Absolutely hate the guy but my goodness Fernandes has some technical ability.

If you want to know everything you need to know about United in 30 seconds watch their number 56. 17 year old striker who is literally strolling about after coming on. It’s a nuts culture of mediocrity and low expectations up there these days.

You can see why we were looking at Bassey. Clearly someone who on the eye test is probably written off but has some great attributes.

Hilarious, but actually we’d rather united than Fulham.

Not sure there's a good outcome for us from this game: Fulham that we haven't been able to beat since promotion to the Premier League or Manchester United that we haven't been able to get past in the FA Cup. We're going to need to avoid the winner of this in the draw or defy the precedents.

Have to say, this Obi kid strolls about but at 17 he looks like a real talent.

Will they still do the draw after?

If we get United, at least we’d be guaranteed a bprime TV slot. Something like their last 40 FA Cup ties have been televised.

What's happened in the past is totally irrelevant. I don't get this "We haven't beaten them for ages" thing. Unless the players and coaches and form are exactly the same as all the previous encounters, what we did in years past has no bearing on the likely outcome of a future match.

Fair point, and we've slain some of these dragons in fine style recently as our squad has improved (winning at Hillsborough; beating Chelsea - twice in one season). But human psychology does come into it as well as all the other factors of footballing skill, desire and luck.
