Really dislike managers doing this. Comment is the usual ott football Twitter response, but the thought is right. 

The fa cup is for all English teams, no matter their level, Prem teams would do well to remember that.

Especially the smaller sides who a handful of years ago would have relied on the cup takings.

Wolves had 10 men for nearly 80 mins win it first time!!

 just saw the Forest sign "2022 playoff champions" imagine being that excited about being the 3rd best team in the 2nd division

To be honest I still watch our play off final wins with excitement?

A football team has to play one extra match and it is just awful. Feel for Tommy Frank, very tough for him.

They were pretty crap. Even after being down to 10 men their goal came from a bit of pinball in our box.

Glad I wasn't more crass with the comment

Probably belongs in the ‘what grinds my gears’ thread but it’s come to a head watching today and yesterday’s games. But the relatively new trend of players, usually defenders and goalkeepers, celebrating every single micro event in the game.  Handshakes and shouting when a defender makes a tackle or a goalkeeper makes a save, which is their job. Irks me something rotten.
