January 31, 20169 yr Not bad for Carlisle, thought we were going to get hammered and I mean a drubbing. They had the majority of the possession as I would expect, we carved out a few chances on the counter. Biggest crowd at Brunton Park for many years.
January 31, 20169 yr Chelsea could have got double figures today, MK Dons looked absolutely shocking defensively. I hope they continue to defend like that in the league.
February 9, 20169 yr Is it tonight that Liverpool are facing West Ham in the replay? I think West Ham will win if they perform to the best of the ability.
February 9, 20169 yr Author Yes it is tonight, West Ham v Liverpool. Live fifth-round games: Sat 20th Feb: Arsenal v Hull BT Bournemouth v Everton 5:15 BBC Sun 21st Feb: Blackburn v West Ham/Liverpool BT Chelsea v Man City 4:00 BBC Mon 22nd Feb: Shrewsbury v Man United 7:45 BT It will the 50th time in a row that Man United have had their FA Cup game shown on live TV.
February 9, 20169 yr Author A thrilling end in the dying seconds of extra time. I'm sure a few were watching tonight. Great stuff from West Ham.
February 9, 20169 yr Was a really good game. Thought we were the better team but we couldn't finish for shit. Gut wrenching to concede in the last minute of extra time. Even more peeved when it was never a free kick and the scorer might as well stood on our player. But far too many positives to take out of that game. Sturridge looked class. Keep him fit, we'll finish Top 6 and give ourselves a good chance of a cup.
February 9, 20169 yr Comiserations to all the Liverpool fans. We wanted to do you on penalties. No chance, our penalty record is ridiculously good :D
February 9, 20169 yr No chance, our penalty record is ridiculously good :D We had about six penalty takers on the pitch. Would have been spoilt for choice if we'd got that one in the second half. Even Owen said it should have been given!
February 10, 20169 yr One of the last great Upton Park nights with a perfect finish! Absolutely buzzing, even if Liverpool probably shaded it on the night.
February 10, 20169 yr Unlucky Peterbrough there losing on penalties to WBA - some great young players from the league one side including Forrester and Samuelson(a West Ham loanee M L Hammmer)
February 16, 20169 yr Author FA Cup replays could be no-more after 2018 and cup games will be played midweek according to this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35587212 What do you think?
February 17, 20169 yr FA Cup replays could be no-more after 2018 and cup games will be played midweek according to this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35587212 What do you think? That would be another nail (or two) in the coffin of the FA Cup. It was bad enough when the police effectively forced the FA to have a limit of one replay by insisting on a ten day gap between the original match and the replay. If they really want to reduce the number of fixtures, there are better ways of doing that. Scrapping the League Cup would make far more sense.
February 18, 20169 yr If they really want to reduce the number of fixtures, there are better ways of doing that. Scrapping the League Cup would make far more sense. I think a better idea would be scrapping the JPT and just let Championship, League One and League Two clubs enter the League Cup.
February 18, 20169 yr Author Shrewsbury v Man United another defining game in the Van Gaal era. Surely he'll have to go if they lose to Shrewsbury won't he? Going back to the news of possibly scraping cup replays. Make the League Cup only for the Championship/League One/League Two clubs is a good idea. Do not scrap cup replays. FA Cup replays are legendary hence the 1999 FA Cup Semi-Final, Ronnie Radford and recently West Ham v Liverpool to name a few.
February 19, 20169 yr Shrewsbury v Man United another defining game in the Van Gaal era. Surely he'll have to go if they lose to Shrewsbury won't he? LVG will be sacked on the spot or on the following morning if Man United lose next Monday. United's season would effectively be over 3 months early if that happens.
February 19, 20169 yr LVG will be sacked on the spot or on the following morning if Man United lose next Monday. United's season would effectively be over 3 months early if that happens. Losing to Shrewsbury would be seriously embarrassing. However, their season would still be alive. They should still get through in the Europa League, which keeps their hopes of qualifying for the Champions League alive.
February 19, 20169 yr Only an idiot would speculate that Man United on current form could possibly beat the likes of Spurs, Fiorentina, Seville, Napoli etc to win the Europa League.
February 19, 20169 yr If we lose on Monday, which is looking more and more likely every minute, then LVG should have the decency to fall on his sword immediately after the match...literally. Absolutely no way the fans will be able to get past that or the Glazers.
