Well done FOX, for once, as they have learned from NBC as they show us a cracking atmosphere from W Yorkshire. The fans are screaming John Denver's "West Virginia." I'm not quite sure that's their club song.

7:45 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Both teams are aiming to make their first semi in years. The Reading Railroad for the first since 1927 and Bradford City for the first time since 1911.

It's Country Roads that's being sung as they're off.

7:46 AM

Simon Cox wins a n early free kick for the Reading Railroad.

7:47 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

The free kick is easily headed away.

7:48 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Steve Clarke, who had a stint with the Baggies, is now in charge of the Railroaders.The song is actually Country Roads, amid a cracking atmosphere.

It's been an old fashioned start to this cup tie . Lots of long balls on surface that resembles something from the 70s.

James Hanson heads straight to Federici off a cross from Meredith as the Bantams have the first chance of the match

8:01 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

The first chance of the match for Reading as a clearance from Stephen Kelly found Jamie Mackie down the right . He did well to get past Meredith and his pass into the box found Pav Pogs , who superbly turned and saw his shot crash off the post. The first time any of Reading's forwards have had a sniff at goal.

8:16 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

OH! The Bantams nearly took an unlikely lead as an in swinging cross from Gary Lidell eluded everyone and came off the post. It started from a free kick by Felipe Morais that was headed away and kept in by James Hanson.

8:24 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Rory McArdell is booked for the Bantams, the first of the match

8:24 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Steve Clarke would have been unhappy had the Bantams scored as Hector was called for a foul on Jon Stead when it appeared to be minimal contact, off a really long clearance from Steven Darby. That free kick started it all.

8:25 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

It's 0-0 at the half of an old fashioned Cup tie with lots of commitment, but few chances. Each side had an effort come off the post.

8:34 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Morning, MUR - thanks for getting us going this morning. Brilliant post.

It's a real footie grab-bag this morning, isn't it? I chose sleep over the first half of Bradford v. Reading in the Cup. Can you blame me? 0-0 at the interval.

8:34 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Rob Stone: "The ball has been in the air so much in the first half that it's earned platinum status on Delta."

Boom boom!

8:41 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

AN interesting stat. Only 45% of the passes have been completed compared to 80% in a Prem match. The state of the Valley Parade pitch has been a contributing factor as the second half is underway.

8:50 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

OH!!! The best chance of the match as Morais was through on goal and his wayward shot made it across the face of the goal

8:51 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

We're back on at Valley Parade and Bradford have an early chance there cleared off the line.

8:51 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

The first corner of the match as Darby clears for a corner, pressured by Pav Pogs. The corner from Norwood is out for another.

8:52 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

The next corner from Norwood is headed out by Jon Stead.

8:52 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Good morning Bob. Great to have you on board. I hope you are well rested. This match has been a throwback to the 70s and the tactics of the Crazy Gang.

8:53 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

BOOM BOOM Indeed. Both teams will certainly be earning their frequent flyer miles. The chances like the food on this flight are merely scraps.

8:54 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Great atmosphere at Valley Parade today - they deserve a better match. This is my warm-up for the MLS season.

8:56 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Reading players dispute the Bantams first corner of the match and rightly so.

8:58 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Most of the traffic headed toward Reading's goal now. The home side trying to press their advantage.

8:59 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

The corner from Chalobah is headed away then another is won.The next corner from Morais is also headed away.

8:59 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Chalobah fouls Morais.

8:59 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Incredibly, one of the semi-finals could be Bradford v. WBA!

8:59 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

A waste as a foul is called off the free kick.

9:00 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

That would be incredible. How about Bradford vs west Brom? The Bantams eliminated the Vanillas in the Capital One Cup Semis on their run to Wembley.

9:01 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

I saw your post about this being the 20th MLS season. How time flies. I think your Revs have a marathon trip to Seattle.

9:02 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Or Villa? Their season is now all about getting to a Cup Final - and avoiding relegation!

9:02 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

I think this is more of a Southwest Airlines flight than a Delta flight. People fighting for seats, none first class. AN economy flight with peanuts worth of quality.

9:03 AM

That semi would be a chance for revenge for Villa in the strangest of circumstances.

9:04 AM

We do - it's the late one on Fox Sports 1 tomorrow night - 9:30pm EST. I'll be DVRing it. I thought I might start doing a Monday MLS Update on the LOB. I can't promise to watch a lot live matches but I hope to keep up to date with whose doing well and the news around the league.

The Yak is warming up for Reading. He came off the bench to score the winner against Derby County in the last round.

9:04 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

The cross from Billy Clarke did NOT make it to Billy Knott.

9:05 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

You may be interested to note that Steve Clarke and his staff were getting frustrated in the first half with some of the physical challenges. I did not see much wrong with them, IMHO.

9:07 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Billy Clarke didn't get his Scout Merit Badge for Knotts.

9:07 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Great singing from the Valley Parade faithful now - I read that they did a nice John Denver rendition in the first half.

9:08 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

They did prior to the first half kickoff. BOOM BOOM! I don;t think any of the Bradford City players are exactly Boy Scouts.

9:09 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

They don't seem to be - Steve Clarke wouldn't approve.

9:10 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Jon Stead was through on goal for the first time this match, but a last ditch tackle by Stephen Kelly, as he was about to shoot , prevented a goal.

9:10 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Gareth McCleary is on for Hal Robson-Kanu.

9:11 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

The Bantams get five figure crowds for league matches due to affordable pricing. Other clubs would be wise to follow suit.

9:12 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

You are correct about Steve Clarke not approving . I think a lot of it is him trying to gain an unfair advantage because he knows his team is being out played and he doesn't want to admit it.

9:13 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

I was just reading an article about Kid Rock who has the same policy, charging $25 a ticket for his concerts. Of course, his music is as crap as this match.

9:13 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

A great chance for Bradford as James Hanson collected a long pass down the right and his cross was diverted just wide by James Hanson.

9:17 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Not a classic day of footie, it has to be said. After this one we've got the choice of QPR v. Spurs on NBC SN or Ipswich v. Brentford on BEin - what's your choice, mate?

9:18 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

I agree. It reminds me of some of the kick and run we matches we watched when we lived in England.

9:18 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

I was thinking of watching both, but my choice would be the Tractor boys vs the Bees.

9:19 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Have you experienced a lot of turbulence on this flight?

9:19 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

OH!!!! Nearly the lead for the Bantams as Davies headed just wide off a tasty free kick from Felipe Morais.

9:20 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Andrew Halliday is on for Felipe Morais.

9:21 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

And then the replay of Villa v. The Baggies as the late one. I'll be taking off at half-time as Kate and I have a "culinary presentation" to participate in up in Buffalo this afternoon. Should be fun.

9:21 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Credit to the Bantams for keeping Strikers Jamie Mackie, Hal Robson-Kanu , and Pav Pogs in check.

9:22 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

I hope you have a great presentation. Will the main course be Buffalo wings?

9:23 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

lt's Feed the Yak time for Reading.

9:24 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Like for like as the Yak is on for Jamie Mackie. He scored a late winner at the Rams in the last round.

9:24 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

He's flying Southwest, so he will be eating peanuts and feeding off of scraps.

9:25 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

LOL - could well be. It appears that The Yak has been enjoying a few culinary adventures himself. As the commentator says, "he's carrying a bit of timber."

9:26 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

The Yak was playing in Qatar and by the look of it, was eating more gourmet food there. He might be interested in your presentation.

9:26 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

A double substitution for the Bantams as Francois Zoko is on for Billy Clarke and Yates is on for Billy Knott. Steve Clarke with a substitution as Hope Akpon is on for the shagged Nat Cahlobah. The final rolls of the dice for both managers.

9:29 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Billy Lidell is called for a foul on Pav Pogs.

9:30 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Bloody hell - massive scramble in the box.

