Is Manchester City’s advertising board half on the wall and half on the floor ?
It looks taller for some reason…

You’re right. It’s an optical illusion using two screens around the pitch, and around what was once the running track.

Yep, almost as if the FA had arranged it for all the smaller clubs to get knocked out so all the big names stay in. N.B. I know they didn't, but if they had the draw would look pretty much like this, with us getting a tricky away draw the only anomaly.
🤣……the cup draws has been fixed for years. How many times have we seen for a semi final line up of for example
Man City
Man Utd
Southampton
Leicester
end up as
Man City v Southampton
Man Utd v Leicester
As soon as the expected results occur we get force fed “The final everyone wants to see” for weeks on end!
This sort of thing runs through every round once the bigger clubs join the competition, just another reason as to why there is no longer any magic of the cup.

Argyle fans totally outsinging the plastic Mancs. Brilliant travelling support as always.
Very much this.

The influence PAFC had on Fans United was down to us being a “proper football club” or similar

They’ve always been amazing away. They are the very definition of decent football club

One thing I'm noticing this year is the quality of 'the rest' in the Premier League. Had Albion not spent that cash in the summer we may well have been where Wolves are. We were the fourth worst over the second half of last season.
