Is the FA Cup still magic in your opinion?

Only when there's a giant cupset.

I love the cup I have to say!

I like the cup.....when we're drawn away and I don't have to pay for it.

The magic has gone in my view, only 10 games played at 3pm today.

AFC Wimbledon are into the FA Cup fourth round for the first time since their reformation in 2002.

The magic has gone in my view, only 10 games played at 3pm today.

 

I wouldn't cite that as a reason myself! I like the varying start times, means you can catch more on telly (for those that way inclined).

 

Still had a few shocks today such as Gillingham beating Cardiff (mind I'm always sceptical that clubs fighting relegation lose on purpose to avoid a cup run distraction).

True, the varying kick-off times have been great.

We were not spectacular but we did the job. Bit disjointed but to be expected when you make 9 changes.

 

 

Some how Darmian was one of our better players!!!

Was he playing in centre defence?

Newport County have beaten Leicester City to progress to the 4th round, some gritty performance from Newport.

Have replays been done away with this season? Hope not cos we ain't beating reading at OT... we do much better away!

Replays until the fifth round.

Was he playing in centre defence?

He was indeed! Far better there than he is on the wing. although that's really not saying much

Didn't realise earlier he could play in the centre!

I've not seen the match but what a result for Newport Town! they are developing a good cup pedigree after what they did last season as well. I'm hoping that Man United get a home draw against any of the lower league teams in the 4th round. Accrington Stanley would be nice!
