at the half!

There was no contact there, and if the ref said there was, then he clearly does not possess the eyesight to officiate at that level.or indeed any level.:confused:
