OFFIAL THREAD**FC United of Manchester v Brighton and Hove Albion** FC FA cup replay

[Lady Whistledown]

Steve Cotterill must be very confused by all this "football" stuff going on. I don't think he was aware you were allowed to pass the ball on the ground.

 

[Giraffe]

Am I right that if the game is called off after 70 minuetes the result stands

No, it can be called off with two minutes to go

 

[1066familyman]

They said it was -6 just before ko. Now showing -2. It won't get abandoned now. I'm still a bit surprised it went ahead in the first place. Dare I say No ESPN there, no game tonight ?

 

[Zed Seagull]

Looking comfortable so far Albion. Watching on ESPN thread. No meet up for the BHAlbas tonight... it's too f*cking cold. Already minus 18c outside.

Pah!! -22 up here last week bud!!

 

[Common as Mook]

If you would have bothered to attend the game at the Withdean, you would know that they created a great atmosphere, and I think everyone there respected that, end of. And where have you been, living in a shoe? Football Club United of Manchester supported by Manchester United fans shock!!!

Welcome to NSC Terry Christian.

All if the above is irrelevant to my point. Never mind.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Very good. Someone living 260 miles from Manchester doesn't hate Manchester United and that makes them Terry Christian. Brilliant. I wasn't even aware you'd made a point, I was just commenting on you stating the obvious!

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Should have scored.

Can you confirm whether you are or are not Terry Christian ?

 

[Mr Banana]

Can I just point out that I once interviewed Karl Munroe? He had a trial for us in the first pre-season under Micky Adams. The interview never got used.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Nicky Platt: sounds like a character from Coronation Street.

 

[Bold Seagull]

Can you confirm whether you are or are not Terry Christian ?

Yes I am, but CoM could only have guessed that...

 

[Common as Mook]

We're on to "Feed the Scousers" now....

[Bold Seagull]

We're on to "Feed the Scousers" now....

They've got the same kit, they wear the same scarfs, they sing the same songs, anyone would think this lot are Manchester United fans!

 

[clarkey]

I LOVE Gordon Greer. Hes so out of proportion. Hench top half, chicken legs.

 

[clapham_gull]

Yes I am, but CoM could only have guessed that...

We did meet briefly in the mid 90s, I'll still waiting for the apology.

 

[Common as Mook]

They've got the same kit, they wear the same scarfs, they sing the same songs, anyone would think this lot are Manchester United fans!

I rest my case. Hence my dislike. What exactly is YOUR point.

 

[HH Brighton]

Greer has the air of complacency about him this second half.

 

[West Hoathly Seagull]

Pen given outside the box.

OH NO at Calderon
