Post festive blues in these FA Cup matches. Quality is dire, expect the rest of weekend’s games to follow suit.
FA Cup 2023/24
- Thread starter IRN-BRUno
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Now that is some goal.
What a finish by Porro
What a hit by Porro
What a goal
What a hit son
Great finish
He wellied that one.
That was worth waiting for
Thought they stopped replays? Or is that at a certain round?
No replays from 5th round onwards. ET and penalties.
Am I right in saying they'll be no replays at all next season?
How the feck as he cocked that up?
Not sure. Hope that is right.
Hopefully the Sunderland - Newcastle game is a fun watch.
As FA Cup weekend, a United “on this day” classic. Villa United 6/1/2002.
Even when we were losing, I always used to think we’d come back. And we usually did.
Some direct football there too…. we could pass it around but we didn’t do it for the sake of it.
Good times.

Fabulous atmosphere.
How the feck is Craig Pawson allowed to referee this weekend?
What he do wrong? Hasn't reffed since our game against villa?
He was on VAR and recommended the red for DCL.
He was VAR on the Palace-Everton game
Feel like this is a bit of an awkward kit combination. Or maybe I'm just getting old.
Cheers.
I think I may become a ref, seems a piss easy job, just do what you want and never get fired. Literally just repeatedly feck up and your job is safe as houses.
Real shame Roberts is missing this.
is there a reason Newcastle couldn’t wear their away kit? This is too similar for my brain to comprehend
yeah it's terrible
You wonder if something will happen with Pawson once the DCL appeal is heard. If they dropped him now it is an admission he got it wrong before they appeal happens.
It’s impossible to see who’s who when scrambling in the penalty box for a corner etc. Why have Newcastle been allowed to wear their home kit when it’s indistinguishable from Sunderland’s from a distance?!
That should have warranted him either a suspension or a severe demotion.
Seriously, I thought they would be wearing the kit with the Saudi colors. The kit combination for the 2 teams is just terrible, even on a clear day.
Yeah same here.
It's red, white and black vs black, white and red. I'm constantly doing double checking who's who.
Nice, stop the flow of the game for the officials to piss about.
Why the feck are Newcastle not wearing their away jersey
Very confusing. They wore their away against Sheff United

Kit clash is terrible. Away kits are there for a reason...wankers.
Just gives us a minute to highlight that Pawson has been rewarded for his supreme VAR work with one of the highest profile cup ties.
I've been watching on projector but just checked by switching on the TV in the bar instead, kit clash isn't half as bad.
Hope the kits don't clash as bad on the pitch, this is difficult to watch.
Jobe aint Jude, that's for sure.
Thank you , came here to post this . I can barely make out the 2 teams I’m also getting old maybe
First time I've watched Jobe Bellingham. Not impressed so far. Looks quite clumsy.
