Theatrical dive, but the shirt pull was clear. United yet again benefit from questionable officiating.

I do regret that tattoo.

Man U relying on VAR to make up for crappy defending. Maguire had no idea where the ball was.

The first 5 minutes or so we gave it a go and possibly looked more likely to score. But that's the best it got and the rest of the match was a continuation of the last several (Spurs excepted), the woeful memories all fade into each other. There was no urgency, no determination, little organisation. Players walking or standing still when they should be running. Misjudging the flight of the ball for headers, letting the ball bounce and not being quick enough to react. It's obvious they have given up and are just going the motions. Earlier in the season I thought they had enough about them to survive, but this bunch of wasters have no character, no passion, no bravery. They are managed by a coach who is still learning the basics and is well out of his depth The club is run by a bunch of passengers on the King Power gravy train. Oblivious to the real problems, both on the pitch and in the stands. It's the blind leading the blind leading the blind.

0-0 with a 21-man brawl and 8 sendings off.

Blatant dive, deserving of a card, but treated leniently of course.

He's diving before there's any contact, which was minimal.

Diaz kicked the ball out of playing distance and made sure there was contact with the keeper accompanied with a dramatic dive.

Arsenal didn't look in a rush to score. They knew we'd give them chances eventually, and that we'd struggle to create anything. Dismal match, abysmal performance.

First of all, congratulations to the organisers of the protest. I've organised a few and taken part in more in my time, not all particularly successful, others surprisingly so. I know what it takes and the personal worry it brings. You can't always predict how successful a protest will be. There are numerous uncontrollable factors that can affect things on the day. You can't regard it as a one-off. It has to be part of a longer campaign. I do firmly believe that enthusiasm breeds enthusiasm, and small victories like today's protest will build awareness and momentum. Learn from both what went well and what didn't, such as the inevitable division of the march by a very busy Aylestone Road. I think it's vital to decide exactly what the focus is, as it wasn't totally clear today. I don't think it's tactically best to focus on Rudkin if it's wholesale change at board level that is desired. While it's amusing for a moment to see Rudkin portrayed as a clown on the truck, a serious campaign needs to concentrate on serious slogans at that level. Obviously this isn't on the same scale, but look at how Led By Donkeys operate for good examples of how to organise campaigns. Please don't take any of this as destructive criticism. The organisers of today's protest deserve every credit for their work. It's not the end, it's just the start.

I wore yellow at and after the protest, and walked unchallenged into the ground.

Corrected it for you

I remember things briefly flaring up against Norwich at the KP in 2019 when Cantwell and co floored Iheanacho. The same match that saw Norwich suss out how vulnerable we were to the high press and paved the way for nearly every team to do the same.

Pleased for the Plymouth fans. I used to work with one in the West Midlands in the 90s and went to several of their away matches with the Argyle faithful, great fans.

I used to like Phil Neville.

Fair play to Liverpool for apparently considering those of us with colour vision deficiency in their choice of strip.

Irony doesn't come across well here.

It's always good to see a bit of giant-killing in the Cup

That didn't look in. Greedy 7 team get the favourable decision.

Time and again United receive several minor but favourable decisions in a match which tip the balance in their favour. The handball was relatively innocuous in itself but it gave them a chance to put the ball into our box, compounded in this case by blatantly corrupt officiating for the offside.

Never a free kick, and offside for the goal. That's how officials sway matches for the greedy 6.

It's a coded reminder about the protest. Matterface knows...

You win the feedline of the day award!

It's like watching Brazil.
