I started watching this about 5 minutes ago when I found out the score. Taking full responsibility for this, my sincerest apologies one and all.

Go away!!!

Danny Murphy is having a Fodentug.

Enjoyed that game, expected Man City to turn it around but if you can't have the upset you want some jeopardy at least.

The BBC don't half over kill the FA cup narrative. I'm all for a giant killing but they're coming across as really patronising towards Cheltenham. We all know the gulf in class but they're a professional side in the football league.. it's too much.

[Super_horns]

Great effort but Man City just came good at the end.

Putting this in Google translate - English to German didn’t help

Man City going out (fingers crossed) and one of Liverpool or Man Utd tomorrow leaves this wide open for us.  What an opportunity.

This didn’t age well but there’s no reason to fear anyone left in the competition if we bring our A game to each tie 

[PhillippaT]

That's an interesting formation Chelsea are using, according to the BBC...  I guess they're more scared of Luton's full backs than their wingers?   

[PhillippaT]

Go KDH!

[Aus Fox]

After beating Chelsea earlier in the week, I would love one of our young lads to go and knock them out the cup too.

[Vacamion]

 

Whilst the heart wants Luton and KDH to win this, the head suspects that Frank will be on his bike if Chelsea lose.

 

Not sure if it's in Leicester's interest for Chelsea to sack Lampard and sort their act out...

1-0 Chelsea

Oh well.

[StanSP]

Don't worry - a few years ago Chelsea were 2-0 up at home to Bradford with just under half a game to go. They lost 4-2!

[Ian Nacho]

Surely they shouldn’t be allowed with two balls on the pitch.

It had no effect on the goal - Luton had more than enough players back.

[StanSP]

Ugh 2-0.

[danny2997]

Two pretty poor goals to concede really, very sloppy from Luton. 

[PhillippaT]

So long as they can keep it in single figures?   

[Nalis]

Abraham doing some nice stat padding today to boost his goals per game ratio.

Is VAR in use for the FA Cup games at this stage?

Only at Premier league stadiums

Only at Premier League grounds which I find grossly unfair to the rest of the competition.

 

Either every game should have it or none.

Yes at PL grounds.

 

Other way round and would that first goal have been chalked off?

Thanks everyone, should they have looked at that first goal?

I don’t think it really interferes with the Luton players too much but to the letter of the law, 2 balls on the pitch and play should have stopped.
