Can't remember the last time I've seen such a dull game.

Utd vs Liverpool in the PL a few weeks back. Absolute torture.

What TF is that weird whistling on the BBC?

I was half wondering if I was imagining it! It's so strange... it sounds like there's a Hunger Games rebellion mounting outside the stadium or something.

Might open things up now. Very sloppy from Rice in the build up as well. Should have put his own player through instead.

As soon as he lost that, we were in dire straits. Didn't cover himself in glory with the header while defending either.

Awful from Rice easy ball on to cause United trouble and ends up putting hisnown sode on the back foot and ultimately a goal down

After watching a rubbish 120 minute game, I always feel cheated if there's a goal scored. The excitement of a penalty shootout should be the reward for sitting through stuff like this!

Didnt realize the lad who came on up top for Westham plays for Ireland, hes been awful though

He had a stinker, i mentioned to the lads in the Westham thread he had chances to go win the ball and be free andnjust refused to run or try

happyoutscan

Played 50+ minutes and was lazy for 50+ minutes of it.

No surprise he was taken off. On that appearance, surprised he got on in the first place.

Everton with a bit of a cummyback

On what planet is that a pen?

Shanotheslayer

Thought that was a dive on first glance.

3-1

ShamoBuc

Some turnaround in less than 10 mins.

On planet David Coote.

Don't think the defender saw DCL to be honest, very little contact, just a clip,but Coote has been involved in some howlers over the last few years, especially when he's the VAR.

Shanotheslayer

Was their contact? Surely it's a pen if accidentally runs into him and trips him. Doesn't have to be on purpose.

I just thought their was no contact. If theirs minimal contact well then we're back to the ol debate

davycc

Go on lamela super chip we are not dead yet
...,2 3

Brighton deserve to win this match. I'd love to see them get a late goal.:pac:

Shanotheslayer

3-3. Mental game. Didn't expect this at all.

Sanchez double :pac:

This could end 5 5 unreal game

Scummy by Mina could be a red

He's having a bit of a nightmare out there. Two of the Everton goals shouldn't have got past him. But you'd always get the impression that there's a mistake in him.

Great match - for the neutral.

I jinxed Brighton - raging they lost.

Excellent stuff. What a game.

My daughter watching with me. She's all up for seeing penalties should the chance arise. I think they're cruel myself.

Fabulous goal, fabulous assist!

I'm watching it my mate who's a Spurs fan and we both want penalties for the entertainment factor :pac:

I can see Spurs scoring again. They just need to aim for corners

Shanotheslayer

Bad tackle by Holgate there

Agent Coulson

One day someone in a wall his going to jump up and backwards and land heavily on the lad on the ground.

Most unBrighton like goal they conceded as well!

Great cup game and why we all love football.


Are Sheff Utd going to do a Wigan on it and win the cup against all odds while going down.

Shanotheslayer

When's the draw folks?

blueser

The BBC must be raging. They had that dreadful dirge last night, while BT struck gold with that game tonight.

After an FA Cup fixture run so far of Birmingham, Cheltenham, and Swansea, it’s hard enough for yee to complain in fairness.

Harry Palmr

Good to see City finally draw a decent team (can't believe I said that!). Wolves season is dribbling away to nothing.

It's not even that good. There's only been one decent cup tie this week.


I suppose, though, the Everton/Spurs game was okay-ish as well.
