[Football] FA Cup quarter-finals

[Bodian]

Were Wolves lucky to finish with 11 on the pitch? Would have missed 3 matches as well.

Yes, But all the sweeter that they lost with all 11 on the pitch in the way they did. They have no 'get out' clause!

The negative with Coventry going into the SF is that you can bet your life savings that Chelsea will draw them……….

That's what I was thinking. Home draws all the way through the League Cup, and the same in the FA Cup so far, with several lower division sides. The luck is certainly with them.

Oops...poor BDB.

How much is Haaland paid….Pepi doing cartwheels of delight at the former winning the ball on the halfway line

But how much funnier will it be when they still don't win anything?

Well that’s Newcastle out I reckon. 2-0 City. 31 mins

Nice header by Botman

Citeh showing how to deal with a low block; keep shooting and shooting because something might happen (2 x deflected shots).

Yeah but City will now have 26 less completed passes in their full time statistics, so why shoot?

This is why I always shout “PASS” whenever we get near their box

When those around me shout "shoooooot" (closely followed by "why did you shoot?")

I always shout "no not you".

It’s Stat Padding…any relation?

I might be mis reading the signs but is Alan Shearer a bit pissed off? Seemed to be making his comments at half time through gritted teeth.

Shame

Another Palace fan?

Jonathan Pearce going early on the commentary too when Wolves 2nd went in.

"They've won it, Wolverhampton Wanderers"

" Hugo Bueno off the bench to score the winning goal and break Coventry hearts"

Think he’s Bristol City but soft spot for us as he’s local to here

I wouldn't be at all surprised if Enzo Maresca was on the list, and near the top of it at that, should RdZ go.

 

[METALMICKY]

Obviously Chelsea to lose today. Unlikely so I'll have to settle for a horrendous error from sulky Sanchez to make my day!

Errr shouldn't Leicester be wearing a kit more contrasting to Chelsea's blue?
