Pleased with a home draw. Reading do scare me though.
Chelsea are the luckiest ones. Home to the rank outsiders
Might I propose a Wild Card game between the Hammers and my beloved Leeds United? No....? Just a thought.
We've Been Stitched Up Again!!!
I don't think we've played a lower division club in either the Carling or the FA Cup. It's supposed to be a lottery, but it's been one mangy Prem club after another, Liverpool withstanding only the mangy bit. Molotovs through their car windshields and bollocks to the FA for this transparent fix.
I'd say play the lads in the replay and tank it. Let the Goblin hoarde and Borstal Rovers kick 7 shades of sh**te out of each other. We don't need any season ending injuries and that's what playing this collection of mutts consecutively adds up to. No glory-and no injuries.
Let the sheepshaggers play these two for us.
Unbeliveable.
