[Albion] FA Cup Fifth Round

[Official Old Man]

So neither Forest nor Ipswich want to visit the Amex. Could this go to pens with both teams missing 5?
As for the dates, I'm sure I saw that they were spread over the 4 days of Friday to Monday, might have been the BBC.

ITV4 - the low def home of cheesy TV. And of Forest vs Ipswich.

 

[rebel51]

Ipswich are proper gash, only a matter of time

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Really timid play by Ipswich

Can't see it being the Friday due to it being the International break. Monday unlikely due to midweek PL games

Ipswich are really, really shit.

Watch Ipswich score first

 

[Jimmy Come Lately]

It's a while since I've been to the City Ground but I'd heard that the intimidating atmosphere was an important part of their home form this season. I can only assume that the ITV4 microphones are as low quality as the pictures.

 

[Dick Head]

Watch Ipswich score first

 

[Hendrax]

Ipswich defending well tbh. dont think they'll be able to keep it up though. Constant pressure from Forrest.

 

[Eeyore]

This coulours in this match remind me of my first Subbuteo set. The places just need those half moon plastic bases attached to them. I'm half expecting a giant hand to come over stand for three 'puts' at the corners.

Well that was terrible

Forest playing like it’s a testimonial, Ipswich completely toothless.

Ipswich are very annoying to watch actually, it’s like Potter-ball in the lean spells. Pass, pass, pass - get the space they’ve worked for, then lose their bottle, turn around and pass backwards. Luongo has done this about five times.

I don’t think I’ve seen a half of football this season with two teams who’ve looked less like scoring

 

[Gabbiano]

Utter dross.

Ipswich desperately need someone with ambition to try something different, cut through the lines and take a shot.

Hope Enciso's knee heals up quickly for them.

Luongo is playing like a competition winner, absolute bobbins.

From The Guardian's Minute-by-Minute coverage:

Half-time: Nottingham Forest 0-0 Ipswich Town​

My wife, sitting next to me, says “it feels like there should be a goal”. More hot takes when we have them.

Hope he stays on. I’ve got a fiver on an Ipswich red card and he looks like the guy for the job.

 

[trueblue]

Quite honestly, given the tedious dross they're serving up, FA should kick them both out of the competition and give a team worth watching a bye to the semi-final.

Definitely, I might have a little look at that bet myself.



edit: He was 22/1.

Perfect conditions for Ipswich to go and nick this.
