January 9, 20224 yr It's great that it is back exclusively free-to-air, the FA Cup. Agree with this. Be interesting to see what happens in the latter stages if all the big teams get there, airing on free to air TV is good brand exposure. Guess the problem really is the prestige is not there in the same way as the Premier League/Champions League as the rewards are way higher for those two.
January 9, 20224 yr That's twice now in recent seasons that Arsenal have been knocked out of the FA Cup at the 3rd round by Nottingham Forrest. It was a deserved win for Nottingham Forrest as well. That is a good draw for Kidderminster in the 4th round, they should get a decent amount of money from that.
January 10, 20224 yr Best thing about the cup this year is lack of replays, always hated them. Lots of away teams would always play for a draw in the first leg to get the replay back on their turf and earn some extra TV money. Now it's decided on the day the quality and urgency was so much higher. Long may that continue.
January 10, 20224 yr Leeds losing in the third round again isn't the best to see - at least it should give them more time to focus on staying afloat in the Premier League.
January 10, 20224 yr Author Leeds losing in the third round again isn't the best to see - at least it should give them more time to focus on staying afloat in the Premier League. Bielsa made a few changes didn't he?
January 10, 20224 yr Bielsa made a few changes didn't he? I suppose he needs to given how many of the first team seem to be down with injuries!
January 10, 20224 yr Author We are certainly pushing our luck, our defence is all over the place, got to sort it out otherwise Villa will make us pay.
January 10, 20224 yr Goal from Villa disallowed after a very long check of VAR. I remember the days you could celebrate a goal as soon as it was scored! :lol:
January 10, 20224 yr Sounds like the Villa goal was disallowed for the offside rather than the foul - would have thought that would have been a really harsh goal to be disallowed. Thought Utd were poor (again), but in to the next round I guess.
January 10, 20224 yr That was not a good performance at all from us and I don't know what is going on but Rashford looked so off and quite frankly depressed throughout the match and even after he got substituted. Bruno hasn't looked like his old usual self either recently. At least we won which was the minimum requirement.

Bruno hasn't looked like his old usual self either recently. At least we won which was the minimum requirement. Rashford has been terrible for a long, long time now. I always thought he would become a top player, but he just hasn't kicked on at all. He's a player who thrives on confidence, but he's been consistently dreadful even before he started fraying in to politics.
January 11, 20224 yr Yeah I agree, ever since the whole school meals stuff his game's dropped off massively to the point where you have to question whether his heart's in it anymore.
January 12, 20224 yr Don’t think I have ever seen a worse United performance that the one on Monday, Villa dominated then over the park but they got the goal so the rest will be forgotten I guess. Felt like they were looking a reason to disallow the Villa goal too.
January 13, 20224 yr You can't have watched us much this season if you thought that was our worst game :P The disallowed goal was strange, they said it was for offside right? But Ings wasn't. However it was right to be disallowed but instead for the foul on Cavani.
February 4, 20224 yr Author Ridiculous decision. Goal had been coming though. This side is still mentally very, very weak at times, just no killer instinct .
February 4, 20224 yr On what planet was that not a hand ball? Man’s out there playing f***ing basketball
