FA Cup, 2020-2021

[Ray de Galles]

He seems to have deleted his tweet. His other tweets are a bit surprising. Because they are standard lefty stuff, really. Stop being a COVIDiot, this is real and people are dying; Allison Pearson is a lying scumbag; MAGA types are traitors; evictions should be banned during a pandemic; Brexit is shit.

What did the tweet TonTon initially highlighted say?

Bloody love the FA Cup... one game away from equalling our record-breaking run of 2018-19 now, despite just over a fortnight off due to COVID cases and three of our regulars still missing today.

Also chalked up one of only three of the day's FA Cup upsets... but as its TheLikesOfDoncaster no-one on the BBC website seems to have noticed.

Has Alan:MK blocked me, or deleted his tweet?

The latter, it would appear.

Reasonably well by all accounts, tidy in possession, not out of his depth.

Glad to hear it, thanks.

Excellent win for Wycombe over Preston, albeit Preston didn't look that upset at the final whistle so they may have been holding back. Or they could have just been glad to be able to get back inside away from the freezing fog, for the last ten minutes I was willing both sides to play more football on the near touchline so I could see what was happening.

In less positive news, the FA Player was absolute gubbins, causing my Dad and I to miss three of the five goals 'live' (we did see the replays soon after). The two goals we did see in real-time were the two penalties... if it wasn't free I would have been asking for my money back.

Bugger off with "oh, that is how he jumps" so it doesn't matter the end result if that's how you naturally do it. Does that apply to other skills?

How did Ryan Galvin get on?

[ursus arctos]

Blackpool send Big Sam home on penalties

[Snake Plissken]

God. You wait ages for a penalty and five turn up at once.

[Toby Gymshorts]

YES. Fuck off, Franchise.

[Toby Gymshorts]

I doubt I'll ever say this again, but....

Come on Burnley.

*shudder*

EDIT: Pls don't ban me, Snake.

[Gangster Octopus]

So will Burnley's famed skill with penalties defeat evil?

[Amor de Cosmos]

If the QPR striker had controlled the ball there he would have been clean in.

Dykes is totally snake-bit.

[DCI Harry Batt]

Fantastic assist from Liam Shaw wraps it up for us and he celebrates in front of the away end. There would have been some "limbs" (as young people say) at that. Good cupset from us, well done fellas.

Woo hoo! Our tie with Fulham is being shown live locally tomorrow.


Which, naturally, makes us triple losers: local derby, on TV, cup-tie. Not a cheese fondue's chance in the Arctic.

Still 0-0 after 88 minutes...

[Janik]

Praet just pulled his hamstring stretching to collect a through ball - if he had picked it up it would likely have ended up as an excellent goal. Slings and arrows of outrageous fortune and all that.