9:30 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Two close chances for Reading. A free kick from Oliver Norwood crashes off the bar then Ben Williams saved a close range effort to prevent a late Reading winner.

9:31 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

It would have been a controversial goal as that free kick was knocked on to the post by the hand of Pav Pogs.

9:32 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

If there is a replay then it looks likely to be during Spring Break.

9:34 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

The replay shows that the free kick was headed out of play , but for Pav's hand ball.

9:34 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Looks like it, mate. Do you have break the same week we do - March 16-20?

9:35 AM

Four minutes of stoppage time.

Yes I do. I plan to be around for all the action that week.

9:36 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Pearce is down and shedding blood after a clash of heads. He's really woozy.

9:37 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Pathetic by the ref. He's more concerned about the player changing shirts than his safety.

9:38 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

It's a horror show now with Jamie Mackie bleeding like a stuck pig.

9:39 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

It sure is , but I thin it's Alex Pearce. He finally makes it off the field.

9:40 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Play resumes.

9:41 AM

It's over as it finishes 0-0. There was lots of huffing and puffing , but few chances. The replay will be at the Madjeski during Spring Break.

Teams in the tunnel now at Loftus Road.

QPR - Green, Onuoha, Caulker, Rio, Yun, Isla, Sandro, Henry, Austin, Zamora, Phillips. Subs: HIll, SWP, McCarthy, Kranjcar, Hoillett, Grego-Cox, Cornley.

Spuds - Lloris, Walker, Dier, Vertonghen, Davies, Mason, Bentaleb, Townsend, Eriksen, Chadli, Kane. Subs: Rose, Soldado, Lamela, Vorm, Dembele, Fazio, Stambo

9:53 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Sounds like a plan. I'm going for the Spuds because that late Villa winner earned me four points in the PPP. I want QPR to stay in the drop zone.

9:54 AM

I hope your Whites have a massive road win at the Evil DW.

Silvestri, Wootton, Bamba, Bellusci, Berardi, Mowatt, Cook, Murphy, Taylor, Sharp, Morison.

10:01 AM

Loads of confusion at the beginning of this one.

10:01 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

QPR attack from the off and Lloris tips over a header from Bobby Zamora that came off the angle of the post and bar. The ref does not call a corner on Zamora's return to SFL.

10:02 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Let the Evil Latics have it!

10:02 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

We need three points today against relegation threatened Wigan.

10:03 AM  
Blogger manunitedrules said...

Lots of connections between the two clubs . Clive Allen commentating as he's watching tow of his former London Clubs. Chris Ramsey , the QPR manager, was a youth team manager with the Spuds. Caulker and Zamora both previously played for the Spuds.

10:04 AM

Townsend wins a corner.

10:05 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Not a lot of goals on offer yet this morning. Bradford v. Reading obviously finished 0-0. The Southwest Derby of Wrexham v. Chester finished 1-0.

I have a feeling we will see more goals .

10:08 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Harry Kane is my main hope for England. There was a lot of banter on last Sunday's 606 about the preferred front-line for England. I'd have Sturridge and Kane up top and Roon in the hole.

Simple free kick lofted in, keeper didn't come and Kane wanted it more than anyone else. Simple header.

1-0!

That's Alex's fourth goal in five matches and he's now our top scorer on the paltry score of eight. That shows you everything about our season.

GOAL! Kane rounds Rob Green and sticks away Spurs' second. That's is 16th Premiership goal and he's really putting the wind up me now about the GBB stakes.

Chris Ramsey responds by bringing on Junior Hoilett for Mauricio Isla. I think this one is done and dusted.

Roy Hodgson must have just chiseled Harry Kane's name into his squad for next week. What do you think of my idea of Kane and Sturridge up front with either Welly or Sterling out wide and Roon in the hole?

So Sterling over Welly? Sooner's not so key on Theo in his current form.

I actually got it from the movie with Michael Kane, who must be proud of his namesake.

Theo is just back from a marathon injury layoff. I don't think her;s ready to be in the England squad.
