Currently watching Brentford v Leicester. Not a bad match. I wish the Bees had selected a stronger side though. Can see Leicester winning comfortably in the second half.

Interesting to hear from Dean Smith at half-time. Thinks Jack Grealish can get in the England squad while staying there. Looking to bring in a top striker before the end of January. We'll see........as much as I hate them they'll have enough quality to stay up unfortunately IMO.

Good match, Brentford really organised and played some great stuff.... Interesting listening to Dean Smith at the end talking about the set up at the club and how good the 2 sporting directors they have are.......

If Brentford don't go up, wouldn't mind those fellas over Winstanley. Keep making pretty good transfer hits.

Did you see the chart of profits earned on players they have brought in and then sold on? Very impressive. Looks like they are not missing Maupay too much and pocketed about 18 million!

Isn’t their Chairman in the same ballpark for wealth as TB too? A club going places I think. New ground next season as well.

West Ham losing at home to WBA.

That has to be good for us next week - as well as a couple of red cards to key players!

West Ham managing one shot at goal at home to ten men.

Liverpool next for them before the big one.

Fantastic result for Oxford United. I've never particularly liked them as a club or their fans but well done to them.

The replay guaranteed to be on TV. Hopefully BBC snap it up rather than the Spuds game again and a nice, new, cosy studio for Lineker and his pals. Oxford v Newcastle is what the FA Cup is all about.

There's ten days until the replay. If Cardiff City fans were guilty of those offences then the FA should throw the club out of the FA Cup and make an example of those two types of abuse. That would send out the strongest warning possible that it has no place whatsoever in football.

Agree totally :thumbsup:

They could've got the Welsh dialect all mixed up, when slagging off tinpot ???

The law of averages surely should see one competitive FA Cup match today.

I honestly think Shrewsbury can give Liverpool a surprise and maybe take the lead or get a replay. And no, I haven't been drinking! If Klopp plays the kids, they could get roughed up a bit. Team news will be absolutely vital.
