If you go out and think it’s going to be a nice little stroll then you usually come unstuck.

There is a remarkable likeness.
RM keeper Navas getting away with murder. Should have had a straight red then was yards of his line before pen was taken.

Fantastic for the cup as these clubs will be dreaming of some mighty giant killing.

Perhaps if they charged less they might get more paying customers.

Suspect the chairman's would have really preferred the draws to be away for a mega pay day. However nice one for the fans.
I have been to one of these minnow v giant matches. Its a brilliant day, whatever the result. The 'premier' team' were scared to death, wouldn't use the changing rooms, and changed at their hotel ! Couldn't get in and out quick enough .
The minnows do have a genuine chance on their home turf in these matches. The millionaires just want to avoid injury. Desire and passion can win on over skill sometimes.

No need to go to the match, it's on the telly or on down the pub. The crowd will be cgi'd in ultra ultra HD in future. The players were cgi'd long ago.....

Over 54,000 at Anfield and more than 73,000 at Old Trafford on Friday night without reducing prices.

But they can fill their grounds all the time Jim due to their massive support.

And then the minnows get less in revenue, spuds cost Wimbledon hundreds of thousands with their deal and I'm surprised it was allowed to happen. It's hardly in keeping with the cups ethos but hey, as long as it looks good on the telly who cares about the little clubs
