FA Cup 2020/2021

[StanSP]

Referee correctly overturns his original decision.

[Guest seanfox778]

That's not a red 

[UniFox21]

No way is that a red. Good officiating. 

[KingsX]

Andy Carroll, past it a bit?   At least his duels with David Luiz have been a sight.

 

 

I thought I saw a ball around them, or was it just an accidental impediment?  Not easy to tell with these two.

[AjcW]

This is the longest Carroll has played for about 6 years

What makes me laugh about that red card is that give it a few weeks or months, might even be a year, and Danny Murphy will be on MOTD or a co-commentator during the euros or something calling exactly the same tackle a blatant red. Its not, but you know it'll happen.

[Parafox]

Wouldn't mind Dubravca as a replacement for Kasper.

Murphy calling Dubravca, Dubrovnic

This is probably the only time I've ever wanted a Steve Bruce side to win.

[StanSP]

Decent goal to be fair. Lucky for him VAR exists. 1-0.

Yes. Absolutely. **** off Arsenal but good goal.

[AjcW]

If Smith Rowe has good fitness he might just become the player Wilshere was supposed to be. 

[StanSP]

Hate keepers that do that. Henderson just jumped up in the air, knee first, head-height and has injured one of his own players. Not to mention probably fouled the Watford player in the process.

 

Keepers get far too much protection. Which is ironic because referees are constantly telling referees to 'protect their players'

[Arkie Bennett]

Lingard showing the full range of his talents and doing what he does best, delaying free kicks.

[Super_horns]

We don’t look like scoring but have been competitive at least .

[Fox92]

Mark Wright on the bench for Crawley (and Josh too, mind).

[winteriscoming]

Beckford saying Leeds are everybody’s favourite second team. Fvck off!!!!!!! 

[goody2028]

Can’t see any upsets happening today with Man City, Chelsea, Leeds and Marine all to win 

[Koke]

Chelsea have 91% possession right now. They're surprisingly playing a fairly strong team.

Josh Wright’s tour of league 2 sides continues. 
 

I do still find it mad that they’ve signed Mark Wright too. At that level you wouldn’t just waste wages as a publicity stunt either so they must think he can do a job. Hope he comes on i’d be keen to see how he looks.

Man City have gone very strong too. Pretty much full strength actually. 3-0 at HT.

Lot of strong teams have been put out by prem sides this weekend. Refreshing to see. I’d imagine the thinking Is get the games won by about an hour then start dragging players off. No replays either so probably a bit more caution needed from the bigger teams. 

[Corky]

Pearce- "I was driving home last night and I thought this game might be off because of the fog"

Keown- "All credit to the groundsman for getting the game on"

 

Yes, well done to the groundsman for clearing the fog.

[Corky]

To be fair to Keown, he may have switched off and zoned out sitting next to Pearce. Drones on more than Martin Tyler.

[Nalis]

Decent finish by Crawley
