What was Murphy saying about quality showing through at the end? Prick.

Dives against fecking Rochdale, the guy has absolutely no honor. Why no VAR to intervene? Ref. point of having/not having VAR as a advantage
VAR is only used on grounds that have the technology, so basically all prem ties

Not only is Bobby Madley the worst ref in the country (which is some achievement) but it seems that he is also the only man in the country who doesn't know that Dele Alli is a cheating diver.

Hate this ‘they get a trip to Wembley stuff’ that’s getting trotted out every time someone gets a home game against Spurs.

Spurs have cheapened the whole experience of playing at Wembley in proper games.
Do tell where else we should play?

Kane running off down the tunnel is priceless.

Imagine the outrage if Utd limped past Newport and Rochdale and hadn’t won in five away games. As long as they’re at home they are an amazing team in incredible form though. Much better than the teams sat above them all season.
We'll be singing their praise when they beat Rochdale in the replay.

Well, the last thing we need (apart from losing) was a replay. But all credit to Rochdale - they deserved it and played out of their skins.

One the positive side, Moura looks to be a good signing, albeit early days yet.

The FA you mean. Spurs should have been given a ground share with Barnet

He's found his level, that's for sure

This game has left a real bad taste.

Is that Danny Murphy talking about quality showing out in the end? Quality? He's not Tom fecking Daly.
Oh my god get the feck in!!!
Talk about the emotions of the FA Cup! I was genuinely pissed off writing that first post, even though I know feck all about Rochdale. Then 15 seconds later!

Shock horror, the pundits refusing to call the dele alli dive, a dive like it was. They wouldn’t hesitate to call it as such if it were a foreign player.

Gerrin, justice done there after that dive, Madley was terrible once again
Not really. Unless Alli gets punished and refs started to be aware of his behavior, diving, stamping opposition... then there is no justice. The guy has been on the streak of these dirty things for a while. Even Poch noticed the negative around him, yet he is still getting away with it,

Nonsense. They’re great, we’re rubbish.

That clown Jenas saying it was a clear penalty when Alli was flopping like fish out of water is just a joke. If this was Martial, he'd be crucified.

That's not an answer. Let's be real, where should we play? Tell me.
When Spurs applied to be allowed play their games at Wembley, one of the conditions should have been that they play their FA Cup games away from home and should they reach the later stages, those neutral matches would be played in Cardiff.

It's not Spurs fault the FA didn't put those conditions in the deal but that's how it should have gone.

Replay will be on the 27th/28th, which might mean you'll need to push your game against Crystal Palace forward given it's meant to be played on the 26th. Replay will be sandwiched between Palace (A) and Huddersfield (H).

Thanks for adding that it isn't Spurs fault. It isn't.
