FA Cup 5th Round (15 Feb - 18 Feb)

It's stupid when teams do that. Leicester doing it was totally mindboggling.
Watford make 5 changes, but QPR no changes
Man, if Wimbledon knock out West Ham & Milwall back to back, the team should be given OBE's for doing the world a favour. I reckon they've a good chance at home, too! Also hoping Frank can take Derby to the 6th round 
Of course, Chelsea vs United

I hate FA Cup weekend. QPR v Watford and what's tonight, Newport v City? Feck that.
This is a crap day for fotball.
Totally agree, the only interesting tie out of 8 gamers is ours … on Monday!
Terrible weekend for football overall. Think i will tune in for a Spanish or Italian game today and tomorrow and thats about it. Time to do something else.
Shit weekend. It could easily have been avoided if PL had planned the 26-27 Feb midweek fixtures for this weekend. And the remaining PL teams in the FAC could have played their games in that midweek.
I think I am going to enjoy the cup and watch some smaller teams which I don't do too often . Seems like I am almost alone. Sadly City got an easy big win and we have to wait for Monday to play. Apart from those two things I think I will enjoy it.

I leave for a bit with Brighton in total control, come back and Derby has scored.
Ashley Cole has won the FA Cup 7 times. Today was his first goal!
Brighton hold on for the win.
Just need Newport to beat City

They have stopped showing the FA Cup on cable in the States. Probably a PPV thing.
Apparently, he's won more FA Cups than any player in the history of the competition, which is quite the achievement.
Its blooming amazing and yet this is the first time I've heard about it today.
Derby. Ah well. Get into a playoff place, at least.Lazy feckers.
Brighton in the quarters, great stuff. I actually thought they were pretty average today, luckily Derby were worse. Expected a tougher game tbf.
We just got in from a fun filled/educational day in the woods to watch Wimledon-Millwall
Just checked - The match is not available to watch in the UK 
What a useless buncha prats the FA are.

I only discovered it today when SkySports announced it in a passing statement.Its blooming amazing and yet this is the first time I've heard about it today.
We would likely have heard it sooner had it been a United player instead.
Not for me?
The Athletics is apparently on, and when I check this site, it's not listed: https://www.live-footballontv.com/& on the BBC site, it's just radio/inplay clips.
Makes you wonder why more hasn't been made of this remarkable achievement.
Had it been a Scholes,Giggs,Terry,Lampard or Gerrard achievement more would have been made of it.
He has lived in London, Rome and Los Angeles.....now probably in Derby.....i would kill myself.
Brighton second XI. 4 youths on the bench; not as a suprise as five youths missed the U23 game v City.
Ashley Cole, second oldest player on the pitch and scored a gift. Derby were a bit heavy in their tackling.

7 changes for City and yet their 11 still have Silva,Sane,Mahrez and Jesus as their creative outlets.
We lose Martial and Lingard are are kind of screwed.Hate to think what would happen if Pogba were to be out for a considerable amount of time.

The mythical being that is Phil Foden is playing as well.
Minutes against lower league juggernauts like Newport and Burton are absolutely vital in Foden's development in order to bring through his undoubted world class potential unearthed by the Elite Development Squad. Then at least people can boast about Pep's amazing track record in bringing talent through.
Marcus Rashf......I mean Phil Foden should leave Manchester City
Dean Saunders, is anyone thicker than him?
Paul Ince?
Nah,Saunders is way ahead in the thick league
Ince can come out with common sense now and again. Saunders it is a way of life.
Not worth watching this..
right?
right?
Look at that City bench.
1-0 Poole 90+5
